Martin

Martin is a self centered movie on dhruva surja, I don't know why he does acting, he should better go to acting classes . Worst vfx ever, heroine acting was good, decent story but worst dialogue deliveries,The special effects, which I assume took up the bulk of the budget, looked like they were created on a 2002 home computer. CGI explosions fill the screen with blinding colors but no sense of scale, purpose, or urgency. At times, it felt like the filmmakers simply gave up and decided to drown the audience in noise and poorly rendered space debris.

In conclusion, "Martin" is a cinematic black hole.

There not proper story line Story not explained properly. There is no point in story. The dialogue is also very poor. Actors try to give their best but dialogue don't feel like powerful impact. As dialogue not matching with background music.

The visual in this movie is quite good but still it feels there is no point to show them. I personally don't like the movie. It becomes more better if it properly present. If in this movie there is little comedy and unnecessary part is deleted and main character and villan character background show properly then it could be more better movie. If anyone likes action movie, they don't like it. Because the action sequences don't complete properly.

LOL dont bother watching this movie in the name of d-riding on Salaar and KGF another masterpiece has come called Latrin, who will copyright strike the whole youtube community.

Go watch some anime or something better or go learn something new.

Bad graphics Bad body CGI

did they promise to just top up the metrocard for the VFX people working in the movie. The ego on this movie makers cannot even take criticism.

Already the story in the movies from india (90% of them) i can say they are so bad, look at the bollywood and the south movies are even worst i can say that RRR and Kalki is the only movie which I think has THE story and they are very great movies

I can understand there could have been quite some difficulty making of this movie, but this movie is bad

do not bother going to watch the movie i just saw the reviews and dodged a bullet.

The *2024* release of *Martin* is not a direct remake of George A. Romero's 1977 psychological horror but rather a restoration and re-release that has drawn attention in recent years. Over the decades, Romero's *Martin* has gained considerable recognition, with some critics and fans considering it a cult classic for its unconventional take on vampirism. Due to this, a 4K restoration of the original was announced to bring the film back to audiences, preserving its place in horror history.

As the 2024 version aims to preserve the essence of the original, it focuses on enhancing the quality of Romero's work, offering modern audiences a clearer and more vivid presentation of the gritty, disturbing world Martin inhabits. The restoration uses the original 16mm camera negative to bring the colors, cinematography, and atmosphere back to life while maintaining the film's raw, low-budget aesthetic, which is part of its appeal.

Romero's *Martin* stands out for its realistic and grounded approach to horror, diverging from more popular and romanticized interpretations of vampires. In a horror landscape that often relies on supernatural elements, Martin's story offers a psychological angle, leaving audiences to question whether he is a vampire at all or simply mentally ill. By 2024, this concept resonates even more with contemporary viewers, given the increased focus on mental health and its intersection with horror.

The story remains the same: Martin, a young man who believes he is an 84-year-old vampire, moves to Pittsburgh to live with his superstitious cousin Cuda, who sees him as a Nosferatu-like monster. The tension between Martin's modern skepticism and Cuda's old-world belief system is central to the film's drama. The visual restoration enhances this dynamic, sharpening the contrasts between Martin's bleak urban surroundings and the dreamlike black-and-white flashbacks that allude to his delusions of vampirism.

In the 2024 version, this restoration effort is paired with bonus content that delves deeper into Romero's creative process and the film's enduring legacy. Many fans of Romero's work will appreciate the effort to bring back one of his lesser-known films, offering a new generation the chance to experience *Martin* as close to the director's original vision as possible. This re-release also serves as an exploration of how the film's themes of alienation, violence, and identity remain relevant in today's society.

The restored *Martin* brings a unique experience for viewers seeking a blend of psychological tension and horror without the typical tropes.

Unnecessary intense scenes. Heavy background music now and then will make us get headache.

Direction is focused too much on boasting lead actor than focusing on story and message it was to deliver.

Not to blame the lead male and female characters for their over acting but the director himself for it.

He executes many scenes influenced by KGF/Kabja.

Very small story which could be delivered in good way is stretched with illogical scenes and unwanted scenes and finally everyone is lost. Director tried to make it look like Hollywood movie but completely end up delivering movie that look unoriginal and it's neither Indian nor western.
