Critical reception


Thiraipadam wrote that the film "itself is an age-old revenge tale that offers nothing new and so, the proceedings are predictable, most of the time."[5] The Hindu wrote "The screenplay is Arjun's. So is the direction. And the action hero thrills his fans with stunts aplenty. Yet fights alone, however well choreographed, cannot make a film watchable. You need a well-narrated story — something "Ezhumalai" lacks. Most of the time action waits for no reason and seems to need no logic."[6] Sify wrote that "the film caters strictly to the frontbenchers".[7]
