While the idea would have been to make audience feel the moment of sweet victory, all it does is ruin the palette for those who enjoy a good commercial film.

Despite a very predictable plot and an over-the-top climax, Viswasam has several moments worth paying a visit to the theatre. The bang for buck interval fight sequence in the rain is one of the highlights of the film.

The plot also becomes predictable once the real story unfolds. But the lack of evident flaws make it a one time watch entertainer.

Siva seems to have taken the memes and mean tweets personally. He doesn't try for the wannabe-ness of Vivegam. The writing is clean, simple. He isn't out to win the Oscar for Best Screenplay, but he fills his film with solid emotional beats.
