What the critics say

Critics call it stylish and visually inventive with catchy music and strong performances, but most find the screenplay underwhelming, citing Akshay Kumar's loud, unconvincing accent and an underused Nayanthara.

Derived by Filmi
56
How this number was made. We read every review and derive a 0–100 reading from each — including where the critic printed a number, which stays first on its row, because it’s theirs. The Filmi Score is the mean of 4 readings; 3 of those rows also carry the critic’s own rating, shown beside ours. Rubric v2.1, computed 26 Oct 2026. Any critic can ask us to remove a derived reading.
