A masala movie that forgets its primary goal - entertainment!

The intention behind a film is solely the right of the makers. With the dialogues about the superiority of Tamils and the importance of agriculture, it is clearly evident on what the motive of the film is. But you got to treat any subject with a certain amount of respect. You fit in these amidst an ...(more)

Seemaraja is enjoyable for its comedy and commendably executed historical portions!

Seemaraja could have worked a lot better if the screenplay was more interesting, but from a general audience perspective, these things might not be a bigger concern.(more)

Sivakarthikeyan as usual steals the show!

To be honest, Seema Raja is not as funny as Varuthapadatha Valibar Sangam and Rajini Murugan. As we have seen Sivakarthikeyan - Soori combo in many films, their average fun moments in Seema Raja hasn't worked much. Until the historic portion, the screenplay goes in various directions which tests our...(more)

This Sivakarthikeyan film is a spiritual sequel to Thamizh Padam

The director has spoofed many popular films. For example, Seema Raja, who has no record of grappling experience, takes over the arena and mimics Salman Khan�s wrestling moves from Sultan. Soori rips off his jersey in the middle of a grappling match and begins to flex his recently developed abs and b...(more)

Seema Raja has no basic story or structure and is a mishmash of scenes etched out of various Rajinikanth films (Muthu, Sivaji, Padayappa) and a period part which reminds you of Baahubali and Padmavat. The idea seems to be giving a boost to the image of Sivakarthikeyan at the expense of a proper stor...(more)

This Sivakarthikeyan movie is a colourless comedy

Seema Raja ends up trivializing even the serious moments due to its compulsive need to entertain audience at all times. The premise of the film, the kings and queens of 21st century, is lost in translation. It is hard for the audience to take Sivakarthikeyan as a modern-day king seriously when direc...(more)

Samantha and Sivakarthikeyan in brainless film

In Seema Raja, their so-called comedy track is a pain to sit through. According to Soori, Habeas Corpus rhymes with KPN Travels - and this is supposed to make the audience laugh. Eyeroll? You bet. It is high time Soori took a step back to analyse his career and where he needs to improve to actually ...(more)

The decline of royalty

Except the lead characters of Sivakarthikeyan and Soori, the casting is generic; Simran seems confused in a role that hardly suits her and demands her to speak in an accent she is uncomfortable with. Director Ponram seems to have clearly missed a trick by trying out to put in too many commercial ele...(more)
