Our Quick Review Robinhood
I watched Robinhood in theatres, hoping for a high-energy masala ride. Visually it’s slick, and there are laughs, especially in the first half. Nithiin looks confident, and the comedy works well in patches. But after some promise, the momentum dies. The comparisons to a tale of a modern-day Robin Hood are fun, but the storytelling feels dated. Music and action are good, but plot-wise it needed more punch. Still, it’s worth a watch at home for fans of light-hearted Telugu cinema.

Conclusion
Robinhood had all the ingredients: star power, catchy music, and a trendy cameo. Yet, it faltered due to high expectations and weak word-of-mouth. I enjoyed the entertaining first half and Nithiin’s energy, but the slow fading plot weighed it down. It’s not a disaster to watch at home, especially for Telugu film lovers, but don’t expect blockbuster thrills. In my view, it’s a flop, but it’s still worth a relaxed evening on OTT.
