Lingaa Movie Review Times of India

Recommended

In fact, the entire film is low on whistle-worthy moments. Given that this is a Rajini film, we expect punch (and punch dialogues) in the scenes but strangely, the film lacks energy. Even the introduction song is hardly rousing, and we are left with barely a handful of memorable moments to take away with us — a fight scene on a moving train is smartly choreographed, shot and edited and is treat for those who love Rajinikanth the action hero; we get a comical stretch involving a necklace that has to be stolen amidst heavy security to showcase Rajinkanth’s comic flair; there is a scene where Lingeswaran, who is now living with simple means, talks about being rich and living contented that will satisfy those who like the Superstar’s philosophical side.
