Monkey Man

Dev Patel’s directorial debut is one of the most hotly-anticipated films of the year. And if early reviews are shown to be true, it’s sure to be welcomed with resounding applause.

Based on the myth of Hanuman, Monkey Man is an epic saga of bloody revenge. Our story follows cold-blooded Kid and his relentless pursuit of vengeance, making for a dark and gritty action-thriller that is sure to excite and electrify. Kid spends his nights, incognito, in an underground fight club enduring extreme brutality just to make ends meet, his long-awaited plan to unleash hell against the devil itself – the corrupt metropolitan elite. The eventual fallout results in a film blood-spattered and belligerent, a violent tale fuelled by the fires of personal and political retribution.

Written, directed and starring Patel himself, Monkey Man is gloriously ferocious and not to be missed.
