"Kamal Haasan's swag and vivacity are still top-notch at the age of 70 in the film. However, we expected a more refined execution with a superior combo like Haasan and Mani Ratnam. Despite an honest attempt, this one falls flat."Read full review ↗

5.0
"When Kamal Haasan and Mani Ratnam announced that they would be working together after 37 years, it was natural that expectations sky-rocketed. Using a script called Amar Hai by Kamal Haasan as the base, the two movie legends brought the audience Thug Life which features a large ensemble cast."Read full review ↗

3.0
"The Mani Ratnam directorial is plagued by extremely subpar writing that not only fails to make the most of its premise but also falls short in delivering an engaging experience. Filled with uninspired and undercooked moments that lead nowhere, Thug Life ends up as a cinematic endurance test."Read full review ↗
