Joe Russo, the American filmmaker, recently showered praise on SS Rajamouli's Pan-Indian film RRR. He noted that the film is a “well done epic. 

Joe and his brother Anthony Russo, credited for directing blockbusters such as Captain America: Winter Soldier, Captain America: Civil War and two Avengers films, were on a three-day trip to India to promote their Netflix film The Gray Man.

Speaking to PTI at an event in Mumbai on Friday, Joe said that he watched RRR after it became available on the streaming platform Netflix and found it to be a great story about brotherhood.

"I thought it was really a well done epic, (with) nice strong themes, great visuals and a really powerful story about brotherhood," Joe added.

The epic action-drama featured Jr NTR and Ram Charan in the lead roles. RRR ensemble star cast includes Ajay Devgn, Alia Bhatt, Shriya Saran, Samuthirakani, Ray Stevenson, Alison Doody, and Olivia Morris. RRR is a fictional story that revolves around two real-life Indian revolutionaries, Alluri Sitarama Raju (Charan) and Komaram Bheem (Rama Rao), and their fight against the British Raj. The film opened to positive reviews and fared well at the box office. Released theatrically in March, the film has garnered over Rs 1,200 crore at the global box office and it later premiered on Netflix on May 20.

In recent weeks, an array of Hollywood artists, including Doctor Strange director Scott Derrickson and writer C Robert Cargill, Joe Dante of Gremlins fame, Guardians of the Galaxy films director James Gunn, Dune screenwriter Jon Spaihts and filmmaker Christopher Miller, have lauded the film for being an extravagant visual spectacle.
