    Bleak tale of virtual voyeurism

    Lens is a solid psychological thriller which delves into the cynical and twisted realm of human nature. It can be termed as a modern parable for the contemporary tech-savvy generation. It poses some seriously profound questions.

    Being a compelling allegory about privacy intrusion, it works on various levels. The screenplay is razor-sharp and doesn't even afford you to blink. Acting is splendid. The direction is marvellous. What makes this movie so exciting and relevant is the important issues it arises. The film deals with the themes of Privacy encroachment, voyeurism, retaliation, moral deviance, ethical dissipation etc. And while addressing these issues, the film never feels preachy.

    It is an excellent tale about the inherent demons in all of us. Today everybody sequesters his/her inner demons with everyone but that doesn't mean that that demon has perished. It still exists deep inside you waiting for a sound chance to come out. Isolating yourself from the real world and submerging into the virtual world is never going to help. It even intensifies the trouble.

    The story is about the very same innate fiend and what happens if it unleashes.

    Overall, a compelling thriller which should be watched by everyone because it carries a very ingenious and heartfelt life lesson. Superb!!!

    Disturbing narration of privacy breach

    This movie really kept on the edge all the time. Realistic cinematography and acting keeps the movie flowing. Director Jayaprakash has done really great job on stacking present and past just at right place. Movie is very much realistic and shows what something fun for someone can destroy another person's world.

    A brilliant to the point thriller that makes your daily living questionable

    LENS is the most daring movie in Tamil you might see in years to come which exposes something you cannot explain but it gets into your nerves and makes you cringe and feel uncomfortable.... A pure thriller (gets into your spine) on voyeurism and so boldly portrayed with just 4 characters and 2 rooms. Jayaprakash Radhakrishnan has done a brilliant job and has joined some amazing debutante directors who have bloody impressed in their scripts.. DO NOT WATCH IF U FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE about this topic

    Khan Review - proud on modiji

    Only in India such great movies are madding after modiji coming inside India. This movie teached how in today world private of peoples uploading in internet and how family falling destroyed. Very good movie about couples video uploading on internet destroyed their family life for all time. People watching video but not knowing that how unhappy this became of peoples everybody watching. It give historic messaging how today all careful chatting on internet because dont know who is the person secret talking with us. After some days black mailed and telling give money. Every Indian watch this good movie.

    Molecule Review: Lens (7 Stars)

    Lens is a film that practically needs a lot more polishing in terms of performances, direction, and continuity. But from a theoretical point of view, it hits the nail throughout, holding up a mirror to our society where obscene MMS clips are the talk of the town. Quite uncomfortable to watch, Lens takes you on an arresting journey with the main character who unknowingly gets entangled in a mess over his chatroom practices. As haunting as the tale is, I'm sure it is going to make you think for a few days about your own consumption of pornography whether you want to go that road or not. TN.
