Vellaipookal

You may feel a bit dragged in the beginning but the movie picks up pace in the 2nd half leading to unexpected climax

Since past couple of years Tamil cinema has produced some worth watching crime Thriller's like D16,Ratchasan,Managaram,8 thottakal and vellai pokkal easily falls in same category...

Vikek is prominently known as comedy actor but here perfectly nails as High functioning retired cop.

Apart from cast performance and technical aspects (camera work,Bgm) writing is so good (Writers Try their best to avoid usual Tamil cinema cliché ness) Even first act is much about father- son relationship drama,after that film picks up it's pace and turns into a interesting investigate Thriller...

Non - Linear narrative is another highlight of this film.actual events happens in two different timelines,it makes Screenplay less predictable too...

Not just a usual crime thriller, the movie got a solid history that every thriller subject should have. I wasn't stared watching curiously, but the perfect ruler script got me into its loop. So standard till the end at some scenes i realized so much things haven't been copied from Hollywood and writer really digged well with the pen.

So surprised and honour to have a decent, peculiar film in Tamil cinema industry. The Cast indians+ westerners they nailed it

The story was extraordinary and had a bunch of small brilliant moments. It was a daring attempt to cast Vivek as most audience could not have related him to a serious role. It could have been a made a masterclass status if not for subpar acting and seemingly visible editing flaws. It lacked a flow from beginning till the climax but the climax made up for all the mistakes made. The ending was a bit abrupt and didn't tell what would have happened to the characters after the incident.

Very intriguing clot. The parallel, story is good too. Totally unexpected. Vivek's acting is good too. Cinematography sucks like hell. Others acting too, not worth watching.
