Singapore Saloon movie review

An excerpt from the Hindustan Times' Singapore Saloon review read, "The film lags at points and the protagonist seems to be morose throughout the film for some reason. Shouldn’t the film give the audience hope? Cut to the performances, RJ Balaji is good and convincing as the hairstylist but his character could have been better written by the director. We needed to see him work as a hairstylist and hone his skills, but Gokul completely misses that... director Gokul has tried to bring together too many elements in Singapore Saloon and this is, sadly, its downfall."
