RDX: Robert Dony Xavier

Action choreography, direction and background music made the movie.

If you insist on a story, you might want to carry a balarama with you.

Nothing Nolan about this movie - simple stuff, stylish action weaved into emotions. With a no-star cast, the director has been able to pull off a pretty good movie.

Background music had a freshness to it and complimented the action very well. Facial expression closeups backed by Sam CS' BGM.

Action choreography is very well done, lot of meticulous work has gone into stylizing each and every shot. Acting performances have been great - good screen presence from Pepe, Shane and Neeraj. Pepe stood out a little more.

It is a light stylized action movie.

RDX is a well established Action packed movie following the footsteps of Ajagajanthiram & Thallumala. Anbraivu's action is the major highlight of the movie with impeccable action scenes. Anthony Varghese, Neeraj Madhav & Shane Nigam, the male protagonists performed whole throughout the movie with slight upper hand by Neeraj & Shane. Background score & songs by Sam CS also helped the movie to be more interesting. The antagonists played by Vishnu Agasthya, Sandeep, etc delivered their finest performance and I will consider that as the backbone of the movie. Family sentiments and romance was perfectly fused with the high octane action. Cinematography by Alex. J. Pulickal was top notch. Editing by Chaman Chacko deserves a loud round of applause for making RDX a crispy explosive one.

The lady characters played by Mahima, Aimie, Mala Parvathi deserves special mention.

All in Whole, as the name denotes.. RDX is mass destruction Explosive.

Watch it in theaters for the amazing experience.

8.7 on 10 is my score.

Robert, Dony and Xavier are basically bros who seek an opportunity to create mayhem. They are martial artists too, trained by Xavier's father while Robert and Dony's father Philip doesn't approve their shenanigans. After an hiatus involving non-violence, their casual brawl from the past puts the family at risk and RDX have to take matters into their hands to safeguard the family. But it's not an ordinary brawl anymore and RDX have to realize, it will take a lot of nunchucks, punches and kicks to take down this opponent.

It's a threadbare storyline and there isn't much innovative story wise. It's a revenge story and all that matters are the six action set pieces choreographed by Anbariv and good background score to elevate them. The first half was pretty mediocre with the three action scenes not really leaving any impact and the actors too try to make merry from what's offered to them. The story moves in a decent pace and the sole advantage is that the first half doesn't drag.

The second half is where the film shines with three terrific action scenes which raises the bar as well as tension. It's all non-stop action here and it stays entertaining till the end. The trio gets a lot of slow motion shots to show their heroic side, with Neeraj Madhav using the nunchucks in the best way possible while Antony Varghese packing solid punches. It is Shane Nigam who is given ample scope to spread his charms while showcasing his action skills. The problem is they aren't the typical martial artists and thankfully the well conceived action scenes, elevate them too.

I watched RDX just today. It is one of the best Action film I have seen in recent years. The film's action is made well with great camera work and also a great choreography. The slow motion in those action scenes were wonderful and apt to make me feel the impact of the scene. The editing and direction deserves another kudos as the scenes were arranged in a flow with impactful scenes were added beautifully added before the action sequences.

Only downside I felt about the film was that the story could have been made better especially the emotional scenes could have been made more meatier.

Overall the best Action film I have seen this year.

This film has received all sorts of acclaim since Onam and has almost been this sleeper hit. Now it's out on Netflix, had to watch it and I'm probably late so I'll skip the plot.

The plot is almost generic, something you might watched over the years in B/T/Kollywood. Not sure if Mollywood has made this before. The parts that were good about the generic plot - relatable friendship, you care for the 3 characters. The action - decent enough to not be over-the-top; some sequences were well done. Other than that, I.....don't know if I enjoyed anything else....so it's safe to say that I didn't enjoy the film as much as everybody else seems to have.

I don't know if the hype and the praise for this film have been so high because this was a 'breath of fresh air' in Mollywood or if King of Kotha high such high expectations and bombed, so everybody went to watch RDX and had a good time...? Not sure but there's only one way to find out - I gotta watch KOK.
