Short and Bittersweet
Biju Viswanath has not dwelt on narrating a story. He wants the audience to experience something.The phrase 'Journey is the destination' is shown at the end.The film too is a journey and if you are expecting it to have a definite start and an end to a story you might be disappointed. The humour definitely clicks. It is the emotional moments that is a mixed bag.(more)

Father-Son Relationship Personified
Orange Mittai is technically strong too. Biju Viswanath's unique way of narrating a story has worked like a charm in Orange Mittai.(more)

Vijay Sethupathi's performance on life's lessons in a non-preachy manner is enjoyable
The father-son bond is something special which has been talked in many films. In Orange Mittai, the director deals with it in the most practical manner and with a difference. Like how an orange mittai is sour-sweet, life comes with its own flavors and tastes which should be savored and moved on because the journey is destination.(more)

A light hearted film
The movie misses some solid dialogues that could have taken the movie into the next level; the two characters weigh the screenplay on their shoulders and drive home its intention. Orange Mittai is a simple feel good movie without much fuss and hype silently will enter into your hearts and leave with a small mark.(more)

Feel good drama
Orange Mittaiis a crisp film with less melodrama and some genuine feel good moments while a little bit extra effort on the characterization and writing, it would have made a remarkable attempt.(more)

This old-age loneliness tale a must-see
Orange Mittai is a refreshing relief from the distressingly long and annoyingly loud and exaggerated Tamil works that one has been bombarded with in recent times. Biju Viswanath keeps his narrative -- at least most of the times tastefully understated.(more)

Orange Mittai is a beautiful film
Powerful presence of Vijay Sethupathi that has you completely hooked. He has got every expression, every movement right, even the silly grin and the frequent coughing fits. The well-oiled, neatly parted hair, discoloured teeth with a distinct paunch and thick glasses complete the look with scarcely a reminder of the young actor. Definitely a role of a lifetime for this versatile actor.(more)
