Rocky is a revenge action drama movie produced by C.R. Manoj Kumar under RA STUDIOUS and presented by Nayanthara and Vignesh Shivan. The film is written and directed by Arun Matheswaran.

A very routine revenge drama that is hoisted on John Wick template and an interspersed screenplay ROCKY is blood and gore. A contrived environment and concocted Korean settings make this self indulgent film that banks more on it’s technical prowess to camouflage the reasoning. Limited characters with limited details drag this predictable fare that tries to amuse the viewer with its audacious violence that is raw in execution but faulty in logic. The long drawn out scenes and permissive execution can be a deal breaker.

Vasanth Ravi is impactful while Bharathiraja overacts. Rohini is normal and the child actress Anisha is impressive. The supporting cast is good.

Cinematography by Shreeyas Krishna is brilliant. Music by Darbuka Siva is amazing. The background score is terrific. Editing by Nagooran is neat Dialogues are good, while the debutant director is a talent to watch for

ROCKY is a blood feast dressed up in technical finesse.

ROCKY – RAW !!

2.5/5
