Ratings and reviews

Great movie, but remake of malayalam movie traffic released in 2011. First hat goes off there...then here. Even run remake turned great

Nice movie, but they could have added more action. They seem very interested in showing every character cry

Outstanding piece of cinema!!!! Narrative moves back n forth a lot but not once do you miss the pulse of the movie !!!! Google should add more regional movies like these.
