Two-minute movie review: Mr. Perfect


Prabhas is perfect in Mr. Perfect 

Hero Prabhas is perfect in Mr. Perfect. He plays a cool guy who has a big attitude. He has his own theory and beliefs. The two heroines, Kajal Agarwal and Tapsee also have somewhat similar ideas.

The film is all about whether the three of them are right in their likes, dislikes and beliefs.

What is good?

Prabhas
Kajal Agarwal
Tapsee
Music
Locations
Overall mood of the film

What is bad? 

Story (partly)
Screenplay
Direction
Editing
Coemdy
Slow pace of the film

Verdict: 
Prabhas is perfect in Mr. Perfect. The film is not. There are several shortcomings and glitches. Still, Mr. Perfect is a  clean and decent film that can be watched by the entire family.
