ETimes review
The film is directed by Raju Murugan and ‘My Lord’ features a notable cast including M. Sasikumar, Chaithra Achar, Asha Sharath, and Guru Somasundaram. The ETimes review offered a balanced critique of the film’s strengths and weaknesses, “The satirical instincts work more often than not. A few dialogues genuinely sting, and Sean Roldan’s score does smart, understated work. Raju Murugan gets real mileage out of showing how casually power treats people as disposable, and the premise stays engaging for the most part.” However, it also pointed out major shortcomings. The review further stated, “But nobody in this film feels like a person. They feel like chess pieces. A cop working for the minister poses as a Tirupur businessman to get close to Muthu, a role practically begging for some grey. The film doesn’t care.” It added that emotional beats feel repetitive. “The minister’s two kids each deliver near-identical bedside speeches of devotion, back to back, like the script hit copy-paste on the emotion.” The critique concluded that the pacing and humour at times overextend. “Gags that start sharp get milked a beat too long. Everything moves, but nothing breathes.”Till now, ‘My Lord’ has performed decently at the box office. Occupancy rates in the next few days will determine it’s box office status.
