L2: Empuraan

"While Prithviraj Sukumaran's directorial sequel is visually ambitious with strong technical execution, the writing struggles to maintain dramatic tension as the narrative progresses, ultimately reducing complex political and communal dimensions to a simplistic tale of power-hungry politicians."

"Despite its ambitious scale, L2: Empuraan struggles to match the impact of its predecessor but remains an intriguing watch for fans of Lucifer. The sequel falters slightly due to overambition and excessive heroism, veering off track at times."

"Prithviraj Sukumaran's 180-minute magnum opus not only sails on a national panorama but also fails to muster sufficient positive appraisal from the critics. The film falters here and at many other places. Not enough for a Mohanlal-Prithvi film."
