Anjaan movie review: what critics say (10)
What critics say Critics are largely negative: 0 of 9 rated critics gave it 3.5 or more, 6 gave it 2 or less. Criticised: the script and the pacing.
It is high time Lingusamy, who is reluctant to change, accepts the fact that age-old formula doesn't work anymore.
Read the full reviewWatch this film for its well-choreographed action-sequences, and Suriya's dynamic performance.
Read the full reviewWeak script, too much attention on Suriya spoils Anjaan...
Suriya's fans have tons of scenes to enjoy and scream, and Samantha's fans have gazillions of rapturous moments to cherish.
Read the full reviewThe story is set against the familiar backdrop of Mumbai. Lingusamy’s attempt to create a “Badshah” out of Suriya has missed the mark.
Read the full reviewSuriya is the saving grace in otherwise a slow moving film. Vidyut has a meaty role and he is ok. One of the major drawbacks of the film is its length, nearly 3 hours.

How is the fan score worked out?
It is a Fair Score, not a plain average. Votes from brand new accounts, accounts that have rated only one film, several votes from one network, sudden bursts, and accounts that only ever give 1 or 5 stars count for less. A few early ratings cannot swing it. Nothing is hidden: we show the star bars above.
