It would be right to call Chanakya Thanthram as more of a suspense filled entertainer, which only manages to thrill the audiences at parts.(more)

A tepid thriller
The scriptwriter has to be applauded for weaving in very current and disturbing social issues and the director has showed courage in highlighting the issues starkly. Coming to the roles, Unni is in his element as the confident, cunning and intelligent detective who also knows to take down a dozen villains with his bare hands. The tag of 'action king' suits him to a T. Sshivada, Shruthi, Anoop Menon all shine in their respective roles. The editing could have been a bit tighter in the first half. The cinematography by Pradeep Nair is good and the music by Shaan Rahman did not fail to thrill. The BGM in parts was out of place when some action sequences played out. All in all, a one-time watch.

A suspense thriller, which is also a leisurely watch. If you are an Unni Mukundan fan, this film is for you.
For Unni Mukundan fans, it is a mass entertainer and it will not bore a normal movie goer. While Unni Mukundan proves his acting calibre without losing the thrill of the movie, Kannan Thamarakulam manages to bring out an interesting and relevant message through the film which should be definitely appreciated. It is heartening to see that the industry is transforming alongside the society.(more)
