Rorschach

Rorschach is exactly the kind of out-of-the-box genre-blending film that gives me a big kick. One of Mammootty's most delightfully wicked performances, with ample space for dark humour and little 'mass' moments. Also, it's refreshing to see a soundtrack full of English tracks.

Luke Antony delivers a revenge which audience has to decide how much is the impact of it. One of the best Technically Brilliant movie with an open script.midhunmohanan has delivered his career best BGM. #Mammootty The Performer.

Many people may not understand or may dislike the film,but that's ok. Excellently made by nisam basheer Sameer abdul nice score by MM dop nimish👌mammukka is at peak form cast also did gud.

This film was not as expected but it is not bad by any means. I loved the whole concept of telling a revenge story in a different manner. It sometimes resembled shutter island here and there. Mammukka was great throughout. But something was missing don't know what, maybe its because i had high hopes. Time jumps was a bit confusing at the beginning but nearing the first half it all made sense. The background score was excellent it kept maintaining the whole vibe of the film. The film starts of with an accident and from there it leads to chain of incidents that all end up being related to each other and gives Luke (Mammukka) his redemption and revenge. But there are many plot holes here and there so there is another problem. But it is entertaining and a different approach that could have been a little more better.... All i can say with out spoiling anything is that it kills an already dead person again.

Usually, a revenge thriller concludes with the demise or fall of the antagonist, but this movie's plot starts from that point. Which makes this film somewhat distinct from other films.

I don't think so that there's a need to mention about Mammootty's performance in this movie, as usual he nailed. To an extent, we can call this a one-man show of Mammootty.

The making of this film is incredible, the screenplay is gripping and the transition of the character played by Bindu Panicker was something we all have never seen from her before. Glad that they didn't stuff any unnecessary songs in between to cut the flow of the movie. This is not exactly an edge-of-the-seat thriller, this is more of a slow burner.

A thriller/mysty movie about luke filing a police compliant of his wife missing after an accident. The story progresses with new revelations and we finally get to know the last of luke and his intentions and reason for his current visit.

The story is elevated by star cast who makes it convincing and director Nissam who handles the flow in a different way. The cinematgraphy captures the natural beauty of the locale and the characters in their raw getup which eleviates the end effect. The use of English songs also makes the tratment different.

Mamooty is superb as Luke.

Jaddish was a big revelation to me in this movie, he is excellent. As far as i remember this is the first time he gets to play a role like this and he does a fantastic job. Hope he plays more such real characters in the future.

Bindu Panikkar as seetha is mindblowing.

Grace does a marvellous job, another feather in her cap after Appan.

Other significant performances that stand out are Sharafudheen & Kottayam Nazeer.

Rorschach (2022) : Brief Review -

A must-see only because we rarely get to see such psychologically complex supernatural revenge dramas in Indian cinema. Those who know the meaning of 'Rorschach' know that it is a psychologically complex term, and it is very much unbelievable. Those who don't know anything about it are the happiest people on the planet. Joke aside, but seriously, this Rorschach thing will disturb your peaceful mind. Do you remember that scarecrow thing from Christopher Nolan's "Batman Begins"? It was inspired by the Rorschach process, but with extreme effects. Nissam Basheer's Rorschach brings that intricate formula to Indian cinema with one of the finest actors the country has ever seen, The Mammootty. The combination is enough to get your nod for the viewing. Mammootty plays Luke Anthony, who has a mysterious past and is out on a mission to seek revenge from someone who has deeply destroyed him. The revenge is regular, just like any other film, but the process is new and extremely complex. It may bore you in the first half, but you have to be patient to realise how it is going to explain everything by the end. The director has added a couple of typical action scenes just to entertain you, but frankly, it is contrary to the kind of intelligent cinema he was trying to make. I mean, you can't expect Nolan's thriller to have an explosive action scene like a Michael Bay film, right? Nissam Basheer makes that mistake here, but hardly for 5 minutes. The predictability factors are less here because the majority of our Indian audiences are completely unaware of this theme, and moreover, the supernatural theme makes things difficult for your predictions. The performance, screenplay and music are pluses, while the direction and storyline fumble a little. Nevertheless, it's a worthwhile experience if you're bored of watching regular suspense thrillers and revenge dramas.

RATING - 6.5/10*
