Sreedhar Pillai: #Boomerang has an interesting premise with @Atharvaamurali in striking dual role, but needs more firmness in script & execution.@RJ_Balaji one- liners r fun.

Ramesh Bala: #Boomerang [3/5] : @RJ_Balaji 's satirical digs at politicians and govt officials receive good applause..
@actorsathish 's comedy oneliners
@Dir_kannanR has blended thriller elements with a social message
#Boomerang [3/5] : @Atharvaamurali has both romantic hero and social crusader role..
He has done both well..
@akash_megha looks good and has dubbed for herself.. She has a cute role..
She has performed confidently..

Rajasekar: #Boomerang - Heavy inspiration from #Yevadu and #Kaththi yet the film fails to entertain(Cocktail not mixed properly). A well intended message driven film which lacks freshness!

Haricharan Pudipeddi: #Boomerang borrows its basic premise from Ram Charan's Yevadu and also treads the Kaththi path with a tepid farming connect, only to emerge as a big bore in the end.

Sathish Kumar M: #Boomerang - Good script. Engaging first half with unusual scenes and usual message oriented second half.
@Atharvaamurali looks handsome and has acted well. @actorsathish comedy dialogues in the first half works to good extent in the first half.

: Watched #Boomerang was a great movie to watch with social message and sarcasm at its level best @actorsathish & @RJ_Balaji did a great job on that and @Atharvaamurali did his best in this movie can see the improvement in many ways. Worth Watching [ 4/5 ]

Vijith Amirthalingam: #Boomerang 1st half - @Atharvaamurali looks smart. @actorsathish one line comedies supports the film to not bore. There is something intriguing behind the face, after he get face transplant. Waiting for the second half @Dir_kannanR
