A revenge thriller that scores high on atmospherics!!!

A tight and competent revenge thriller that is on the mark for the most part. Special mention about the grim mood and the consistent eerie atmosphere that we are rarely exposed to in Tamil cinema.(more)

If the film finally feels a little underwhelming, it is only because the initial portions are terrific

We get to experience the crime that set the protagonist on his vengeful path the same way he experienced it, and this makes the horror all the more chilling.

Gripping revenge thriller worth a watch

The blood and gore could have been toned down a bit. But such a treatment is required for a serious film like this. And the flashback is also a bit predictable. Nevertheless, a gripping revenge thriller that's worth a watch especially if you are a fan of raw action.(more)

A solid vendetta thriller, starring M Sasikumar, that reimagines a typical story with treatment and craft

At the end of this narration, again, the director pulls off a nifty trick. That's the thing with a hard-working filmmaker - even the cliches seem less cliched.(more)

An intelligent revenge thriller

Yes, there is blood shed but the plot and screenplay completely justifies it. We have seen SR Kathir's camera travel along with the characters in Subramaniapuram, he has once again repeated the magic in Asuravadham. Kathir's long shot in the climax is a masterclass stuff, as his camera effortle...(more)
