Well made but with a manipulative climax!!!

The film keeps you adequately interested and most of the humour is nicely done. The scenes involving the lead pair living under the same roof with different intentions work big time. Watch out for how the menace caused by the snoring of our hero is communicated to him.(more)

Many Selvaraghavan touches in a mixed bag

Maalai Nerathu� also brings to Tamil cinema a new, important issue, which I can�t quite mention without spoiling the film. But suffice it to say that it�s a bit disappointing that not enough screen time is spent delineating the after-effects on the victim, despite an entire half occurring after the ...(more)

Selvaraghavan's intriguing and fearless writing and Amrit's pleasant background score, the film is blessed with a good technical crew. (more)

MNM couldn't build anything out and out. Excluding the part of having taken a slightly different issue, there was no different work done, rather a letdown. The Direction and Screenplay, both suffered of amateurish, incapable trail that couldn't hold. The Actress has the capacity to play roles of suc... (more)
