UI The Movie X review: Netizens call Upendra's action drama a one-man show

Another Twitter user criticized the screenplay, commenting that its predictability made some scenes feel flat and lack impact.
Another review read, “uithemovie despite the predictable screenplay, one man holds the audience with his presence; the name is Upendra, & the trademark sarcasm of world politics; it's his signature & stamp overall… 1st half done.”

However, there are a few flat scenes and a partially predictable screenplay flow, which are the drawbacks. The movie introduces a new plot and is technically brilliant, with excellent visuals and background music. The opening 10 minutes and the interval block had some exciting moments that kept the audience engaged.”
