A1 is a simple, fun film if you can forget the seriousness or stay away from testing the logic! Santhanam and co have provided a fairly engaging experience!

Santhanam's A1 is a very watchable commercial, comedy-driven entertainer that would engage the masses. Even though the logic goes for a toss, this film has some good and funny moments alongside decent performances and quirky, well written dialogues. If only for some better staging of the serious tra...(more)

A1 manages to engage viewers because of some fun moments.

The plot as such offers nothing new, but A1 provides ample entertainment, thanks to the chemistry between Santhanam, MS Bhaskar, Thangadurai, Manohar and Saikumar.

Santhanam destroys every woke mind with a barrage of regressive tropes

The problem lies not in writing characters belonging to two different worlds or two different communities. It is about the treatment given to their characters, and director Johnson does grave injustice with his stereotypical depiction of the two worlds. Google tells me that the abbreviation for A1 i...(more)

A Pointless, But Wildly Funny Comedy That's Impossible To Take Seriouslyv

The thing is, it's a film that's impossible to take seriously with a wild laugh every five minutes or so. Like the scene where a drunk relative violently stabs his enemy with�a banana. Or that hilarious cameo by Mottai Rajendran where he plays a gangster who specialises in blackmailing people with C...(more)

A No-Holds Barred Santhanam Film That Doesn't Quite Care About What It Says

All through A1, you alternate between cringing at the apathetic portrayal of caste and class, and a few times, guilty-laughing at some relatively clean humour. But perhaps the biggest joke of all, and one that will most likely be mined for laughs in Santhanam's next film is Hindu Tamizhar Katchi's p...(more)
