Do not watch

This movie being rated 9.5 is a complete joke. It doesn't deserve even half a star. Everything about it is awful-the acting is laughably bad, the dialogue feels like it was written by a 5-year-old, and the story? Don't even get me started. It's an incoherent mess that drags on forever with no payoff. Every attempt at humor or emotion was so painfully cringy, I wanted to turn it off 10 minutes in. The directing is sloppy, the cinematography is bland, and the soundtrack is obnoxious. Honestly, I can't believe people are hyping this garbage. It's hands-down one of the worst movies I've ever seen. A total insult to anyone who values their time. Save yourself the agony and avoid this catastrophe at all costs.

Textbook example of a disgusting movie

I watched this movie seeing the high rating on IMDB. But this is one of the worst movie i have ever seen in my life. Acting so bad that even Ekta Kapoor daily soaps feel better. Characters are immensely superficial. At many places, this movie seems so pretentious and cool just for the sake of it. Unnecessary weird camera angles, lighting so bad that every location feels like a cheap.shady bar. I am just amazed if all the 10 out of 10 ratings are paid bots. The non linear narration felt so boring as there were no information revealing agenda. Its just a wanna be cool amateur film. At best its a decent student film. Wasted 2 hours of my life. Highly not recommended.

Super

A Cinematic Experiment You'll Either Love or Hate" Ram Yogi Velgapudi's EVOL: A Love Story in Reverse is exactly what it claims to be-an experiment. And like most experiments, there's a chance it could fail. But here's the kicker: it doesn't. At least, not entirely.The film's strength lies in its technical mastery. The camera work is slick, the editing precise, and the reverse storytelling is an interesting gimmick... for a while. You can tell that every shot, every scene, was meticulously crafted. Velgapudi clearly knows his way around a camera. The way he plays with light and shadow? It's gorgeous. You could watch the film on mute and still be impressed. The technical team deserves a standing ovation.But here's the thing: if you strip away the pretty visuals and the reverse narrative trickery, what's left? Not much. The story, as far as I can tell, is supposed to be a deconstruction of love. But instead of feeling moved, I just felt... disoriented. The characters, despite their best efforts, are more like chess pieces in Velgapudi's grand game of "how many rules can I break before the audience gives up?"And yet, there's something to be said for the sheer audacity of the project. Telugu cinema needs more films like this-films that aren't afraid to take risks. Velgapudi dares to do what most filmmakers wouldn't even consider: throwing every conventional rule of storytelling out the window. It's a bold move. But is bold enough?Ultimately, EVOL is a film for cinephiles who love to dissect every frame, every choice, every unconventional beat. If you're one of those people, you'll probably walk out of the theater proclaiming Velgapudi a genius. If you're not, you'll walk out wondering what in the world you just watched.
