Leo Twitter review.


A user wrote, "#Leo Review - #ThalapathyVijay's intense performance & two extreme variations is a big plus. Another highlight is, the movie travels with a doubt of whether Parthiban is really Leo or not. Superb 1st half followed by a good 2nd half. Hyena scene, restaurant fight, car chase, Leo das entry & a couple more technically brilliant theater worthy moments guarantee a repeat watch. Movie has cute & enjoyable nuances including the ending. #Anirudh surprises yet again. Just that movie could've had a better motive for conflict & the villains could've been stronger than expected. Otherwise, its a pakka #LokeshKanagaraj Action Packed Entertainer. Repeat worthy for his theater moments. BLOCKBUSTER!"

A fan wrote, "#OneWordReview...#Leo : BLOCKBUSTER. Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️½   Leo is a WINNER and more than lives up to the humongous hype… #LokeshKanagaraj immerses us into the world of Mass pan-Indian film, delivers a KING-SIZED ENTERTAINER…"


 






Meanwhile, South film critic and trade analyst Manobala Vijayabalan also shared his review of the film and wrote, "Tried to be a lion🦁 but ended up as a cat🐈.  Despite a promising premise and some commendable efforts from Joseph Vijay and cast, the end result is a disappointment. Lokesh Kanagaraj's Leo fails to live up to the expectations or unnecessary hype. Also, the film does not maintain a consistent level of engagement, leading to moments of boredom that detract from the overall viewing experience. The film is no where near Vikram or Kaithi, it is the weakest in Lokesh career. A Mediocre Effort."
