The verdict
Jailer is a solid, watchable Tamil film that mostly delivers on what it promises. It holds a 6.5/10 on TMDB from 127 ratings, right around average territory. At 165 minutes it's a long sit, so save it for when you've got the evening. In Malaysia you can stream it on Amazon Prime Video, Sun Nxt.
Should you spend 2h 45m on it?
2h 45m of Tamil action with crime threaded through. A little over the usual, so start it earlier than you think.
