RRR has been making waves internationally ever since its premiere on Netflix. After garnering praises from numerous global celebrities, the Ram Charan and NTR Jr starrer has now added another feather to its hat as it has topped USA Today’s list of ‘best movies of 2022’.
The elite list features some of the biggest Hollywood releases such as Robert Pattinson’s The Batman and Tom Cruise’s Top Gun Maverick, but the SS Rajamouli directorial eclipsed them all to gain the numero uno position.
At the moment, there is an unprecedented craze for RRR among the international audience as well as the foreign press. While listing the film at the topmost spot in their list, USA Today wrote, “S.S. Rajamouli's exuberant and bromantic 1920s-set Indian musical epic is the one movie everyone must see. Equal parts historical fiction and gonzo superhero story, "RRR" boasts three hours of over-the-top adventure, high-stakes emotion, true love, great songs, wild animals and even some dance fighting.”
Further, heaping praises on the two lead actors, the description read, “But the main men make it all work: N.T. Rama Rao Jr. plays a burly warrior sent to Delhi to bring back a girl captured from his tribe by British colonialists, and Ram Charan is an officer in the English army who becomes his best bud but has hard decisions to make in regards to his loyalties.”
While The Batman occupies the second position in the list, The Fallout and Top Gun Maverick take the next two spots, respectively.
Earlier, RRR received accolades from Batman Beyond, Captain America writer Jackson Lanzing, Hollywood comedian and actor Patton Oswalt and Doctor Strange co-writer C. Robert Cargill.
Also featuring Alia Bhatt and Ajay Devgn, the action drama did a staggering business of over Rs 1000 crore worldwide upon its theatrical release.
