Synopsis

Kid is an anonymous young man who ekes out a meager living in an underground fight club where, night after night, wearing a gorilla mask, he is beaten bloody by more popular fighters for cash. After years of suppressed rage, Kid discovers a way to infiltrate the enclave of the city’s sinister elite. As his childhood trauma boils over, his mysteriously scarred hands unleash an explosive campaign of retribution to settle the score with the men who took everything from him.

Community Reviews

Viewers are captivated by Dev Patel's dual role as director and lead in this action-packed, culturally rich revenge thriller. The film's stunning action sequences and beautiful cinematography are frequently praised, though some find the pacing uneven and the plot somewhat predictable. The integration of Indian cultural elements and mythological references adds depth, making it a visually and emotionally engaging experience despite some narrative shortcomings.

Surprisingly gorey/drawn out fighting scenes. Felt a little cheesy but still enjoyable to watch

Watched it with friends in theaters when it came out, then again tonight with family. More drugs and sex than I remember the first time…

Acteur trop sexy comme d’hab. ambience sombre. Intégration d’une communauté bâclé en Indes. Fin merdique mais réaliste.
