|  Dongala  Muta is tipped to be a high entertainment thriller. However, Ram Gopal  Varma   unveils another dimension in this thriller genre. Dongala Muta  movie was shot in 5 days on a   shoe-strong budget and what can you  expect from a movie with the above facts? There's   nothing in the  story. In fact the story is not gripping and screenplay is also not  absorbing   and Ram Gopal Varma once again fails to narrate a thriller.
   Dongala Muta is not so   fascinating in terms of movie content and  its only the movie stats – shooting duration and   budget that's  thrilling.   After Raktha Charitra and KSD Appala Raju, Ram Gopal Varma  experiments on a thriller   movie and fumbles. With best of the casting  taking center stage, the focus should be on   gripping screenplay and  content but Ram Gopal Varma was focusing more to sensationalize   the  movie rather the content, like he did for KSD Appala Raju. Donagala Muta  failure once   again proves that its the content that is important and  not the budget, casting and shooting   days.   Donagala Muta movie loses grip as it progresses, particularly in the  second half where   there's nothing going. The screenplay is poor and  wayward and the content is also   exaggerated at times with nothing to  be thrilled upon. And a pathetic climax is the last thing   you need for  a comic thriller. Donagala Muta movie project itself is wonderful, but  the movie   content will not give you such a feel as if you are in store  for something unique.   Its just Ram   Gopal Varma's wild imagination to roll out  something  unprecedented in Tollywood. The   story appears to be illogical, but we  just cannot stop ourselves from appreciating Ram   Gopal Varma for his  initiative.  Performances  Ravi Teja has done well – Once again its  brand Ram Gopal Varma that has prompted   everyone  to experiment such roles.   Ravi Teja looks energetic, but his emotional   performance could at  times go overboard. Charmi is adequate and the camera angles used   to  show Charmi is understandable.   Manchu Lakshmi looks to be a misfit.  May be her dialogues are not that powerful enough for   a police officer  role. Sunil, Brahmanandam and Prakash Raj though not great, but were    reasonably good   Plus Points
