Vellai Pookal

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

A different plot in a crime thriller, movie has 2 stories which is neatly merged without separating them, this is a new approach. Bit of over acting from Vivek and Charlie is boring at times and rest of the cast is just average. A good BGM and better screenplay and editing would have made this movie a super good thriller but it turned out to a average one.

Suspense from 1st minute to last minute which gives applause to the director.

Vivek's acting is extraordinary.

Donot miss this film.

This movie has the most essential features for a thriller. 1. Top down cinematography inline with the lead 's character 2. Parallel unfolding 3. A father/cop who's different from normal ppl 4. Unexpected twist and concealed motive It's more than enough for a thriller. I agree actors are new and director is new but still its a good thriller

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...
