Critics Review

A disappointing fare

Even if you're a fan of the brand of entertainment that one could expect from a Balakrishna film, Ruler can frustrate you as a viewer. With such lack of imagination and shoddy narration, the film leaves you with a migraine.(more)

Old School Action Drama

Ruler is a typical mass drama that is aimed at Balayya's fans. They will love him in a posh and mass avatar but the story and narration are just ordinary. The second half falls flat as the proceedings showcased are slow and over the top making this film a below-par watch this weekend. Watch it only for Balayya and nothing else.(more)

Outrageously Bad

Frankly, we have to use a microscope to look for one positive aspect in this movie that is replete with boredom.(more)

Purely for the fans

The hero gets elevated at each level and it becomes a tale of heroic exploits and nothing else. Those who like the hero's dances, fights and dialogues and want to have fun can surely watch this movie. The rest can avoid it.(more)
