One X user wrote in Hindi, "Dekho zyada gyaan hum denge nahi, series ke fan ho toh jaldi jaake dekh lo. Maza aana confirm maaniye." (Look, I won't give you too much advice. If you're a fan of the series, go and watch it soon. Confirmed, you will enjoy)

Another X user wrote, "A BLOCKBUSTER. Nothing can stop this mental madness at the Box Office. The climax and the buildup is excellent & Shoorveer song in BG made it look so damn good. An unexpected tale with an outstanding post-credit scene, that Saanson Ki Mala."

One more user praised the film for the immense entertainment it provided on the big screen. It also emphasised the outstanding performances of Pankaj Tripathi and Ravi Kishan. The review read, "Mirzapur: The Movie doesn’t miss a beat when it comes to entertainment. Pankaj tripathi mass, Ravi Kishan’s entry as Babbua Yadav instantly breathes new life into the story, adding the punch and energy the narrative needed. #Mirzapur."

One moviegoer lauded the movie and powerful storytelling, calling it a worthy big-screen adaptation of the popular series. The review read, "PEAK MASS ENTERTAINER... The iconic web series gets a big-screen upgrade – and the result is a roaring, ruthless, razor-sharp entertainer that works big time... SURE-SHOT HIT. #MirzapurTheMovieReview."

It further continued, "This is IMPORTANT... #MirzapurTheMovie doesn't feel like a stretched-out episode of the series... IT FEELS LIKE A FILM – larger, louder, and far more cinematic, while retaining the raw flavour, attitude, and spirit that made the web series a phenomenon."

One X user praised the film’s first half and highlighted Ravi Kishan’s casting, writing, "That first half was already fire, but the casting of Lord Ravi Kishan takes it to another level."

Another X user jotted a review which read, "#MirzapurTheMovie is a decent one that doesn't deliver something big or dissapoint you. But makes you want more from the #Mirzapur world."

It further continued, "1st half was good. The 2nd half was a bit disappointing. That climax could've been handled better because it had potential to give 2x high."

One die-hard Mirzapur fan shared their excitement about the franchise, writing, "I’ve watched all the seasons of #Mirzapur and honestly, I’m a huge fan of the series. Now watching #MirzapurTheMovie. Really excited to see how it feels on the big screen. Let’s go!"

Praising the film as a complete entertainer, one X user wrote, "Done with #MirzapurTheMovie. What an entertainer. Full Review in a while."

It further added, "Also, the #Mahakali first glimpse looks POWERFUL on the big screens. Yes, it was played before the film. And the response was very good. We are in for a huge surprise in January 2027. And Congrats to Mirzapur makers. The Hindi heartland needed this one. "

Another user wrote a review highlighting Kishan’s esteemed performance. It read, “Politics, Webseries, Movies, Memes... Ravi Kishan is a legend."
