The verdict
Irumbu Thirai is a dependable Tamil film — it does what it sets out to do. It holds a 6.8/10 on TMDB from 51 ratings, right around average territory. At 160 minutes it's a long sit, so save it for when you've got the evening. In Singapore you can stream it on Sun Nxt, Zee5.
Should you spend 2h 40m on it?
2h 40m of Tamil action with thriller threaded through. A little over the usual, so start it earlier than you think.
