Little Murugan's performance is good. But, when the tiger hunt begins, everything spills. Mohanlal even kicks down the tiger when he hunts it! A fairytale will be more convincing than the way he hunts a furious man-eater. The fun part is that even the tigers in the movie don't do justice to the money Tomichan spent. But still the crew boasts about its production quality that overrides Hollywood movies! The most amazing things about Pulimurugan are the mass opinion it generated and the financial success it enjoyed.

The well praised action sequences in the climax remind us of Po in the Kung Fu Panda series. Here the hero runs amidst the shower of bullets without a scratch.The potbellied hero crushes the villain and the trained stuntmen with his little knife tied to a thread. It should be a magic weapon. Because the heavy hero relies completely on it when he jumps and flies up by making a small peck on the trees with the knife at the end. A pathetic villain in a weak and nonsense story complete the Udaykrishna and Vysakh effect.
Gopi Sunder makes some usual buzz in the background. Cinematography is in the expectable range.
The best thing they could do in the post production was a close trimming to remove the lagging and boring scenes completely. It would've definitely lightened the junk burden, the screens bear.
