Overall, this film is an ambitious attempt, weighed down by bad writing. Watch this film if you want to catch a glimpse of Dhanush and if you’re a fan of heist-thrillers.

Like the director’s previous film, Kutty Puli, this movie is sure to cater to the B and C centers. So if you’re a fan of rural movies and an ardent fan of movies with high dose of sentiment, this film is perfect for you.

If you’re looking to have a good time at the cinema, then this movie is perfect for you. Also, if you are a fan of Santhanam, Udhayanidhi and Nayantara, then this movie is sure to entertain you.

Valiyavan is a stylish film, with very good cinematography and some good background score. Watch it if you’re a fan of action films and if you’re an ardent fan of Jai.

As the director quotes – Nobody sees the struggles of a filmmaker, all that people see is the filmmaker’s output and where he stands today. In that case, the director’s debut film is a one he can be proud of, not because of the struggle he’s gone through to make this film, but, because, the way he’s delivered the film is modest, fun and thought-provoking.

Watch this film if you’re a fan of heist thrillers and if you’re in a mood to watch a Hollywood-type of heist-thriller, localized for the Tamil audience. This film also has a superb production-value and s filled with some good performances.

Watch this film if you’re in a mood to see a well-shot film, with an actor who projects (or, rather projected) himself as a larger-than-life hero. Playing the role of a mass hero is not the problem here, but projecting oneself with unbelievable scenarios in an already recycled script is a big drawback. Sivakarthikeyan looks dapper, his face looks bright, beaming with positivity and confidence. If only he paid attention to the script of the film, the same way he took care of his demeanour.

Kappal may be a rise against the tides like a mighty ship, but it will definitely make you laugh. Watch while you munch on some popcorn and have a good time at the cinemas!

This attempt by Lakshmi Ramakrishnan is highly commendable. She tries to bring several stories together. Watch the film for its run-of-the-mill theme, and if you’re a fan of a road film.

Overall the film is a treat for those who are looking to watch a masala movie. Vishal fans will certainly have an enjoyable Diwali.
