Reviews
Kadal drew mixed reactions from critics upon its release. While some appreciated the visual brilliance and directorial finesse of Mani Ratnam, others found the storytelling lacking depth. The film's powerful performances, especially by Gautham Karthik and Thulasi Nair, received accolades. Rotten Tomatoes said, 'Kadal, with its water metaphor, dives into a sea of emotions but fails to stay afloat consistently.' IMDb echoed similar sentiments by giving it a rating of 5.5/10. Metacritic noted, 'Kadal showcases Mani Ratnam's artistic vision but falls short in narrative cohesion.' Despite the polarizing reviews, Kadal remains a noteworthy addition to Mani Ratnam's filmography.
