Kaithi movie review: what critics say (8)
What critics say Critics are mostly positive with reservations: 6 of 7 rated critics gave it 3.5 or more.
The strength of the film is that it doesn’t a heroine, songs and punch dialogues. Though it has deviated from the regular Kollywood template, there are enough commercial elements in the scenes that build up to the climax.

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.
