Movie Review: Expert Opinions
Critics have given ‘Retro’ blended with wonderful critiques. Suriya’s display presence and Karthik Subbaraj’s fashionable course were extensively praised. However, the film’s field office performance no longer matched the preliminary hype, with collections dipping after Day 1. The tune, specifically the tune ‘Kanimaa’, has come to be a viral hit.
