Rorschach

RORSCHACH

A slow-paced drama thriller from Nissam Basheer. First of all its a slow film. A revenge story. The film on the technically an outstanding film. The background scores, the song, the soundmixing were all nice. The visuals were amazing. When looked upon the acting base everyone did their best especially Bindhu Panikkar she was just amazing and Mammokka's acting was amazing some scenes were creepy as gell The film can be a dual perspective film - A psychological thriller, or a horror drama thriller. The action sequences were breathtaing. Story was also a good one, a revenge story. But the main drawback is the pace itself. It's not everyone's cup of tea. Slow pace may be a bit laggy for some, mainly the first half was a bit too long, but intresting. Unveiling the main plot, it was long, but second half was good. Overall its a good theatre experience but not everyone's cup of tea.

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*

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 big request to mamooty Kampany & Wayfarer Films : please don't give remake rights to Bollywood Kollywood or sandalwood they will spoil.

Not at all for a commercial audience who expects comedy and songs

Also it's not at all a usual screenplay with hero introduction heroine villain etc etc

This movie is for the audience who already watched different kind of scripts and screenplay in foreign movies and expecting when can we get the same feeling by seeing our stars on screen.

Bindu panicker and grace Antony acting was outstanding in this screenplay

It's time to make world to see south indian movies are giving quality scripts more than them.

Thanks to director and the whole team

Thanks for the superstar mamooty for choosing this script and giving us your best acting.

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.
