Durgesh Tiwary’s View: When I watched the trailer of this film planned to watch this movie in cinemas in Hindi as loved the action sequences. Adattu is one of the most renowned gold-trading families in Kerala. Unexpectedly, a mysterious incident shakes the Adattu family. George, the head of the family, sets out to uncover the truth and find those responsible. At the same time, his younger brother, Marco, embarks on the same quest but through a different Path.
Marco is a classic revenge drama at its core, but what makes it stand out is its attempt to push the boundaries of on-screen violence. The first half is a thrilling rush filled with top-notch action sequences and moments of emotional depth. The characters are well-developed, keeping the audience engaged until the explosive interval fight scene, which is a visual treat. The second half amplifies further. It is less of an action entertainer and more an aesthetically deprived blood fest that aims for the tightly contested spot of maximum body counts. It is Malayalam film industry’s answer to Bollywood’s Kill and Hollywood action movies. It is better in many aspects, especially the emotional angle, which offers justification for the onscreen violence. Else, it just looks like gore fantasy. It is rated A and it’s because of how the violence is depicted and this not only involves dismemberment of humans and animals, but also children being murdered. The film is not for the faint-hearted. These sequences can be stomach-churning, and you might also feel that these might have been totally unnecessary. But that’s the route the makers take; it’s a no-holds-barred show, meaning that violence and style takes precedence over logic. Ravi Basrur’s loud and adrenaline-pumping score gets the credit for that. Unni’s swagger adds a lot to the film, especially its stylish action pieces which include a Raid-style staircase sequence set in a house in Mattan Chery and a first-person shooter-style scene in a corridor.
Chandru Selvaraj’s cinematography is brilliant for an all-out action movie, and the production design team also deserves ample credit for making the film bigger than it has any right to be. The action scenes are among the most hard-hitting in a Malayalam movie, and credit to Haneef Adeni for truly pushing the barrier here. Unni Mukundan gives it his all, delivering a performance with swag that shows his range and potential as an actor. Despite shortcomings, the movie’s production quality is top-notch, a testament to the growing capability of Malayalam cinema to produce high-quality action films. Overall, Marco is probably the most violent and bl0ody film in the history of the Indian Cinema that makes for a brilliantly gory watch. If you are a fan of this genre, which has seen movies like Kill recently, then this one does make for a very good time in theatres thanks to its stylish action sequences and thumping background score. But be warned, it has some stomach-churning sequences that aren’t for the fainthearted and families. My view on this movie Highly Recommended.
