Not Sharp As Expected, But Not Blunt Too
Etharkkum Thuninthavan has its engaging moments, but there�s an equal amount of weak elements too. With a strong subject in hand, what could have been an enjoyable family entertainer with thrills is drained down to a mixed bag due to its mediocre packaging. (more)

Progressive outlook elevates this generic masala movie

Suriya shoulders a thoughtful commercial film
