Marco

Watched the movie in the theater on the first day and have to say, had mixed feelings. The action scenes, bgm and some of the acting are top notch in Marco. It was also interesting to see mollywood upping the boundaries to unseen levels in some of the action sequences. However, what let's Marco down, big time, is the lack of a good story and hilarious lines in serious situations. There is no logic of rationale to Marco's aggression cos the killing of his brother and their relationship etc. Is not well established. Jagadeesh's character is quite interesting, but who asks fora threesome when he is about to get killed? Unni's dialogue delivery falls flat in certain areas as well. And of course the last action sequences, where Unni gets beaten back and blue and then gets up takes a shower and kills everyone. I mean, really? I hope we malayalees can hold films to a better standard than hailing this movie, cos to be honest, it's a very weak attempt overall. Hope this inspires future movie makers to adopt such visceral action, but with a good story.

The makers delivered exactly what they said they would and made the movie as violent as possible. Typical revenge driven storyline centered around a family, nothing out of the ordinary. Pretty weak script when it comes to majority of dialogues, but can be compensated with the performances and overall vibe that the film gives throughout the movie. Background score was phenomenal the whole way through. Coming to the performances, Unnimukundan was incredible and is perfectly fit for the role and he convincingly pulls of all the action scenes, Jagdish and Siddique delivered incredibly with some drawbacks that could have been solved with proper dialogues. Action scenes were mind blowing, and looked to be on par with some of the greatest action hollywood films (not kidding) with incredible cinematography and shots.

Now the main part, the film is a gorefest especially in the 2nd half. No other Indian film comes anywhere near when it comes to the violence that this movie contains and is STRICTLY NOT FOR KIDS, PREGNANT WOMEN OR FAINT HEARTED PEOPLE. Extremely brutal torture scenes, murders, slashings and brutal injuries the whole way through. Overall an incredible action packed movie that could be the new benchmark for not even Malayalam but Indian action movies.

Worst move. Violent & gory just for the sake of it. Don't be mistaken I have watched "I Saw The Devil" & "Old Boy" they are violent cuz the story demands it.

In this case is dumb, stupid and plain nonsensical.

Absolute garbage of a movie. Very disappointed to see such a movie from Malayalam industry where generally most of the movies are amazing in story and acting.

No story at all. Unnecessary bg and slomo, over hyped.

Pointless killings gore. Absolute torture of 2 hours and 24 mins.

1st half you still feel okay it's leading some where. But the 2nd half wow During the entire time I was scratching my head thinking just when will this end.

First of all , the story is straight up mediocre and a common story from old movie . It's the fight scenes and last 30 minutes that made the movie lit.. The cinematography, Camera , editing , and especially music is top notch..

People were claiming it to be violent from beginning to end and i bet they haven't watched Hollywood, Indonesian french movies like inside , Night comes for us etc ... There is a lot of space for improvement in case of fight as most fight was using hand..i was expecting something like raid , but was just normal fight scene with some violence here and there .. Huge let down is from cgi team.. when a person is attacked using knife , blood is shown splattering which is clearly cgi and we can see it.. could've used real blood or atleast a better cgi.. Could ve used the chainsaw scenes better.. Felt like wasted opportunity. The stair case fight was technically and stylistically great , but action wise not good.hits people with something and shows fake cgi blood. And most scenes are done in dark to cover up bad cgi .

Some dialogues were cringe, and unnecessary.. some dialogues were fire.. It's actually a mixed bag saved by the intensely disturbing last 30 minutes. I don't think people would sit and watch the portion before the last 30 minutes when it's released on Netflix.

When it says intermission, i was like.. what.. nothing happened so far.. that's how bad the story is.. could've been better . But i wouldn't mind if from the beginning till end the movie was the same as the last 30 minutes..

Casting were all good.. unni did great.. Could've used more props in fight scenes than using bare hands.. Could've used prosthetic body and fake blood to show cutting and stabbing than using cgi .

Anyway recommend watching for the last 30 minutes.

After the success of films like KGF and Animal, it seems filmmakers are trying to capitalize on the hype, often to the detriment of quality. This trend is evident in Marco, a movie with a weak storyline and glaring lapses in logic. In one scene, the protagonist watches helplessly as a minor villain slaughters an entire group in front of him. Yet moments later, he is miraculously healed and manages to wipe out the antagonist's entire gang. Scenes like this are sprinkled throughout the movie, making it feel more comical than compelling. The excessive violence is portrayed so casually that it feels more like watching the butchering of livestock than a cinematic experience. Overall, Marco fails to deliver anything meaningful, relying solely on gratuitous violence and nonsensical plot points. I found myself laughing at the absurdity more than being engaged in the story.
