User ‘raviprabhu’ wrote, “Just watched @iVishnuManchu Kannappa in the USA. Slower first half and a more engaging second half. Vishnu’s performance is stellar and top notch; more than 17 min of Prabhas’s screen time. Ending is intense. Vishnu Tried very hard to create an epic and the movie is worth watching. 3.5🌟/5 for me #KannappaMovie #kannappareview #VishnuManchu #Prabhas‌ #Mohanlal.”

Another user, ‘dune1411’ wrote, “#Kannappa reviews are pouring everywhere: 1st half average, 2nd half blockbuster...Positives: Prabhas cameo..Last 20 mins performance by vishnu anna..BGM...#BlockbusterKannappa.”

Another one, ‘Nikhilpushpa847’ commented, “#Kannappa Review : 1st half bgm and some sence are worth migtha motham dolaa...2nd half lo last 15 to 20 min acting of @iVishnuManchu...anna kuta ramp u asaluu 🔥🔥🔥🔥 screen presence mind-blowing 🙏🔥🔥And second half lo #prabhas entry and screen presence worth movie..”

X user ‘SumitkadeI’ called it, “#KanappaReview..Rating - ⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟 ( 3.5 ) …Just watched #Kanappa, and I still can’t shake off the last 30 minutes from my mind. The only time I’ve felt something this intense was during the climax of #Kantara. Audiences - especially devotees of Lord Shiva will be left in tears. The climax is spine-chilling, emotionally overpowering and goosebumps inducing…The film is based on the true story of a warrior who fought for his people and tribe but didn’t believe in God and how he eventually becomes the greatest devotee of Lord Shiva. You’ll witness this transformation unfold on screen….The film is long and the first half suffers due to its slow pace. But the interval block, terrific #Mohanlal’s sequence, #Prabhas Fantastic cameo, and above all, the climax, take the film to another level altogether…..#VishnuManchu was born to play Kanappa. His performance is top-notch - he pours his soul into both the action and emotional scenes, and it shows on the big screen. His acting in the last 15 minutes could define his career ,the audience will shower immense love on this role……#AkshayKumar embodies Lord Shiva with sheer perfection,radiating divine aura and purity that leaves a lasting impact. #KajalAggarwal as Maa Parvati is graceful and emotionally resonant, while #MohanBabu delivers a superlative performance ….Overall, Kanappa is a good film. The slow pace and modest production values are its weak points, but the last 40 minutes featuring Vishnu Manchu memorable performance , along with Mohanlal, Akshay Kumar as Lord Shiva, and Prabhas as Rudra, make it worth watching…@iVishnuManchu”
