Aditya Roy Kapur's 'Rashtra Kavach OM' released in theatres today, on July 1.

The film opens with what looks like a video-game action sequence where no one and nothing feel real.

The first-fifteen minutes of the film has every element to displease the audience.

The narrative and the screenplay is disjointed, the background score repetitive and generic.

The action-sequences ( which should have saved the film) poorly directed and choreographed.

Sanjana Sanghi plays a nurse/doctor/fellow-agent whose mission is to help Om get better.

Themes of nationhood, patriotism, loyalty etc. are brutally fired in the audience's face making everything feel predictable.

The action-sequences do get better in the second half but many open threads and concepts remain unaddressed.

Towards the climax of the film, the screenplay feels way too stretched and draggy.

We give 1/5 to Aditya Roy Kapur's 'Rashtra Kavach Om'.
