Retro

"Retro is an entertaining star vehicle that is made to serve a higher purpose, even if it goes around in circles. While the initial romance scenes between Paari and Rukmini work really well, the portions in Andaman don't have the same impact. The film oscillates between entertaining and exhausting, and whether Retro wins your fancy depends on whether you are convinced by Karthik's audacious narrative choices."

"Director Karthik Subbaraj has been someone who makes films that are a blend of genres, stylish and use music as a narrative tool. His latest film, Retro, starring Suriya, follows this same pattern and presents the Kollywood star in an action avatar with a streak of romanticism and sentiments."
