| Scroll.inNandini RamnathThe incendiary climax is superbly orchestrated, but the movie is too high-minded and heavy-handed to engage the viewer as pure fiction. |
| FilmfareDevesh SharmaPa. Ranjith has chosen a world class technical team to make his dream project come to light. |
| ScreenAnarchyJ HurtadoNot big enough to be bigger than life, but not real enough to be taken seriously outside of his filmy persona, Kaala is a middling film that doesn't seem to know which side of the fence it wants to be on. |
| Film Companion ReviewsL.M. KaushikKaala is an engaging political mass entertainer from Ranjith. He utilises Rajini's strengths efficiently, much to the relief of the superstar's fans. |

| The National (UAE)Kumar ShyamThe 1.5 stars for this movie is only for Nana Patekar's effort. For the rest of the movie, we recommend loads of popcorn to keep you distracted, or a black eye mask so that you can nod off. |

| User ReviewSen JAbsolutely amazing! I've now seen it 4 times and i'm Just in awe of everyone's performance. The climax is one of the best in Indian cinema. Kudos to the director and to the Superstar. One must have guts to sign up and do a film like this. Respect ! |
