Overblown yet riotously entertaining action romp courtesy of Indian director S.S. Rajamouli. Its two Bollywood leads are very cool as they effortlessly use their martial arts skills to take out dastardly Brits or punch a tiger with a flaming torch. The set-pieces are grandly absurd but showcase Rajamouli's eye for big budget spectacle. It does clock at a mammoth three hours but the friendship between the two protagonists keeps things watchable when there's no fights going on. Special mention to Ray Stevenson and Alison Doody hamming it up as the villains.
