Directed by Nishikant Kamat, 'Rocky Handsome' features John Abraham, Shruti Hassan and Sharad Kelkar in pivotal roles.
As much as the trailer has revealed, the film revolves around a man who sets out to take vengeance against a drug mafia after they forcibly take away an eight-year old girl, with whom the lead shares a special unexplainable bond.
It'll be interesting to see how director Nishikant Kamat, who have given us directorial hits like 'Drishyam', fares in this film as an actor-cum-director.
While the film is an adaptation of the Korean film 'The Man from Nowhere', it marks an important milestone in John Abraham's career considering it's a sort of solo come-back for the actor. Last seen in 'Wazir', will John Abraham able to carry the film on his shoulders? Will the much anticipated action sequences set a new benchmark in Bollywood? Kriti Tulsiani from IBNLive is inside the theater to find out.

10:26 AM: Set in Goa, issues like child trafficking, prostitution, drugs, organ trade and brutal killings have been highlighted. #RockyHandsome
10:41 AM: It's pretty much amusing to see that all the baddies of #RockyHandsome are evoking chuckles, not threats. None at all.
10:49 AM: There's only so much of #JohnAbraham sporting a black dapper suit, walking in slow-motion that you can take. #RockyHandsome
10:51 AM: Finally! Some power packed action sequences on-screen now. #RockyHandsome
10:57 AM: Slow build-up of @TheJohnAbraham's mysterious past keeps you invested (to an extent). #RockyHandsome
11:08 AM: It's half time. So far, #RockyHandsome is about clichéd-driven story line and frequent display of a straight-face-six-pack-abs for nothing.
11:13 AM: #NishikantKamat as an actor is neither bad nor good. Or maybe, we just had high our hopes too high. #RockyHandsome
11:18 AM: #NishikantKamat is impressive in beginning of the second half. (Yes, finally) #RockyHandsome
11:22 AM: .@SharadK7 is definitely one of the finest actors in #RockyHandsome

11:29 AM: #RockyHandsome is picking up momentum in the second half. Some pace, at least.
11:40 AM: As long as there are action-packed punches, #JohnAbraham is good; but his dialogue delivery isn't as impressive. #RockyHandsome
11:48 AM: Special word for cinematography. #RockyHandsome has been shot amazingly well. Just the right combination of long and mid shots.
11:57 AM: One-man-army concept doesn't seem to be leaving Bollywood anytime soon. Too unrealistic, but okay. #RockyHandsome
12:05 PM: Even as the film is about to end, there's no strong emotional connect. #RockyHandsome
12:11 PM: While some of the supporting actors are over-the-top, they still add buoyancy to the narration. #RockyHandsome
12:13 PM: From dragged narration to poor execution; #RockyHandsome fails on so many levels.
12:16 PM: Yes, there were some action sequences commendable enough but overall #RockyHandsome fails to create an impact.
12:23 PM: While the songs fit into the storyline well but didn't really add anything much to the film. #RockyHandsome
12:27 PM: It's all about some 'masala' action scenes, a clichéd-driven climax and a slow storyline. #RockyHandsome
12:28 PM: Thank you for staying with us throughout the tweet review of #RockyHandsome. Stay tuned for more updates.
