Nenjam Marappathillai Movie Ratings

Critics like Baradwaj Rangan and Filmi Craft has also given the movie 3 stars out of 10. According to the critics, Nenjam Marappathillai is a horror story of it's kind with the right casting, striking visuals, impeccable music score, and the performances of the actors making the movie an interesting watch. However, according to them, the one major drawback is that the directors could have invested some more time in shaping Regina character more as they could not feel emotionally connected with the victim thus there being a lack of satisfaction when the movie came to an end.

The movie is however well received by the audience with it getting a rating of 9.1 stars on IMDb which is pretty high denoting that the horror thriller is a must-watch.
