SAGAR ALIAS JACKY-RELOADED

Director: Amal Neerad

Cast: Mohanlal, Bhavana, Sobhana

DID YOU KNOW? S N Swami – K Madhu team’s Irupatham Noottandu got released in 1987. The hero of the film was Sagar Alias Jacky, a dignified underworld don, played by Mohanlal. Now Sagar or Mohanlal is back in Sagar Alias Jacky reloaded, directed by Amal Neerad. It is not a sequel, but only the character reappears in style.

RAPID REVIEW: Sagar Alias Jacky reloaded had to live up to huge expectations, as the old saga is still lingering in the minds of all. But the new version is perhaps more about leather jackets, slow motion sequences, sepia colored frames and opulence. If you’re looking for a film based on a gripping script, Sagar Alias Jacky reloaded is not in your menu. It’s a hardcore entertainer with mindless action and style, but could have been more entertaining if it had a more imaginative script.

HIGHS: The visuals and style.

LOWS: The script. Or the absence of it.

Verdict: 2 out of 5
