The Indian adaptation of a Korean film 'The Man From Nowhere' made back in 2010, Rocky Handsome was a total disappointment!
The first half hour the director tried to establish a story!

Story: The film story revolves around a man, Kabir Ahlawat (John Abraham) who goes on a rampage when a drug mafia kidnaps his only hope to live, a sever year old girl played by 'Diya Chalwad.'
The whole movie is shot in Goa.

About the actors:

All the action sequences by John Abraham was fantastic! Especially hand to hand combat.
You'll definitely love watching him beating all the villain guys but...but you can see maximum 10 expressions by John!
If you are John fan then this is the movie to test how much big fan you are!

'Diya Chalwad' did great at such young age! Appreciable but somewhere I felt 'its overacting!'

Nishikant Kamat, what to say!
He plays a character named Kevin in the movie. He kills people and removes every organ which can be sold in the market. Typical Bollywood villain, 90s background music and for the first time 'Konkani Villain.'
Kamat tried his best to get into the skin of the character and in this attempt he overdid it!


Teddy Maurya who plays Nishikant Kamat's brother is a maniac! Nothing more to say.

Sharad Kelkar who is playing a cop was a good addition to the movie and worth mentioning!

All the supporting characters were from Marathi film industry made the movie watchable.

Well every man has a past and here John's past was Rukshida (Shruti Haasan) from that moment he isolates himself from everything.

Overall:
Nishikant tried to take us in a dark world where human bodies, organs and life are treated just as a product. But it didn't conveyed things the way it should.

A sad moment and it starts raining! Seriously? Well, that's there in the movie!

The songs were good but unnecessary and it looked like they were used as a fillers! Except the last one.

The biggest blunder of Rocky Handsome that it tried to give it's lead character an emotional and patriotic back story. Everyone laughed for a moment when police finds John's history and police who decoded his online files read things which are filled with adjectives praising John! In the last he says 'a true Indian Patriot.' It's good but didn't suit well in that moment!
