What critics say Critics are divided: 1 of 10 rated critics gave it 3.5 or more, 1 gave it 2 or less. Praised: the action, the direction and the emotion.

Firstpost · Sreedhar Pillai

Vivegam has a wafer thin storyline but is laced with what Siva calls €œtheatre moments€ or scenes where fans will clap and whistle with joy.

The movie also falls short of emotional & sentimental connect, which are usually the strong suite of director Siva.

Vivegam movie review: The film has good music, good visuals, high-voltage action sequences, picturesque landscapes and beautiful faces. Also add heartwarming moments between the characters of Ajith and Kajal Aggarwal to the list.

Vivegam has rightfully come up for praise thanks for the difficult stunts that Ajith has pulled off. However, the film falls short of being great as it fares poorly in the writing department. | Entertainment News

Siva packs enough firepower into Vivegam to please the core Ajith fans but it looks it might please only them. Arbitrary twists and excessive action distractions could have been avoided.

The Times of India · Suganth

Vivegam is an over-the-top but engaging action thriller with a calculated mix of brawn and brain, action and sentiment, smartly pandering to fans while giving families something to connect with.

Making death threats for a film review is neither veeram (bravery) nor vivegam (prudence).

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 one star's films 1 or 5 stars count for less. A few early ratings cannot swing it. Nothing is hidden: we show the star bars above.
