Critics Review

Strong Message

All the characters are well-written. The narration keeps one engaged all through. One gets a feeling of travelling in the bus as the film progresses. The film is a mix of feel-good moments and at the same time emotional moments. Three cheers to Saravanan for making a crisp talked that is racy and riveting and at the same time carrying a strong message.(more)

Overall Engeyum Eppodhum is a neat entertainer with a strong message and a must watch film for bus drivers.

Though the film runs on two parallel stories, director Saravanan's racy and clear screenplay makes it more interesting without any confusions. Kudos for all the four actors for dubbing in their own voices, which has become a rare thing in Tamil cinema.(more)

Above Average

The highlight of the film is it lead actors Anjali, Ananya, Jai and Sarva who live the role of the characters they play. On the downside the film drags a bit in the first half, and there are too many flashbacks coming one after the other, which is confusing in the first half.(more)

Breezy narrative and youthful performances make it worth watching

The elaborate sequences inside the buses have also been photographed effectively. The tight editing has kept the non-linear narrative not too confusing.(more)

A loveable tale of commoners and their destiny!

Engeyum Eppodhum is a film which has simplicity as its biggest strength. There is immense likeability in the way the characters have been fleshed out, as common people, and the romance becomes endearing for the same reason. And, that is also the reason that our emotions ebb and flow with them when destiny plays its hand. Cinema usually is built around antagonists and protagonists. Here, there are neither, just normal people, their lives, love and destiny. And, there are a couple of messages effectively put forth at the end. (more)

Path-breaking

Though the main story that drives home an emotional message is straightforward and simple, the narration isn’t linear as it has been tactfully interspersed with flash cuts that blend beautifully into the screenplay.(more)

Enjoyable entertainment with a meaningful message!

As a whole, ‘Engeyum Eppodhum’ also joins the big league of big films in content, though made as a small budget and as small actor movie, with its out-of-the-box story and wonderfully woven screenplay, and a neat performance of the characters.(more)

These are minor quibbles. Engeyum Eppodhum is a genuinely heart-warming story, not just about romance, but about the fabric of life itself. (more)
