Top Reviewers:
INDIA TODAY (Rating: 3.5/5):
As expected, Upendra’s thought-provoking narrative and layered storytelling leave audiences with much to ponder. The film creatively uses metaphors to inspire introspection while commenting on socio-political issues. Although the old-school approach to the screenplay and performances might feel outdated to some, the socio-political commentary blended with satire keeps viewers engaged. Overall, UI firmly establishes itself within the distinctive “director Upendra” genre.
OTT PLAY (Rating: 2/5):
If I were to borrow a line from a Mammootty flick, UI is a movie that you need sense, sensitivity and sensibility for. Decoding it is not exactly rocket science, but the level of enjoyment one derives is purely subjective. This film may or may not work for you; it didn’t for me.
Mirchi9 (Rating: 2.5/5):
Despite the predictable screenplay, one man holds the audience with his presence; the name is Upendra & the trademark sarcasm of world politics; it’s his signature & stamp overall. Overall go watch the film if your a UPPI fan.
