When 'Makkal Selvan' Vijay Sethupathi and Nithya Menon unite for these kind of subjects, it will be a feast for the audience. It is little overcooked feast for us but promised us with lot of interesting and funny things conveyed in a light hearted way.

Vijay Sethupathi as Parotta master I just enjoyed seeing it. He along with Nithya Menon is a great combo to see on big screen. We all face family issues in someway or the other. The way this movie communicated these family fights and misunderstanding in a light-hearted way with cinematic touch is just awesome to see.

This movie was a laughing therapy for people who enjoys these kind of subjects.

Overall a good movie to watch for family audience by not thinking too much about it and not taking it personally.

Rating - 2.75/5

A slapstick fun to watch entertainer set on the backdrop of a temple turned out preachy and monotonous.

The director through the story highlights on the minor rifts between couples and how it turns out to be a trauma for the couples, children and the immediate family members when everyone gets dragged into the endless fight.

Pandiraj has conceived a good entertaining story but the way he portrayed it on screen turned out to be too preachy in the initial half. The monotonous activity being done by different characters turned out to be really monotonous for the audience though some subtle humour in between saved the audience from leaving the cinema hall. The second half of the movie was convincing and reflected more on the story plot. The filmmaker has explored on the emotional and mental trauma the couples go through when there is a rift through very beautiful melodious songs.

Splendid performances by Vijay Sethupathi,Nithya playing the power rugged couples and they just spiced up the entire movie through their natural gestures. Good performances from Yogi Babu, Chemban Vinod, Suresh, Thenappan,Kaali Venkat & Ganesan.

Hats off to the music director Santhosh Narayanan for the feel good songs in the movie.

A watchable entertainer that should definitely be attempted by the couples ruling out the flaws.

Vijay Sethupathi and Nithya had great chemistry in this film. She seems to fit into whatever role she plays, I don't know how. Underrated actor, she.

Barring that, I am not sure if I am able to see why this loud and jarring film is the massive hit that it has become. "Yogi Babu's comedy was great." aam, not sure about that, and I don't know if the film changes if you axe out his entire role. Regressive dialogues kept aside, I wonder if the events of this film are still commonplace in rural-TN and maybe I'm so far away from that reality and out of touch.

While this film was not for me and I think it'll end up in the "Bad movies of 2025" list in my books, I'd rather watch this over a badly made, jarring, 400-Crore commercial film that delivers nothing but fanservice to people who are too afraid to admit that their hero made a bad movie.

The movie is so loud from beginning to end, mostly everyone is shouting. The starting sequences are setting up each character and directly starts into the core plot.

VJS and Nithya both did their job very well, eventhough this is bit overdosed, i liked it the way they portrayed the weird couple. All the supporting cast helped for the flow and did their job very well. Kali Venkat character justification is nice sentiment touch.

Felt lagging here and there, Yogi Babu saved on those moments. This might not be everyone's cup of tea, I liked it.

After credit scenes are LOL, dont miss it.

The film lacked emotional and narrative connectivity due to a poorly written screenplay, which failed to engage the audience or maintain a coherent flow between scenes.

The film struggles to create a strong emotional or narrative connection with the audience due to its weak screenplay.

Scenes often feel disjointed, and the story lacks a smooth, logical flow.

Important plot points are either rushed or underdeveloped, reducing the overall impact.

Despite this, the casting is spot-on, with each actor fitting their role perfectly.

The performances are commendable and could have shined more with a better script,
