Vishwak Sen has experienced a setback with his latest release, 'Mechanic Rocky'. The film, which hit theaters on Friday, has failed to replicate the more-than-decent openings of his previous ventures.
It grossed Rs 2.20 Cr on Day 1. 'Gangs Of Godavari', 'Gaami' and 'Das Ka Dhamki' had taken much higher openings. Had 'Mechanic Rocky' done as well as them, Vishwak's stamina would have been proven beyond doubt.
"The film would have packed a punch had the brand of comedy been intelligent and thoughtful rather than silly and spoofy. There is a spoofy flashback, which gets linked to a key character later on in the story. While this linking is fun to watch, in the hands of a classy filmmaker like a Karthik Subbaraj or a Nelson Dhilipkumar, this story would have acquired remarkable finesse," we opined in our review.
