Thirupaachi was already an outdated action film. Guess what? Perarasu is reuniting with Vijay in Sivakasi. Well, I would say that Sivakasi is just a replication of Thirupaachi with a whole new cast and some changes in the story. It looks straight like another Vijay film in which heroism is the main interest factor. There's nothing original nor creative that brings down the interest of the audience. Sivakasi is filled with Vijay moments. We have him taking the full space and entertain the audience. His effortless performance is always a delight for his hardcore fans. There are moments for the family audience but other than the film is just a one-time watch. While having a strong star cast, Sivakasi is left without any strong supporting actors. Prakash Raj is collaborating with Vijay after Ghilli and unfortunately, their combination doesn't work much in this one because Prakash Raj has a role that is overshadowed by Vijay's hero glorification scenes. Comparing to Thirupaachi where I had at least one scene to cherish, I didn't get anything impressive or memorable in Sivakasi. The only thing that I get repeatedly is the same Vijay with a different name and background. Other than that, he is the same mass entertainer that we saw in Thirumalai and Thirupaachi. Overall, this mass action entertainer depends only on Vijay.
