The first part of the film is completely filled with comedy. The scenes that come up till the interval make the audience laugh.
The emotional scenes in the second part are decent, but it would have been better if there was more gripping narration in some places. Venky Kudumula's trademark comedy scenes are the main attraction of this film.
Actors' Performance
Nithiin has once again given a settled performance in this film under Venky's direction. Apart from looking stylish in action sequences, he made his mark in comedy timing and emotional scenes.
His comedy scenes with Rajendra Prasad were well worked out. Heroine Srileela played her role effectively. Her chemistry with Nithiin was once again a success, and some comedy scenes around her were well done.
Devadatta Nage played a wonderful role as the villain. He mesmerized the audience by showing the negative shade of his character in range from the beginning. Goodbye

Technical aspects
The production values of this film are strong. However, in one or two places, the VFX work is not set properly. Especially in one scene, a blood stain on Nithiin's face is clearly visible as graphics, care should be taken in such matters.
The music provided by G.I. Prakash is good, the cinematography is decent. The editing is okay, but the flow would have been better if some unnecessary songs were cut.
Direction
Venky Kudumula impresses once again as a director with this film. His detailing, action scene taking, and stylish vision are visible in this film. However, although the story is hilarious, some scenes with the backdrop of marijuana seem routine.
You get the feeling that you have seen many such stories in the past. But, the motive and emotional connections given to the hero are impressive.
Overall
"Robinhood 2025" is a decent entertainer that combines all the emotions. Venky Mark's comedy scenes, emotional moments, and Nithiin-Devadatta Nagela's performances are the strengths of the film.
A little more gripping narration would have been better. However, "Robinhood 2025" offers a decent treat for those looking for a time-pass entertainer on the weekend.
