An Interesting Dance
Pandiraj does a lot of things right in his first action film. He has not changed the template but has surely reworked a few things and kept things nice and tight. The initial hour involving the love track might seem a commercial compromise but it actually does play a part in the proceedings and impa...(more)

'Kathakali'- Doesn't have the expected intensity, but is a one time watch.
Kathakali can definitely be considered for a one time watch but it might fail to give you that 100% satisfaction that you may seek. (more)

Kathakali is a good entertainer that slowly builds into an action packed thriller.
The director wastes no time in getting into the groove; a ruthless goon Thamba, from Cuddalore with two trusted sidekicks builds his share of enemies who wait on an opportunity to pounce on him and not far away is our hero who returns back to India after a few years, predictably yes he has his own s...(more)

Vishal's film is a good watch this Pongal
Director Pandiraj has delivered a thriller that is quite racy for the most part. As far as Vishal's role goes there are similarities with the roles he has essayed in some earlier films like Pandiyanadu. The actor has delivered a realistic performance in a role that shows a range of emotions from joy...(more)

Fairly watchable thriller.
Pandiraj�s earlier film, Pasanga 2, was a well-intentioned mess, but he�s regained a bit of form here. At least, this looks like a piece of cinema. It�s shot well. It moves briskly. There�s a nice �mass� touch involving a selfie. Some thought has gone in. I know it doesn�t sound like much, but we a...(more)

A Decent Thriller
Director Pandiraj sure knows how to fabricate a thriller. The director, known for presenting high quality children films, will be signed in to helm more action-thrillers, post Kathakali. (more)

Kathakali felt like past Movies. The significance the Movie for itself amounted to almost nothing. With using the few changes that would require of a Crime/Thriller, The Director didn't do justice unlike of his previous one. 0.5 star for mixing in from Movies, in a partly proper manner. (more)

A brilliant movie from Pandiraj. The film started like a normal action movie with a intro song and love tracks but quickly gets into the story, it would be better to call it as a guessing game. Vishal as Amudhan does his part well. Hip Hop Adhi's BGM is adequate. Thanks to pandiraj for keeping the r... (more)

Climax twist,story, Visual characterization,bam and music are good.but other areas like screenplay,comedy big disappointment.
