Wishing you all the best, Director Balaji sir, and Vijay Antony sir! Looking for more movies in your combination.

Probably the worst ever Tamil Movie i saw after SURA(Was Much Better) . The CGI was so heavy it just killed the movie spirit along with bad BGM. I wonder how the Cinematographer amd Editor could take and edit such Non sense movie and i still wonder how Director and Producer approved it. The Short Films guys have better Cinematography skills.

Pls do not watch this movie as you will be wasting your precious time. I agree the concept choosen was good,But Cinematography, Editing, BGM and even VJ Anthony acting never made an impact on this movie. I saw IMDB rating as 5.3 just logged in to give this movie a 1 star. (Since no option to have negative rating).

Director Balaji 's Hollywood style of filmmaking is intriguing. It gave a fresh feel to the viewers, also sound , art work & camera work garners a special attention till the very end. If you are a suspense genre fan, this KOLAI is the right choice for a wholesome entertainment. Short runtime is also a added advantage for this whodunit film. Vijay Antony & rest of the cast were seen in kingpin roles. Plot is simple but the way of presentation is classy & keeps us engaged throughout. As few flaws such as moderate second half, lacks twist & turns at regular intervals. Overall, a decent crime thriller loaded with solid technical aspects.

Credits to director for bringing a Hollywood pattern to Kollywood, actor Vijay Antony essayed a neat role as a seasoned detective. High points in this film were music, visuals & art direction. Short runtime with Vijay Antony screen presence makes this movie an interesting one. Rest of the cast had less scope, but they depicted a decent job on screen. Too many songs in this intense story is the short coming. Need to trim songs in this mystery tale, so it adds engagement to the storyline. Newbie Siddartha & Meenakshii are seen in very good characters, also their characters are neatly written. On the whole, this murder mystery is a decent watch mainly for the rich visuals.
