#MalaikottaiVaaliban 2nd half is way better than first half in every aspect. That post interval block was well taken and movie ended in a good note too As usual, this one won’t cater to every type of audience, but is definitely a good watch. A typical LJP formulaic movie pic.twitter.com/PN8Dl9P0zY

Liked it. Only to be experienced at the cinemas. Don’t go in demanding what you like it to be, just enjoy the world it is set in and the broad genre brushes Lijo is going for. #MalaikottaiVaaliban pic.twitter.com/vtQJAgy6fH

#MalaikottaiVaaliban First Half – Too Average so far
– Making of the movie is good
– Very slow screenplay. No Emotional connect & No Highlight scenes, Too Flat
– Mohanlal screen Presence saves the movie to extent
– Interval point leaves with a good note…need a too… pic.twitter.com/NcLbTiNP5j— AmuthaBharathi (@CinemaWithAB) January 25, 2024
