The storyline has blatant similarities with films like Baahubali & Kochadayaan and ironically some of the instances like the Lilliputian population reminded me of films by Malayalam director Vinayan whom I felt handled it with better grip and perfection,noticeably on a shoe-string budget in comparison with this big budget blunder. 10 minutes into the film one can easily perceive the half-heartedness from the team and the helpless fate of a movie which is bound to land in a mud-pool of boredom and over-confidence from where a recovery is literally impossible.With a lifeless screenplay and indifferent narration,Puli never tries to indulge the viewers into the story or excite them with something novel,but instead follows the usual clichés of a hero-oriented tamil film,the stereotyped hero,his fight with the evil,obligatory heroine number one,the unavoidable heroine number two etc to name a few.

But sadly,the skillfulness of Chimbudevan in handling fantasy adventures is missing in Puli and the most anticipated Tollyood film of 2015 ended as a forgettable affair,being an epitome of mediocre film-making from all the departments. Chimbudevan is a film maker who have experimented well through path untraversed in Tollywood,may it be his debut movie 'Imsai Arasan 23aam Pulikesi' or the Raghava Lawrence starrer cowboy comedy 'Irumbukkottai Murattu Singam' which were interesting and well-received attempts by both the critics and the common audience.
