The cat-and-mouse games [Mahesh Babu and SJ Surya] play keep us engrossed enough in the first half... but the film itself starts to slide and wobble.

Rated: 2.5/5

Spyder starts off well but the director's imagination goes overboard, only to turn a purpose-ridden plot to a piece of travesty.

Murugadoss' writing doesn't manage to give you the chills or thrills the promos promised.

The Times of India

What should have been an edge-of-the-seat cat-and-mouse game between good and evil turns into a movie that cannot decide between wanting to be a crackling thriller and an anything-goes masala movie.

Rated: 2/5

Despite its polished camerawork and slick production design, Spyder cannot claim the sophistication in thought of the movies from which it has been inspired.

Spyder is not great but it's definitely watchable for Mahesh Babu, Suryah and the touching humanistic angle.

This movie has unnecessary fights and a vague plot. The first half of the movie is mediocre, but the second half is terrible. The director and screenwriter of the movie get a 1/5 rating for this tasteless movie.

I like Mahesh Babu's movies but this one's a big bummer. A. R. Murgadoss failed to impress this time. It's a little disappointing that with a talented and well-reputed actor, the director failed to catch the audience's pulse.

SJ Suryah is terrific but post-interval plausibility takes a backseat.
