A decent rural flick that entertains and engages; easily a onetime watch
Technically the cinematography and music are functional working in sync with the director�s vision. A song or two could have been done away with although they are just minor niggles. A white man as hero�s friend mouthing dialogues on our culture and sensibilities appears a little off beat, but you slowly warm up to him as the story unfolds. Toting it up, Mapla Singam is a film that has all the elements of a rural based, simple entertainer with no major complaints.(more)

A tedious watch
Cinematography by Tharun Balaji is good but the film�s editor Vivek Harshan should have trimmed minimum fifteen minutes of the current running time. Bottom line is if you are a fan of formulaic movies, you might enjoy this but others, please stay away! (more)

A neat rural entertainer that can be watched with family
Vemal fits well in this role and he shows phenomenal improvement in dancing. There are a couple of fight scenes as well. Anjali is perfect in the role of a well-educated sensible and bold woman though there is nothing big for her to perform. Radharavi yet again proves that he is a seasoned performer. Songs by Raghunandan are listenable but one or two of them could have been done away with considering the length of the film. Rerecording and cinematography are adequate.(more)

A flat comedy with serious ambitions
Mapla Singam isn�t disappointing merely because the jokes don�t work, it disappoints because it would have been great to see a comedy with progressive ideas doing well in the hinterland.(more)
