Director and actor SJ Suryah came back with a bang after a prolonged hiatus with the recently released Isai.

This movie, which he has directed and acted in also marked his debut as a music director. The movie, which released just a couple of days back, has been receiving great reviews and of the five movies released that weekend, Isai has been getting the most appreciations.

Critics are praising Sathyaraj's brillinat acting, well-written narration and climax. The drawback of the story is the duration of the movie which runs more than 3 hours, and many are complaining that the pace of the screenplay is slow at parts.

Now, we hear that the makers have trimmed the movie by 10 minutes to make it all the more appealing to the viewers. This crisp new version is also being well received by the fans.

Have you watched the movie yet? If not, read the critics review on tamilstudios and march on to a theatre near you to catch the movie.
