Die Hard Mets Assault on Precinct 13:

#Kaithi 5 stars. Picking pieces of jaw from the floor. A relentless action film set in a world where Virumaandi meets Die Hard meets Assault on Precinct 13. Absolutely brilliant. Still can't believe how @Dir_Lokesh pulled it off. A new benchmark has been set for action films

Razor Sharp Work:

#Kaithi :4/5. Nice to see a solid part for character actor George Maryan in the latter half; @itsNarain has a grt part in the 1st half. Dheena travels throughout, along with @Karthi_Offl. Youngsters playing students also shine.@SamCSmusic @sathyaDP @philoedit razor sharp work👌

Terrific Film With Intense Screenplay:

#Kaithi - Only Negative We Feel Is The Film Is Raw And Might Not Cater To 6-60 Audience. But If You Really Want To Watch A Film With Terrific Performances And Intense Screenplay Then Kaithi Is The Film. -3.75/5

Verdict - Diwali Winner By Miles

Despite locking horns with Vijay for Bigil, Karthi's Kaithi is doing quite well and is expected to do a decent business given its positive response. Are you excited to watch Kaithi this Diwali?
