No universal grading system exists, but you can use this heuristic:
| Grade | Meaning | |-------|---------| | A | Masterpiece; strong festival run + unanimous critic praise + cultural impact | | B | Very good; flawed but ambitious; recommended for serious viewers | | C | Interesting concept but weak execution; for completists | | D | Fails as independent cinema (poor sound, acting, or pretentious without substance) |

Tamil indie filmmakers are exploring genres historically considered "risky" in mainstream cinema:
Tamil indie films are hyper-local. A reviewer from outside the culture might miss the subtext of a specific dialect or a caste marker (like a specific surname or a type of lungi).
Many publications use star ratings (3/5, 4/5). For independent cinema, a numeric grade is tricky.
There is often a disparity between "Grade" ratings given by critics versus audiences.
