Aananda Vikatan, the most popular Tamil magazine, has given a highly positive feedback (50/100). Many things like cast, dialogue etc. were highly appreciated.The review also quoted that black-humour is very rare in Tamil cinema and the director was appreciated specially for his attempt.

Times of India wrote: " With snappy visuals, hyper-kinetic editing, this is a dark comedy influenced by world cinema while still being rooted to local values".

Rediff wrote: "Comedy and satire are beautifully interwoven in Moodar Koodam with excellent support from all the cast. The only negative in the film is the number of characters and incidents incorporated into the film, creating an overdose of everything".

Behindwoods wrote: "As a director, Naveen is able to extract what he wants for his story barring some of the hostage sequences that feel like stage dramas. The film has its best moments when the action moves outside the house, like the several back-stories and the North Chennai episodes".

Baradwaj Rangan writing for The Hindu: "A genuinely scripted comedy, there are moments that are genuinely funny. His next film will be awaited with much interest."
