Mechanic Rocky

I watched Mechanic Rocky on Amazon Prime, and I really liked it. Honestly, I was surprised by how good it was. When Vishwak Sen was so confident about this movie during the pre-launch event, I felt skeptical. It seemed like it was going to be a routine movie.

The title, Mechanic Rocky, feels like a big misdirection-maybe on purpose. With a name like that, I thought it was going to be like Mechanic Alludu or some 90s-style movie. But it turned out to be completely different. The concept is fresh, and it's definitely worth a watch.

I actually started watching it only because someone told me, "Go watch it, you'll like it." At first, it felt like a regular story-up until the interval. But in the second half, the movie completely changes direction. It becomes something totally unexpected and focuses on a very relevant topic, which I won't reveal here.

One thing I kept thinking about is why the director chose this mechanic backdrop. The main story could have worked with any setting. Maybe it was Vishwak Sen's idea to make it appealing to the masses. Whatever the reason, it works well. Vishwak Sen once again shows he has a great sense for picking the right stories. The last movie of his I liked was Ashoka Vanamlo Arjuna Kalyanam.

I won't spoil anything about the story because the thrill is in not knowing what to expect. Just trust Vishwak Sen and watch the movie till the end-you won't regret it. Towards the climax, I felt this is the kind of story we usually see in Malayalam cinema. But here, they've mixed that Malayalam-style script with a Telugu backdrop and comedy, and it works beautifully.

As for director Ravi Teja Mullapudi, I think this is his first movie, and he's done a great job. The story is fresh and deals with a very current issue faced by Indian youth. I'm not sure if he's related to the famous Mullapudi family, but his work here stands out. One suggestion I'd have is that he could have added a few suspenseful scenes here and there to keep the audience engaged. Other than that, he's done really well, and I'm looking forward to more from him.

Vishwak Sen is fabulous in this role, and he gets to show different shades of his character. Meenakshi, the heroine, also has an important role, and Shraddha Srinath's character is excellent. At first, you might wonder why her character is even there, but later, it all makes sense, and you'll be amazed.

The music is good. I especially liked the song Oo Pillo-it's my favorite from the album. The rest of the songs are decent. The cast and crew have done a solid job overall.

In conclusion, I'd give this movie 7.5/10. It's a thrilling watch, and don't let the title mislead you. Give it a try-you'll be pleasantly surprised.
