Review: The story of Gentleman is something new and interesting. The Director touched two interesting subjects like Sleeping beauty syndrome and Embryo trade both of which are interesting. The movie brings together all the emotions of sentiments, action, comedy also with interesting twists making the film an action thriller. The movie casting was perfectly done. Prajwal understood clearly the character of a person who has a sleeping disorder and has done justice to the role. All the other supporting actors have done their roles well. Characterization is good. Screenplay is perfect. BGM is apt. Editing and Cinematography are applaudable. The twists and turns in the second half may have been delivered in a better way. This movie is an emotional action-packed message-oriented movie definitely worth watching. One of the best Kannada movies in the recent times.
