KGF All Critic Reviews & Ratings
- 1Films | Review By - Aditya | Rating-3/5
KGF is a well shot film, and is a worthy attempt by Prashanth Neel and team, and you can definitely watch it once.
- Times of India | Review By - Sunayana Suresh | Rating-3.5/5
The screenplay is the most interesting part of the film. The non-linear pattern keeps the viewers engaged, with the growth of Rocky being shown in a steady fashion.
- Bangalore Mirror | Review By - Shyam Prasad S | Rating-2.5/5
If you want entertainment, KGF is not the place to be. Even Srinidhi Shetty and Tamannaah fail to excite.
- First Post | Review By - Subha J Rao | Rating-3/5
That way, KGF: Chapter 1 tries a little too hard. The film has a solid story line. But, KGF: Chapter 1 fails to tap into the emotional side of the characters.
- Deccan Herald | Review By - Vivek MV | Rating-4/5
The slow motions, camera angles and background scores are placed aptly for the hero, making KGF the biggest mass entertainer of the year.

The impressively-mounted sets make up for Prashanth Neel's flimsy storyline. Composer Ravi Basrur lifts up the scenes with his terrific background orchestra
- Deccan Chronicle | Review By - Shashiprasad SM | Rating-2.5/5
A bird with golden wings cannot fly, and so is KGF which only shines but fails to offer a soulful experience in the end!
- Scroll | Review By - Archana Nathan | Rating-2/5
The resultant 155-minute mixture is an over-the-top and prolonged saga that feels like an endless attempt to mine good material where there is none.
- Hindustan Times | Review By - Priyanka Sundar | Rating-3/5
The visuals are consistently stunning. For instance, the bloody and raw climax takes your breath away.
- Times of India | Review By - Reza Noorani | Rating-3/5
Filmmaker Prashanth Neel has laid out the set-pieces quite well for a cracking sequel, which we hope, will be far better than this film.
- India Today | Review By - Janani K | Rating-3/5
Director Prashanth Neel's story is fascinating to listen to and the impressive visuals add to the film's intensity.
- Film Companion | Review By - Karthik Keramalu | Rating-3/5
KGF isn’t a drab fare. Nonetheless, it falls short of becoming a great movie by a long mile.
