Marco Movie Review

Director Haneef Adeni has always made movies that has visual significance, in other words, visual dominance, more than a substantial storytelling. Well, this time with Marco, it looks like, the respective premise has worked in favour of his ideas. To start off with, Marco is a mindless action entertainer, exclusively tailored for the ones, who have thoroughly enjoyed the gory blood splashing all over the screens with bruises, chop-offs of fleshes and broken bones.

Marco is a 100% blood-curdling action thriller, which will definitely throw away the faint hearts out of the theaters in a fraction of minutes. It looks like the film is a stubborn competitor to what Bollywood delivered through ‘Kill’. Well, comparing both the film aren’t meant to be the right thing, but if you’re still looking up for the comparisons, we would suggest that Marco is far better than Kill, as the emotional quotients have been very well balanced unlike the Hindi film.

Yes, on the flip side, there’s nothing perfect when it comes to developing and establishing the characters, and adding emotional essence to them. But the same factor becomes a positive for Marco, as it caters perfectly to the tastes of action lovers. Only a couple of characters – lead character Marco and his blind brother Victor add the best spell out there. Unni Mukundan steals the show with his masculine and hefty looks. The actor essaying the role of Victor is more promising. Rest of the actors are laudable, especially the gigantic villains.

The appreciable thing about Marco is that the characterisation of protagonist, where he doesn’t give a superhero prospect, and is someone that every audience can relate with. Technically, action choreographers might bag some awards. Of course, when a film like Pushpa is able to fetch National awards, this one is worth of getting awarded for the action choreography.
