Original Reliance DVD Review: Epic and lush - I knew what I was expecting when I purchased this. I had the quiet joy of seeing Bahubali the Conclusion in a local theater. My only concern was whether or not I would understand it. Silly me. With the simple touch of a setting, the hidden words became understandable. But even without such technology you become immersed into the story through the skill of acting. The haute of the Queen Mother, the pride of a willfull and capable princess, the ease and occasional naivety of the prince, and the sorrow of unwilling and inescapable betrayal. Epic story, lush scenery, engaging characters and a curiosity to see whether things will come to pass. Review: One of the best Bollywood's I've ever seen! - Cross an Avengers/Marvel/DC comics film with Lord of the Rings & THEN make it a musical... presto! Bahubali! It amazes me how SO much drama, comedy, action, & adventure can be put into one epic film (be ready to sit a while or watch in installments - it's LONG, but you won't mind because it SO good) by Bollywood and THEN you get to watch part 2!! Of course, buy BOTH!! "I laughed, I cried, it moved me, Bob" (nod to VeggieTales; yes, I enjoy them too) so if you like Bollywood in general & speak Hindi and/or don't mind reading subtitles (no, it's not dubbed into English), I HIGHLY recommend Bahubali!!!

Epic and lush
I knew what I was expecting when I purchased this. I had the quiet joy of seeing Bahubali the Conclusion in a local theater. My only concern was whether or not I would understand it. Silly me.

One of the best Bollywood's I've ever seen!

Pleasantly Surprised!
I am so pleased a friend recommended this movie! It was GREAT! So much so that after my son watched it with me, he promptly "appropriated" it and I now have to purchase another copy for myself. Yes, it was a somewhat overly dramatic, but that actually added to its charm. I found it refreshing to see so many strong women cast in this movie. The plot was very detailed and it was visually stunning from start to finish. I cannot wait until the conclusion in 2016!

Bahubali
I would give the movie 5 🌟 stars. The dvd is not as colorful as on the TV version. I do prefer the hindi version the language flows and sounds nice. Favorite actors besides Prabhus, are Anyska Shetty, Ramya Krishnan, Sathyaraj. Watch over and over. Just stunning. Is one of my top 10 movies. I don't like the English speaking version, because somehow you loose something. A must watch!!

I just love it! I saw it on a plane ride ...
This movie is so ridiculous and over the top, I just love it! I saw it on a plane ride and decided to share it with my friends which lead to many laughs. It's a long move, about 3 hours almost, but is totally worth the watch. Bollywood may not be to everyone's taste, but I recommend this movie as it was my first experience with the genre and I loved it. I say watch with an open mind, a drink or two, and some friends for a good time!

Great story, strong men and women roles
This is a great story line, with decent visual effects and solid acting and strong roles for both genders. My son (14 at the time) and I saw this in the movie theater when it came out and thoroughly enjoyed it. It looks like both Holly and Bolly woods are going to have strong competition from Tollywood. It's great to see another strong film production center getting international play. We bought the DVD so he could share it with his mom. The only negative for us were some obvious racial connotations late in the movie. That was a bit jarring to American eyes used to a more balanced multi-cultural experience.

For certified warmongers who relish 40 minute long battle sequences
It may have grossed a mountain of currency worldwide, but this computer enhanced tale of Southern Indian make believe is no 'Jodha Akbar". Unless you are tough enough for 40 minute-long blood and gore battle sequences, go for a "Peace Now" march and feel you have fulfilled your human destiny. A classic tale of a throne's heir brought up by villager foster parents, finally finding love and revenge.

WOW... This movie is Too Good To Be True... Love the Story, Characters, Songs and Special Effects (Visual + Audio)... Saw this Awesome-Beautiful-Amazing movie 3 times, at the PVR... The last time, I saw an Indian Film in the movie-hall was almost 17 years ago (Kuch Kuch Hota Hai in 1998)... So this LONG wait for a Good Movie was very much Worth it... Have watched this DVD atleast 20 times (besides having watched Bahubali, almost 10-12 times on TV)... Totally in LOVE with the Tall, Dark, Handsome, Rustic Shiva... Love You, Bahubali... Chumma :-)

Certainly one of the best epic drama of Indian cinema ever made with such dedication. There is not only war sequences but some powerful performances also specially by Prabhas and Rana.And the role of Shivagami played by Ramya Krishna is small but much appreciated. Bahubali is not only a movie but also a hope for Hindi cinema which enlighten a torch for better cinema culture in India.Now talking of the DVD,amazon delivery was quick and sound quality is good.Some small issues are related with packaging.The DVD cover was scratched a bit.Please pay attention to these small loop holes also although other packaging and delivery time was simply good
