Intent is hailed as one of the goriest and most thrilling movies of recent times. The plot is replete with thrill and horror, as it explores the dark labyrinths of a criminal mind. Intent can be labeled as a synonym of ‘scary’.
The movie portrays the mayhem and chaos that follows a kidnapping. Intent does not deal with the subject of kidnapping in a usual way, since the kidnapper in this movie touches a new high of evil. A massive manhunt by the Police force that spans the entire neighborhood proves futile, as the kidnapper continues to evade the police. The chase takes a dangerous turn as terror reigns over the suburban neighborhood. Intent is compared to a revival of ‘Silence of the Lambs’, offering unparalleled terror. The high end chases that end up in vain till the very climax, threaten to explode the viewers’ nerves. Every lurking shadow and every single dark corner seems dangerous. The cat and mouse chase is enough to baffle anyone. The race in Intent, is not to capture, it is to kill or get killed. The movie follows the adage of ‘kill to live.’ This movie promises to hook on the audience with its sheer narrative capacity.
The buzz that surrounds the movie is alluring. The storyline is not that of a simple thriller. It can better be termed as a psychological thriller. The murderous red eyes that flash in the background never fail to send a chill down the spine. The cunning and shrewdness of a brutal, villainous mind has never been explored in a better way than in Intent.
