A bland film
Maaran turns out to be a bland film. It seems like a film made with a checklist of elements but then the team doesn't really know what to do with these elements.(more)

Even Dhanush cannot rescue this bland crime thriller
Just half-an-hour or so into the film,the plot structure starts to feels too straight forward for a Karthick Naren film and we somehow sense a twist coming � and it does! But it hardly creates an impact, for the film never gets us immersed in its world. The world-building is quite weak and the characterisaton one-note. (more)

A passive Dhanush tries to keep you invested in an incomplete film
The promos for Maaran reminded us all that a pen is mightier than the sword. It is high time Karthick Naren puts it to use.(more)

Dhanush's actioner has no substance, only style
Director Karthick Naren�s Maaran featuring Dhanush, Smruthi Venkat and Ameer is an underwhelming film. With a cliched storyline and so-called twists, the film struggles to hold your attention.(more)

Maaran is a wasted opportunity - a dull and uneventful experience!
Karthick Naren's screenplay is not all that great and is actually mediocre. The pacing, character development, necessity of this plot, is all very questionable. Karthick has taken an age-old plot and has treated it in a template fashion, something that is very not him. (more)

Dhanush Is Surprisingly Inert In Bland Film
Barring Dhanush and, to an extent Smruthi Venkat, the actors have little to do in film. Malavika Mohanan gets the worst deal. (more)

An indifferent Dhanush goes through the motions in this inept film
Even at a duration of a little more than two hours, this film seems interminable, trudging from one uninspired development to another(more)

Even Dhanush and his performance cannot save this badly
Dhanush is basically a terrific actor and never disappoints you with his acting. But in this film, the story doesn't let him do much. His character is written so badly that even his acting couldn�t save him.(more)
