Sura is a usual Vijay fare that will be a treat for his hard core fans.
There is no variety in the film and it happens to be a usual Vijay fare. The script seems to be a combination from his earlier ventures. Of course, the actor does not disappoint his hard core fans, as Sura has all the elements that will satiate them. Vadivelu's mere presence is enjoyable. The negative aspects of Sura are no doubt the music, illogical, if not slow screenplay, gravity defying stunts, slow moving scenes.(more)

Nothing much for even the fans.
It is yet another Vijay formula film, but you would be wise to leave your logical brain behind at home. Director SP Raajakumar seems to have re-hashed all old Vijay films to make this one, instead of banking on a better script or brisk screenplay. Probably banking on Vijay's screen presence, the director merrily offers you a thin thread, and there are quite a few moments when your patience is stretched. Cinematographer N K Ehambaram has done a neat job, which you do not miss despite the CG. (more)

Leave your brains at home and enjoy Sura.
Movie-wise, Sura follows the done-to-death formula, so if you're expecting an intelligent script, disappointment will ensue. S P Raajkumar's screenplay looks like it's been patched together to allow for the songs and fight sequences, and has little cohesion. Of logic and rationale, there's pitifully little. Sura is, however, a sort of pseudo-manifesto for Vijay, future politician. Give your brains a rest, and enjoy this mass masala entertainer. That much is guaranteed.(more)

On usual lines.
Vijay looks smarter than he did in his other recent films, his charming smile is intact, his poker-faced comedy has you in splits most of the time and his danger-courting stunts highlight his agility. So, if despite Vijay, Sura fails to sustain your interest, it is the predictable story and the sagging screenplay that are to be blamed. Vadivelu's role is enjoyable whenever it melds with the main narration. Zest marks Mani Sharma's peppy numbers.(more)

A familiar fish.
Vijay is as usual cool, bubbly and enthusiastic. He is energetic and a live wire on screen. Tamannah is as usual cool and bubbly. Vadivelu is a real scene stealer. Dev Gill wins all accolades. Mani Sharma knows the pulse and taste of Vijay-fans as he has loaded the film with tracks that are racy and riveting from the word go. The movie is more targeted at Vijay fans and has scenes to appease them.(more)

Watch Sura if you are a desperate Vijay fan and don't want to miss your screen idol's 50th movie!
Vijay has been loaded with this badly-scripted movie. He does everything he can to make the movie seem entertaining and gets to look younger with every movie. Sura is technically OK. Vijay's dance moves are impressive. The story of Sura is outdated; Vadivelu brings in a few laughs, but it is not a laugh riot. Other supporting actors fail to make an impression since their roles haven't been fleshed out. Kanal Kannan's stunts are OK. (more)

Sura is a roller coaster ride of pure unadulterated masala.
Conviction can bring any formula to life, as proved by the story, screenplay and direction of SP Raajakumar. It is a mass formula movie purely chiseled around Vijay's larger than life image, and packaged to suit the taste of his fans. The story is wafer thin and as old as the Kodai hills. The cardinal rule of the game is not to look for logic or reason, just sit back, relax and enjoy. (more)
