According to experts, director Jayasuriya has not made a bad movie in "Angel John". However the movie failed to bring in audiences because of its inappropriate timing of release. The movie was released when the mega movie "Pazhassi Raja" released and the crowd was all attracted to that one. The result is that "Angel John" has crashed at the box office and seems to have been declared a holdover from day five at many centers. The Mohanlal starrer had created lots of expectations as well but failed to deliver. No Mohanlal film in recent times has taken such a poor opening. The film on its second day fell flat, and in some smaller stations was 'Hold Over' (trade term for not getting the minimum required gross collection. Many feels sorry for the director Jayasuriya who has not made a bad film, but couldn't save it from a release at the most inappropriate time. With the big list of films that are to grace theatres next week, ‘Angel John’ with its present state of collections will clear off the major centres in a maximum of three weeks. The movie is one of the biggest ever failures from Mohanlal in recent times, only after to ‘Photographer’, which came out a couple of years ago.
