A relevant story told with predictable beats
Sasikumar and Simran, sharing significant screen space for the first time, create a believable and grounded couple facing immense pressure. Sasikumar portrays Das's determination and underlying warmth, while Simran brings a blend of vulnerability and strength as the mother holding the family together. Their natural chemistry is a definite plus. The younger son, played by Kamalesh, also provides moments of genuine levity (though sometimes his chatter grates), and the film's use of authentic Sri Lankan Tamil dialect adds a valuable layer of realism to their interactions. Tourist Family is a gentle look at the challenges of starting over, even if the narrative feels somewhat formulaic.(more)

Sasikumar, Simran headline a heartwarming and beautiful film about loving thy neighbour
The Sasikumar-Simran starrer scores heavily on the humour front, and these moments also make you think of how willing audiences are just to forget everything and laugh with a film that also makes them think a lot(more)

A feel-good entertainer elevated by a stellar Sasikumar and Simran
Tourist Family is not just a story about a family, but about how humanity is above everything and how a random group of people come together to form a bond thanks to being neighbours. It teaches us to rise above preconceived notions about people based on where they are from or what they do, and that differences are part of who we are.(more)

Sasikumar-Simran film is all white and pure love
Director Abishan Jeevinth�s �Tourist Family� is one such film that fills your heart with joy, despite its convenient writing. The world of �Tourist Family� is all white and pushes you to be one too.(more)

A soulful tale of survival and solidarity
A deceptively light film that juggles grief, humour, and warmth in equal measure, powered by Sasikumar�s deeply humane performance and a cast that embodies the messy goodness of everyday people (more)
