Calling it an "engaging tale," Prakash Pecheti of Telangana Today wrote: "KV Guhan, who made his mark with his debut flick 118, yet again shows his skill as a storyteller with a screenplay that is taut." Praising the performances, reviewer from Sakshi Post said: "Arun Adith steals the show with his stellar performance in the film. Shivani Rajasekhar's charm lies in her innocent appearance and her impeccable performance which makes the film an endearing watch." The Times of India critic Thadhagath Pathi rated the film 2.5/5 and wrote, "WWW tries to be fresh in its attempt but it’s a major let-down. Director KV Guhan could’ve pulled off this one better." 123telugu.com stated: "WWW is a cybercrime thriller with a decent backdrop. However, logicless scenes, slow narration, and lack of depth in emotions take the film down in no time." Aithagoni Raju of Asianet News Network appreciated the novel attempt by Guhan but opined that the screenplay and pacing could've been better. A critic writing for Eenadu opined that barring a few good sequences, the film failed to impress. On contrary, News18 Telugu Kiran Kumar Thanjavur praised the film, direction and performances, calling it a "must-watch." References
