Jilla is a commercial flick and having a strong base in its casting supported by a simple story plot from Neason. Jilla is short time twister and breaks suspense scene by scene. Having two equally popular and established actors in the cast list warrants perfect etching of their characters and Neason has satisfied this big time. The artist's understanding of their roles and their experience comes much handy in the effective portrayal of their respective characters with a lot of aplomb. Out of the other supporting cast members, it is Soori who stands out. The major attraction of the movie is the relationship between the father and his adopted son. The director portrayed the emotions quite well.
After the initial half an hour, the tempo in the story slows down completely till the pre-interval block. Also the scenes between Vijay and Kajal are not convincing and Kajal's character needed a lot of establishment. The abrupt ending is also a big drawback for the movie.
Overall, Jilla is an entertaining film that keeps the viewer engaged throughout and weaves action and drama with family sentiments and ideals in good balance.
