The introduction was fine, but as the story progressed, everything collapsed like a house of cards. From the trailer, we all knew that this is going to be a survival thriller so we all wait for that point in the movie where they ends up in a situation like that and there should be a proper logic for circumstances that happens afterwards and that's where the creators should put more emphasis. Emotional connection is important and the movie should have a proper storyline to take the audience with the story. This movie lacked everything and way too much time was taken for character development in the first half which was unnecessary.
The producion design was okay though.

Absolute waste of money. Don't waste your money. Credits of the movie was literally the best part. The director has also threatened one of the honest movie reviewers with death threats and worse which is available to see on YouTube now. Aneesh Anwar should spare public of such a waste of time and money. He has done absolutely zero research and has just shot the movie using a camera and crew without any thought involved. Lot of scenes where even common sense was lacking. Guess common sense is not so common after all especially when it comes to this director. In short, spend your money somewhere else.
If you're looking for a hidden gem, give Rasta a chance. It's a gripping and well-crafted film that deserves more attention. Don't let its box office performance deter you - this movie is worth watching! The cinematography was stunning, the movie was filmed in the beautiful landscapes of Oman .The director's vision and skill in bringing the story to life is worth mentioning. The cast and crew which were mainly comprised of newcomers also did a good job .This movie is worth watching. This movie keeps the viewers engaged from start to finish. The movie's narrative is also complex and engaging from start to finish.
Incredible. The pre-movie credits are a classy touch, just a few minutes of silence and acknowledgments. Perfect time to get comfy because what follows is brilliant. The plot is captivating, and the acting is superb. After 20 minutes, I was on the edge of my seat. It only gets better. It's not just entertaining; it's an experience. Even Sharknado fans will appreciate the quality here. Words fail me to describe this "film." It's pure gold. If you're looking to enjoy a couple of hours, this is your movie. If Netflix keeps this up, I'm never canceling. If you're looking to enjoy a couple of hours, this is your movie. Utterly a m a z i n g.
Raastha follows a simplistic narrative with a generic first half devoted to establishing the characters and their efforts to find the whereabouts of Shahana's mother, Fathima. It is exactly at the halfway stage that we arrive at the area of conflict-the desert. Faizal, Shahana, Mujeeb and Khalid, an Omani national, get trapped in Rub' al Khali deserts, while on their way to meet a woman suspected to be Shahana's mother.
At the interval point, it is written on screen that Rub' al Khali is one of the world's most dangerous deserts. But the real challenge lies in visually conveying why it is a deadly desert. To be fair, Aneesh Anwar and his team effectively portray the horrors of getting caught in such a situation. The tension building is done gradually by employing wide frames that capture nothing but endless stretches of sand dunes and ominous music.
