Overall its a one time watch. The extra star is for Vijay Sethupathi and the Neeyum Naanum Anbe song from Hiphop Tamizha and its picturization is amazing. With better editing the film could have maintained better tempo as a thriller. Good performances by Nayathara, Atharva Murali and supporting cast. Anurag Kashyap has tried but the language barrier is visible. Although Vijay Sethupathi doesn't have lot of screen time, he steals the show with his presence and natural acting.

This movie was very good, even though we could identify who the antagonist is, they kept the thrill right through the movie. One of the negatives was, length of the movie was too long close to 3 hours, which could have been cut down. Acting of Anurag Kashyap was too good!

Let me make it simple for the readers

The overall theme of the movie was above average but the way it was presented on the screen was over dramatic. The Cast was good, but no one was too good in the movie due to lack of strength in the script and the dialogue it delivered. Nayantara's selection of movie was bold. Too much cliche in the movie which makes it too obvious. Songs were completely unnecessary. Overall you can just watch it one time and then forget about it.

A nicely written cat & mouse game play. Fast & Engaging screenplay with unexpected twists & turns. Nice casting, although Nayanthara & Atharva tries to capture attention, Anurag Kashyap steals the show anyways. Vijay Sethupathi's short role had a significant impact like Madhavan in Rang De Basanti, with his climiax ending up like Ghajini, which could've been altered a bit. The kid scenes were simply enjoyable.

The plot was well constructed and executed. The cast enassemble was near perfect. There were times when the story felt unnecessarily dragged. But overall, the movie will take you through an exciting journey.
