Overall, this film is interesting and engaging. Watch it if you’re a fan of political-thrillers, and if you have enjoyed S. P. Jananathan’s films in the past.

Purampokku Engira Podhuvudamai’ has its moments when the inmates & police officers nonchalantly trade law points at each other and the cat-and-mouse game between the Jailer & the Prisoner with the Hangman playing the innocent foil. However, the engagement factor goes for a toss as the film tries to take on too many issues.
