I caught RDX in a rickety theatre in Muvattupuzha at about 10 in the evening because tickets were not available for better theatres during the Onam week. This was my first time at a single-screen theatre in Kerala after Oru Yamandan Premakatha in 2019. And boy was it an experience of a lifetime. It's clear from the film's opening sequence that the makers know how to concoct a true heart-thumping action film, regardless of how many ropes or how much editing went into the stylization of the action sequences. I was bowled over with the pacing, the characters, and the whole mess they get into. The visual weightage of the sets is something that I dug more. Not least because of the chaotic whistling and shouting of my fellow audience during the show where each entry and re-entry of the primary characters elicited a rousing response. Though I don't remember hearing anyone clapping.
RDX is a true big screen film and must be watched with friends who love action and a story with artificial hype. I paid about 150 rupees ($2) for the show and I think it was totally worth it. One of the best I've seen in 2023. 8 stars.
