Kanguva Twitter Review: The eagerly awaited fantasy action drama Kanguva, starring Suriya, Bobby Deol, and Disha Patani, has premiered in theaters across various regions, garnering a mix of reactions from fans. Directed by Siva and produced by Studio Green and UV Creations, Kanguva marks the entry of Bollywood stars Bobby Deol and Disha Patani into Tamil cinema with Suriya taking on dual roles. The cast also features notable actors like Yogi Babu, Redin Kingsley, Natarajan Subramaniam, Kovai Sarala, and K. S. Ravikumar, who add depth to the film's sweeping narrative.
While many viewers praise Suriya for his compelling performance and commend his role as the film's anchor, some have critiqued certain aspects of the film’s execution.
Many viewers praised the film’s scale, Suriya's acting and visual grandeur. One fan posted on X, “#KANGUVA First Half Reports - Never Seen Visual Experience in Indian Cinema. Don't Miss it on the Big Screen. @Suriya_offl’s Screen Presence🔥, @ThisIsDSP’s Music👌, Stylish Francis character - Perfect!” Another echoed this enthusiasm, rating it 4/5 and calling it “insane” with intense action and goosebump-worthy moments.
In another positive review, one viewer described Kanguva as a “blockbuster,” giving it a 4-star rating. Highlights included the film’s choreography, Suriya’s dual roles, and Bobby Deol’s character. “Drama 💥, Action 💥, Cinematography 💥, VFX & visuals Top-notch,” they added.
A X user said, "Rating kanguva is ⭐⭐⭐⭐4/5 Screen ⏯️ better Dramatic ✨ insane Story' longest but best Action full... Ooooo goosebumps Over all time 🐐
However, Kanguva also received mixed feedback. While some appreciated its ambition, others felt the film struggled with its narrative depth. “THEATRE. Suriya superb, especially in periodic scenes. But no other character is as strong. Makeup, fights are good, but BGM is loud,” one X user shared, adding that the historical scenes outshone the present-day segments. “AVERAGE!” they concluded.
In more critical reviews, a viewer mentioned, “Watched Kanguva. Past portion good - Present, cringe. Suriya as Kanguva🔥, but Francis👎. Music strong, but script weak. Felt tiring, even though it’s only 150 minutes.”
"An Average fantasy film! Not Bad, but Not as expected! #Suriya garu nailed it🔥🔥 #BGM mostly worked! #BobbyDeol isn’t as effective! Director #Siva should be appreciated for VISUALS🔥 but story’s depth isn’t properly explored! #Premiere #UK" another user said.
As Kanguva continues its run, reactions from fans and critics alike will shape its trajectory at the box office, but one thing is clear—the film’s ambitious visuals and star-studded cast have made it a notable release in Tamil cinema for 2024.
