Remember
the
boxer
Rocky
and
how
his
junoon
in
the
boxing
ring
was
restrained
after
a
traumatic
incident?
Cleverly
(?)
the
writers
of
this
routine
actioner
wrench
our
new-age
Cocky
Rocky
out
of
the
boxing
ring.
And
put
him
in
the
far
more
sinister
ring-with-a-sting
known
as
the
concrete
jungle.
Story??
Cocky
Rocky
-
God
bless
his
bleeding
heart-can't
bear
to
see
goons
pulling
at
ladies'
unmentionables
or
invading
a
suspiciously
studio-staged
cyber
cafe
to
disrupt
what
looks
like
a
bunch
of
guys
peering
at
porn
sites
(we
can't
be
sure
because
they
all
sport
stock-expressions
of
forced
concentration).
Cyber
Cafe's
villainous
visitors
are
goons
sent
by
a
super-goon
named
Anthony
(Rajit
Bedi,
trying
hard
to
look
like
a
mean
cocaine
sniffer).
Recently
I've
noticed
filmy
villains
have
Christian
names.
Maybe
filmmakers
are
scared
of
going
into
the
other
minority
community
for
goon-
sukoon.
Call
them
by
any
name,
these
graduates
from
goon
school
look
like
left-overs
from
Ram
Gopal
Varma's
Shiva.
They
run
helter-skelter
on
the
roads
and
recreational
spots
of
the
metro,
trying
to
scare
the
daylights
out
of
law-abiding
citizens.
The
god-fearing
types
include
Cocky
Rocky's
scared
father
(Sarath
Babu
from
the
South
sporting
an
accent
so
thick
,
you
could
mistake
him
for
an
owner
of
an
Udipi
restaurant
instead
of
the
banker
that
he
plays)
and
a
surprisingly
happy
and
over-the-top
Mom
played
by
Smita
Jaykar.
Papa
tells
sonny-boy
(a.k.a
Cocky
Rocky)
"No
fighting!"
after
the
boy's
girlfriend
no.1
(Isha
Shravani)
is
done
to
death
by
Anthony.
But
have
no
fear,
there's
girlfriend
no.
2
Minissha
Lamba
in
London
who
chases
Cocky
Rocky
and
chases
down
Black
petty
criminals
with
equal
out-of-breath
sincerity.
Cocky
Rocky's
stocky
daddy
realizes
there's
a
Goon
School
in
London
too.
"Let's
go
back,
Beta,
to
beat
the
hell
out
of
Anthony
in
Mumbai,"
Daddy
commands.
Make
up
your
mind,
Dad!
Not
that
anyone
seems
to
have
much
brains
in
this
mindless
homage
to
metro-centric
mayhem.
Downsides
Rocky
looks
thoroughly
confused
all
the
time
...
Zayed
Khan
who
plays
the
title
role
gives
deadpan
acting
a
new
definition
and
vigour.
You
really
can't
get
any
more
deadpan
than
Zayed
Khan.
And
you
really
can't
make
a
more
straightforward
cliched
actioner
than
this
one.
The
actors
fake
the
fear
and
the
retribution.
Not
that
you
care
much
about
either.
But
at
least
when
the
going
gets
tough
you
expect
the
tough
to
get
going.
There's
just
no
escape
from
this
one.
Rocky
just
assails
your
senses
with
a
bit
of
sub-standard
cinema.
Jha's
judgment
Unless
you
are
a
diehard
Zayed
Khan
fan
who
likes
to
see
him
grin
and
grimace
with
equal
placidity,
don't
bother.
