Marco

After the success of films like KGF and Animal, it seems filmmakers are trying to capitalize on the hype, often to the detriment of quality. This trend is evident in Marco, a movie with a weak storyline and glaring lapses in logic. In one scene, the protagonist watches helplessly as a minor villain slaughters an entire group in front of him. Yet moments later, he is miraculously healed and manages to wipe out the antagonist's entire gang. Scenes like this are sprinkled throughout the movie, making it feel more comical than compelling. The excessive violence is portrayed so casually that it feels more like watching the butchering of livestock than a cinematic experience. Overall, Marco fails to deliver anything meaningful, relying solely on gratuitous violence and nonsensical plot points. I found myself laughing at the absurdity more than being engaged in the story.

Worst move. Violent & gory just for the sake of it. Don't be mistaken I have watched "I Saw The Devil" & "Old Boy" they are violent cuz the story demands it.

In this case is dumb, stupid and plain nonsensical.

Absolute garbage of a movie. Very disappointed to see such a movie from Malayalam industry where generally most of the movies are amazing in story and acting.

No story at all. Unnecessary bg and slomo, over hyped.

Pointless killings gore. Absolute torture of 2 hours and 24 mins.

1st half you still feel okay it's leading some where. But the 2nd half wow During the entire time I was scratching my head thinking just when will this end.

Marco is one of such movies that I went just because of its recent hype on social media mentioning it the most violent movie of the year. They were wrong. It's not only the most violent movie of the year but it must be one of the most violent movies in the history of Indian Cinema.

This Unni Mukundan starrer is nothing but a killing crusade in which it is impossible for anyone to keep the count of the number of people getting killed. Last such movie that I watched was Kill released earlier this year, but there is a huge difference between both. While Kill has proper plot and emotional connect this one is just bloody, violent, and brutal. But that's what the makers promised, so no complain.

Technically it's a masterpiece. Killing scenes will seem crazy real and will give you chills while the background score takes the thrill to next level. It's a fast moving chaotic kill fest that is not recommended for light hearted audience, especially Kids.

The makers delivered exactly what they said they would and made the movie as violent as possible. Typical revenge driven storyline centered around a family, nothing out of the ordinary. Pretty weak script when it comes to majority of dialogues, but can be compensated with the performances and overall vibe that the film gives throughout the movie. Background score was phenomenal the whole way through. Coming to the performances, Unnimukundan was incredible and is perfectly fit for the role and he convincingly pulls of all the action scenes, Jagdish and Siddique delivered incredibly with some drawbacks that could have been solved with proper dialogues. Action scenes were mind blowing, and looked to be on par with some of the greatest action hollywood films (not kidding) with incredible cinematography and shots.

Now the main part, the film is a gorefest especially in the 2nd half. No other Indian film comes anywhere near when it comes to the violence that this movie contains and is STRICTLY NOT FOR KIDS, PREGNANT WOMEN OR FAINT HEARTED PEOPLE. Extremely brutal torture scenes, murders, slashings and brutal injuries the whole way through. Overall an incredible action packed movie that could be the new benchmark for not even Malayalam but Indian action movies.

The movie's action sequences were truly exceptional, standing out as the film's strongest aspect. Each scene was crafted with precision and delivered high-intensity moments that kept me on the edge of my seat. The climax was another highlight, uniquely designed and breaking away from conventional Bollywood tropes, which added a refreshing twist to the narrative.

However, the movie fell short when it came to the emotional depth of the story. There was a noticeable lack of connection with the characters, and the storyline felt underdeveloped, making it hard to fully invest in the plot. While the action and climax were impressive, the weak storytelling left the overall experience feeling incomplete.

Despite its flaws, the movie is worth watching for its action and unique climax. I'd rate it a 7/10 for its efforts in pushing boundaries, even if the story didn't fully deliver.
