  1. Cinema Express

    Film review ·

    Despite Priyadarshan's interesting modifications to the original story, Corona Papers fails to make one emotionally invested and its inability to find a fittingly logical resolution to all its threads work heavily against it.
  2. Times Of India

    Film review ·

    Nevertheless, the film fails to engage as the characters lack depth. This crime thriller isn't the best of director Priyadarshan.
  3. Ottplay

    Film review ·

    For a crime thriller, Corona Papers ends up as a rather tedious watch due to its intent-less characters and meandering storytelling. The effort to keep things unpredictable seems to be focused only on how Siddique's character evolves. But the payoff here is far from rewarding.
  4. The Hindu

    Film review ·

    Despite its glitches, including some horrible dubbing, Corona Papers remains an average thriller due to the strength of its script.
