A rocky start with a thrilling finish

Mechanic Rocky strikes a fine balance between mass entertainment and meaningful storytelling. The inclusion of cybercrime as a subplot adds contemporary relevance, elevating the film beyond a standard action-drama. With strong performances, Ravi Teja Mullapudi crafts a film that, despite its flaws, resonates emotionally and delivers action-packed entertainment.(more)

A decent thriller

Mechanic Rocky is a decent thriller that has a gripping second half. The twists and turns keep you engaged till the end. But to enjoy this part, you need to ignore the dull first half. If you manage to do this, the Vishwak Sen film ends up being a decent watch this weekend.(more)

Ravi Teja Mullapudi and Vishwak Sen save the best for the last

Mechanic Rocky had done away with some of the stereotypical humour and song and dances and leveraged on its thriller portions, it could have been far more engrossing.(more)

Viswak Sen's thriller buried under forced action, comedy

Mechanic Rocky feels overly long, with the first half in particular dragging on due to unnecessary fillers. Ultimately, the film feels like a missed opportunity. The central plot has promise, but it gets lost in trying to cram too many elements into one narrative, diluting the impact. With a tighter screenplay and more focused direction, this could have been a compelling thriller rather than a muddled mix of genres.(more)
