TELUGU360 (Rating: 2.75/5):
On the whole, They Call Him OG Reviews is more a fan service celebration than a layered gangster epic. Pawan Kalyan’s towering screen presence, Emraan Hashmi’s strong debut, and Thaman’s music make it worth a watch for fans of the genre. But for those seeking tight storytelling and nuanced drama, the film may feel like style over substance.
GREAT ANDHRA (Rating: 2.75/5):
Overall, five very well executed commercial high blocks, superb music from Thaman, excellent Visuals and Sujeeth’s writing as long as it was focused on elevating the protagonist character, along with Pawan Kalyan who was at his best at most parts, made ‘They Call Him OG’ a decently packed commercial entertainer. It is definitely a must-watch for the fans of Pawan Kalyan. They may watch it multiple times to witness their favourite hero on screen in all his glory. For the regular audience, the film is a decent watch and they certainly can give it a try watching in theatres. However, better care in writing, especially in developing the emotional drama, would have made it a very memorable film.
MIRCHI9 Review (Rating: 2.5/5):
Overall, OG is an action drama where the action works, for the most part, and the drama fails from the start. It’s the fanboy presentation of his star with a lot of care and effort that makes one give OG a pass despite all the issues. OG is a movie for the fans by a fan. Try it if you belong to the cult.
123TELUGU (Rating: 3.25/5):
On the whole, They Call Him OG is Sujeeth’s love letter to Pawan Kalyan and a showcase of his fanism towards the actor. Though the story is ordinary, Pawan Kalyan carries it with his style, swag, and action. The action blocks surely enthral fans. On the downside, the underdeveloped characters, predictable storyline, and family-unfriendly tone act as hurdles. OG is a feast for fans. One can enjoy it for its many high points and for watching Pawan Kalyan in a vintage look with powerful action sequences. Watch this actioner, and you are entertained.
Times Of India (Rating: 3/5):
In the end, They Call Him OG feels like a film designed primarily for fan service and it does deliver in that department. But beyond the style and swagger, it lacks soul. It’s technically strong, features a commanding lead performance, and has moments that will thrill fans, but as a complete cinematic experience, it leaves you wanting more.
