Verdict
Recce’s major advantage is the premise to bring the audience into the movie or web series world the premise and mood is the most important aspect and the Recce team has done a brilliant job in bringing the dark mood, Recce doesn’t offer you a new story but what made Recce is engageable is the interesting screenplay and well-designed charters.
The series starts off well, the director made a clever job as he didn’t waste the time establishing the plot in the first episode he established the conflict and it makes you watch the remaining episodes, the 7 episodes of this series have a lot of shades and every episode treatment was so well but few episodes are a bit overstretched and makers cleverly managed with some scenes though those scenes are not added anything to the story.
We have seen many political backdrop movies but to make a series on this point it’s not easy to engage the whole series, amidst drawbacks the series has a lot of twists and turns which are placed so well.
Sriram as Lenin did a decent a job but the character is not so challenging as the character design itself is flat, Siva Balaji has no scope to perform, and Danya Balakrishnan, Adukalam Naren all the characters did their best
Poluru Krishna has done a decent job as he succeeded in engaging the audience to some extent but the writing could have been stronger, just because of the poor writing the characters look so flat.
Technically Recce is quite good and Ram. K. Mahesh has done a brilliant brilliant job in bringing the 90’s look and the use of color of pallet is quite good and Sriram Maddury’s background score is good and the rest of the departments did well.
Finally, Recce is an engageable series, and if your fan of action thrillers then you must give it a try streaming on Zee5.
Rating: 3/5
