**Kochi, [Date]:** Unni Mukundan’s latest action-thriller, ‘Marco,’ is creating a storm at the box office, receiving overwhelmingly positive feedback, especially from Tamil audiences. Many Tamil viewers are calling it the best action film they’ve seen in 30 years, praising Mukundan’s “shocking and outstanding” performance.
While the initial response from Kerala audiences is more mixed, with some praising the film’s action sequences and Mukundan’s performance, others have noted a slightly slow first half and expressed uncertainty about its broader appeal. Some Tamil viewers also cautioned that the film may not resonate with family audiences and that the violent content may not be for everyone. They also warned that the film has a slightly lagging first half.
‘Marco,’ described as a massive action film with unprecedented levels of violence for Indian cinema, features intense action sequences from start to finish. The film’s stylish visuals and thrilling background score are also major highlights, according to early reviews. Jagadeesh delivers a standout performance as the ruthless antagonist, Tony Isaac. The film, which clocks in at 2 hours and 25 minutes, also stars Siddique and Anson Paul.
Produced by Cubes Entertainment, ‘Marco’ marks the debut production of Sherif Muhammed, making him the youngest producer in Malayalam cinema. The film is a spin-off of the movie ‘Mikhael’. The massive success has prompted fan clubs to already start forming around the movie, with some predicting it will surpass even the popular KGF franchise. Unni Mukundan himself has stated that this is a step from star to super star, after many years of hardwork.
