Ace Movie Review

Driven by a desperate need to shed his criminal history and begin anew, Bold Kannan (Vijay Sethupathi) makes one last call to his incarcerated former associates before relocating to Malaysia. There, he forms an unlikely friendship with Arivu (Yogi Babu), a rag picker who projects the image of a successful businessman to impress Kalpana (Divya Pillai). Their lives intersect with Rukku (Rukmini Vasanth), a resilient woman juggling multiple jobs to survive, all while being tormented by memories of her abusive past with Rajadurai (Babloo Prithviraj).

After an initial misunderstanding where she mistakes Kannan for a thief, Rukku gradually grows closer to him. However, when Kannan steps in to help Rukku navigate troubles at her job, they find themselves entangled with the dangerous gangster Dharma (BS Avinash), a notorious figure in the world of smuggling and illegal arms dealing. What follows next should be watched on-screen.

The movie has managed to evoke good pre-release buzz. Will the Tamil film live up to the expectations? Find out

Haricharan Pudipeddi:#ACE - @VijaySethuOffl's film is a refreshingly fun crime comedy that's mostly lighthearted and makes for a good watch. Feels a slightly bloated in length, but thankfully has enough LOL moments to keep the proceedings going. One of those films where the hero picks brains over brawn.
@rukminitweets shines in her Tamil debut with a meaty part.
@iYogiBabu gets a solid part to entertain after a long time.

Cineobserver: What a delightful entertainer! #ACE is just what I was craving for. A pleasant, funny simple entertainer that has loads of action, romance and comedy! A film that truly makes you forget the pressures of life and relax for a good three hours.
@VijaySethuOffl looks smart, having lost a lot of weight. Delivers a neat performance.
@RukminiVasanth delivers a measured performance. @iYogiBabu combines well with #VijaySethupathi to constantly provide humour!

Siddarth Srinivas: #Ace - A tidy and harmless commercial entertainer that rides on the Vijay Sethupathi - Yogi Babu combo. The first half takes time to set things up but there are some fun stretches in the second half, especially in the 40 minute climax run.

The Malaysian backdrop of the film sets it apart from other films in the genre, and Rukmini Vasanth gets a full-fledged role in her Tamil debut. A time pass entertainer on the whole.

Rajasekar: #Ace - The film is all about how Bolt Kannan, an outsider to Malaysia pulls off a heist to solve all the problems of his lover (
@rukminitweets ) and his new friends (@iYogiBabu, @DivyaPillaioffl ) who all are in need of money for various reasons . What majorly works in the film is
@VijaySethuOffl and @iYogiBabu combo , especially in the second half of the film. Yogi is in fine form and provides good laughter.
@Aaru_Dir has smartly connected all the blank dots from the first half in the second half and thus, made it into a neat watch!
@rukminitweets role is completely different from what we have seen in Side A. As said earlier, her role is the reason behind the main conflict.
@DivyaPillaioffl has also done a neat job.
Babloo Prithviraj gets a full length antagonist role after a long time.
@SamCSmusic sets the mood for commercial treatment of the director.
Overall, an adequately entertaining heist thriller.
Rating : 3 out of 5

sridevi sreedhar: #Ace 3/5 is a fun, action, laugh riot which makes no pretensions as it's designed not to be taken seriously. There is no logic and the humour runs throughout with an excellent chemistry between @VijaySethuOffl and @iYogiBabu.. The one-liners and comedy is bang on! No vulgarity or violence, this is perfect for families seeking time pass entertainment. @Aaru_Dir has packaged the film in a slick manner and there are no dull moments.
@rukminitweets is apt for the role. @SamCSmusic has done a good job with soothing numbers ๐ŸคฉOn the whole, it's a harmless watch this weekend ๐Ÿ‘

CK Review: @CKReview1 #ACE (Tamil|2025) - THEATRE
VJS's urban getup, Malaysia Backdrop, VJS-Yogibabu Combo's Comedy Gud. Rukmini ok. 'Uruguthu' song s nice. Idea Gud, Execution is middling. Though thr r back 2 back events happening, the connect is missing & narration is not gripping enough. AVERAGE!
