118 Movie Review:
Kalyan Ram as a journalist did his best. He lived in the character as a confused and frustrated person regarding the terrific dream he always gets. Nivetha Thomas and Shalini Pandey performed well. Nivetha Thomas got a meaty role. Though the flashback of this actress is routine, she tried her level best to give the best output.
Director Guhan who tried to maintain the suspense succeeded partially as he has given more hints in the form of clues. Production values are good. The cinematography is at its best. Editing could be better.
