Mark, a mechanic, uses a time machine to travel back in time to learn about his vicious gangster late father Antony. What follows is what?
Mark Antony movie review: It's encouraging to see that local filmmakers continue to push the boundaries of the time-travel subgenre. This is something that has been happening for a while. The main protagonists in the majority of these stories try to use the time machine to alter the past, which causes conflict between them. The main characters in Mark Antony by Aadhik Ravichandran perform the same actions, but what makes this particular version unique are the story, treatment, staging, performances, and disorganized retro graphics.
Chiranjeevi (Selvaraghavan), a scientist who creates a phone that enables time travel, is introduced to us in the very first scene. Anyone with access to it is able to phone and speak with people from the past. Twenty years later, in 1995, we meet Jackie (SJ Suryah), a merciless gangster who is planning to exact revenge for the murder of his close buddy Antony, and Mark (Vishal), the late gangster's son. While Jackie's son Madhan Pandy (SJ Suryah) develops into a mechanic by trade, Mark grows up to be a mechanic.
Mark thinks that his mother's passing was caused by his father Antony. His life, however, changes when he finds a time machine in his garage. Mark learns that Antony is not who he thinks he is as he has the chance to speak with individuals connected to his father in the past. He discovers information about his father and a number of other long-buried incidents.
Will Mark be able to alter specific events from the past and, despite all the odds, bring his father back to life?
Without reasoning, Mark Antony may most certainly be effective for someone searching for two and a half hours of nonstop enjoyment. Although Adhik's narrative style somewhat aids, SJ Suryah's unique acting keeps us interested the entire time. For instance, the audience will enjoy the hilarious scenario in which SJ Suryah's kid tries to contact him in the future. Adhik devotes all of his talents to the visual presentation and the efficient staging of pivotal action sequences, despite the fact that the plot is unoriginal and follows the typical blueprint of a gangster drama.
The characters and the over-the-top background score help the director create the ideal atmosphere for this wacky sci-fi drama from the very beginning. Even if there are instances when we want to grab the remote and turn down the volume, there are some scenes that without GV Prakash's touch would not have worked. It is pretty admirable that the late actress Silk Smita was brought back in a sequence that was so important.
Although the climax is tumultuous, Antony's return toward the conclusion is something to be on the lookout for.
When it comes to acting, Vishal is just as talented as SJ Suryah, and their joint performances are delightful to witness. Despite having less screen time, Ritu Varma, who plays Mark's girlfriend, has lived up to expectations.
Although Mark Antony is not a particularly good movie, it is a fun and invigorating entertainment that fulfills its promises.
