Kill (AmazonPrimeVideo) Review :-
Kill (AmazonPrimeVideo) Can the love-struck fauji save the day all on his own, without any help?
In terms of intense graphic violence, Kill feels like a nod to John Wick and a spiritual successor to Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Animal—but thankfully without the overt misogyny. One thing it could have borrowed from Animal is its exceptional background score by Harshavardhan Rameshwar. While both films share a theme of vengeance, Kill also maintains a sense of moral compass throughout the story.
After witnessing Amrit’s intense rage, the psychotic Fani tells him, “Tum rakshak nahi raakshas ho.” Unfortunately, this line highlights a lack of depth in the writing and characterization, leaving you wanting more exploration of morality, principles, or humanity. The film focuses heavily on brutal combat scenes for nearly two hours—while intense and engaging, it can become a bit exhausting.
Kill (AmazonPrimeVideo) Trailor :-
Kill breaks new ground in its treatment. Although the theme of a train journey turning into a nightmare has been explored in films like Train to Busan and Bullet Train, it’s refreshing to see Hindi cinema tackling this genre with genuine effort. Set entirely within the confined space of a moving train, the narrative heightens the intensity of the gruesome fights. There’s little room to breathe, which adds to the tension. However, the relentless pace can feel monotonous over time, as the story and characters lack emotional depth. Unlike hardcore action films like Ghajini, which effectively convey trauma, Kill leaves you shocked by the extreme gore and violence without truly moving you. The action is well choreographed and definitely not for the faint-hearted.
From a mild-mannered soldier to a relentless killer, Lakshya transforms from an NSG commando to an unhinged assassin, balancing ruthlessness with humanity, and he pulls it off impressively. This marks a strong screen debut for the actor in a full-on action thriller. However, it’s Raghav Juyal who truly stands out in his quirky role, showcasing his toughest performance yet.
Director Nikhil Nagesh Bhat fully embraces the genre, ensuring there’s never a dull moment, even when the action becomes repetitive. He employs violence as a narrative tool, and while the glorification of brutality is clear, that’s part of what makes action thrillers engaging. It’s a gore fest for action enthusiasts, where you might even find a certain beauty in the chaos. Amidst the bloodshed and graphic scenes, the most shocking moment comes when Amrit proposes to Tulika in a train toilet!
Kill had the ideal setting to create a sense of claustrophobic horror. It definitely makes you squirm with its intense violence, but it never quite reaches a point where genuine fear takes hold. That would have been its true triumph.
