Rocky Handsome

Not many may know that Nishikant Kamat is a very well trained theatre actor.

You will love Nishikant's in his role. It was such a joy to watch him turn into this evil character. Another actor was supposed to play that role. Just two days before the shooting that actor opted out. Nishikant had to step in by default. And what a mind blowing performance he has given!

Overall movie is very nice that is why i have given 8 out of 10. But I am really very very impressed with the acting of Director Nishikant Kamat. He is genius, his impressions oh my god amazing. I love to watch him again and again, will wait for his next Act.

Whole movie is Just good. but fighting scenes are really awesome. actually I never show such scenes in any Bollywood movie. most IMP is they look damn real. John did awesome job. I just wished if they have worked little more on this movie, this could have been PERFECT movie.

+ Points :-

+ Action Scense + That Shruti Scene + Story + 2 Hour Movie + Only 2 Songs + Dark & Brutal

• Points

• Little boring after start - Not so good dialogs/speech - One of the villain's Stupid & over Acting - Death of main Villain was not as it should be

I recommended to watch this one. Its better than Airlift and BVS.

"How far would you go to save the person closest to you" ?? A remake of a Korean film "Man From Nowhere, "Rocky Handsome" is a taut thriller that is going to keep you on the edge of seat without giving a chance to blink your eyes.

"Rocky Handsome" is a story of an unforgiving man who embarks on a journey to avenge when the only person he cares about is kidnapped and taken away from him.

From the director of "Force" (Hindi) and "Drishyam", Nishikant Kamat does a fabulous job in holding your attention right from the beginning till the end. The first half is pretty straight forward until the main drama unfolds when the kidnapping of little girl takes place. From here onward, the drama-thriller is full of well- executed action choreography with each scene giving you goosebumps. If the first half is a drama story, the second half is actual plot where the suspense begins to unfold with nail-biting moments and jaw-dropping scenes. The background fight scene during the song "Teri Toh Yaad Sataye" is one of the major highlight of the film. Even the climax scene has been well-executed.

On the flip side, the story is pretty average with nothing new to offer along with loose screenplay which could have been crispier. Action scenes is the highlight of the film and deserves brownie points for keeping you engaged. Editing is good. Cinematography capturing the dark underworld sequences appropriately. Art direction is nice. Songs are tuneful. Performance-wise, it is John Abraham all the way. Though his expressions are same throughout the film, he carries the film with his well-defined sculpted body and good performance. Nishant Kamat, first time as a actor, does well as villain. The child actor Divya Chalwad does justice to her role. Shruti Hassan is wasted in a special appearance.

Overall, "Rocky Handsome" is a treat for action film lovers. Well executed action sequences and death-defying stunts will keep you engaged. Good 3/5

Whoaaa... ‪John Abraham has started a new era of action with ‪ROCKY HANDSOME. Watched the movie yesterday evening and seriously... Such action is for the first time in history of bollywood.

Even though the story is average, its very well executed and John's action has added flying colours to it. Its purely an action flick with amazing sequences of intense action. Director Nishikant Kamat has played villain in the movie. He has also acted very well. Last but not the least, the child actor Niomi on which the entire film revolves has acted brilliantly. Three cheers to her.

Do watch the movie but I suggest not to take your child with you for the movie. Also the movie is not for faint hearted. Please keep this in mind before going for the movie.

"Rocky handsome" is a testimony to John Abraham's skills range and talent quantum. Among his so many appearances, this movie is probably the best after "Madras Café". John has successfully transformed himself from an average actor to a strong performer who knows right expressions, energy, dialog tone and matching action traits at the right moment. The subject of the plot is quite touching, sensitive and social that tries to highlight the mayhem created as a result of drugs and child trafficking. The director has done a reasonable job to portray and execute all the characters in a logical sequence. But the highlight remains "John's Action" and " Body Language". The action scenes have been shot with great skill, technique and perfection. John Abrahams does a fair justice to his martial arts skills which will remind you of "Keon Reeves" of "John Wick". The body language is perfectly matching to the persona of a high profile "special agent" and one gets the feeler of a real time hero every now and then. The film has been taken to the climax in a smooth way and hence the climax has been shot in a befitting manner closing all the issues, characters and chaos in the end. The director has not left any stone unturned and deserves applause for it. Overall, a fantastic topic, a good movie and a great direction despite being short of mega cast and stars.
