Reviews
Moviesda Reviews
Trauma shows glimpses of potential but stumbles with weak execution and forced storytelling. Its attempt at a hyperlink narrative feels disjointed, and logical gaps make the mystery less convincing. While the director avoids an exploitative approach, the film still relies on outdated ideas of masculinity and uses sexual violence as a plot device. The cinematography and performances, especially from Vivek Prasanna, are strong, but they can’t fully lift the film beyond its flaws. I will rate the movie 2 stars out of 5 stars.
Critical Reviews
Akshay Kumar of The Cinema Express rated the movie one star out of five stars and feels Trauma struggles to find its footing, with a disjointed narrative and weak character arcs. Its attempt at a hyperlink structure falls flat, and logical inconsistencies make the mystery unconvincing. Forced comedy interrupts the flow, while deeper themes like adoption are barely explored. With a predictable climax, the film ultimately fails to leave a lasting impression.
Kirubhakar Purushothaman of News18 rated the movie 2 stars out of five stars and feels the movie uses sexual violence as a lazy plot device, a growing trend in Tamil cinema. While the director avoids an exploitative gaze, the film struggles with weak writing, disconnected subplots, and misplaced humor. The conflict takes too long to unfold, and even its message on child adoption feels superficial. Despite good cinematography, Trauma relies on easy shortcuts, making it a forgettable watch.
Abhinav Subramanian of The Times of India rated the movie 2 stars out of five stars and finds Trauma riddled with implausibilities, from its far-fetched fertility scam to outdated notions of masculinity. The three storylines intersect predictably, relying on weak logic and forced drama. Despite solid performances—especially from Vivek Prasanna—the writing fails to explore deeper themes. Emotional moments feel forced, and the film struggles to make a meaningful point. In the end, all the pieces are there, but the story never truly comes together.
Audiences Reviews
The movie got decent reviews from audiences. Only 100 people rated the movie 6 stars out of 10 stars on IMDb, which are decent reviews for a Tamil movie. Also, these reviews can be fake as the reviewers are low.
