Fantastic emotional out from karthi again. 2nd half is full of emotional and action roller coaster contrast to the 1st half . flashback is a little drag, climax was a lit. Overall lit "

Meanwhile, talking about the film, Karthi had stated, "Raju Murugan is one of most important directors we have in cinema, he has great love for the society. When he narrated the script to me, I realised I had to change the way I look and speak. Japan is the story of a thief who had a unique approach to life and interesting outlook towards society. The film may look like an entertainer, but it is an emotional ride and will make you think".
