Rating: ★★★☆☆ (3/5)
Bazooka, the latest action-packed thriller to hit the big screen, explodes with adrenaline-fueled sequences, gritty visuals, and a hero who doesn’t miss. While the film delivers on raw action and high-voltage stunts, it occasionally fumbles when it comes to depth and storytelling.
Bazooka’ Movie Review: A High-Octane Action Blast with Style but Limited Substance
Plot Summary
Set in a chaotic urban underworld, Bazooka follows the story of Aarav, a former military sharp-shooter turned vigilante, who is pulled back into the world of violence after a mysterious arms deal goes wrong. With a powerful weapon (yes, a literal bazooka) falling into the wrong hands, Aarav must race against time to prevent a massive disaster — and uncover the truth behind a betrayal from his past.
Performances
The lead actor shines in a physically demanding role, oozing intensity and charisma. His portrayal of a tormented warrior is convincing, even if the script doesn’t always support him with layered dialogue. The antagonist, a tech-savvy arms dealer, brings menace but could have been more fleshed out. Supporting characters serve the plot well, though few are memorable.
Direction & Cinematography
Directed by Deeno Dennis Movie director, Bazooka thrives on style. The action sequences are sleek, well-choreographed, and often leave you breathless. Whether it’s rooftop chases or explosive showdowns, the film is a visual treat. The cinematography embraces dark, neon-lit cityscapes that match the movie’s tone, while the background score adds a pulsing rhythm to the chaos.

Final Verdict

Verdict: Watch it for the action, stay for the style — but lower expectations for the story.
