Brutal

Vetrimaaran's Vetri ( Winning ) streak continues...Pros - Heart wrenching brutal cinema . Before getting into detail it's definitely not for light hearted . Viduthalai part1 plays a major role in setting up for part 2 . This time narration wise and making wise there was slight difference from Vetri's previous works . Part 1 explores the world of Viduthalai , Police brutality , separatist and politics . Narration was slow , but that doesn't means flat . Soori as protagonist gave a realistic show stealing performance . VJS had less screentime but created quite impact . Other cast did their part really well , they had enough scope throughout the movie , even GVM played his part neatly . Technical wise , impressive cinematography especially opening single shot sequence one of the best in kollywood , opening shot clearly established the tone of the movie . In a slow burner movie , Climax was total bang , action set pieces were well choreographed , excellently captured and edited . Ilaiyaraaja's back ground scores were well suited to this dark tone and periodic movie , songs were really great . Atlast part 2 glimpse literally increased the hype .Cons - Asusual dubbing was poor as expected , lip syncing were totally odd in most of the places . Editing in few places weren't upto the mark .Overall , a slow burning crime drama . Definitely worthy one for your patience and time . Highly recommended . Strictly 18+ .I hope Part 2 will be released as soon as possible .

Disturbing & Unsettling

I would say, this is not Vetrimaran's best. But it is still up there, in the top echelons of Thamizh movies.Acting was superlative across the board - Soori, VJS, Bhavani, and the host of characters that play the different parts in this movie. I couldnt think of anyone who did a lesser job. With VM around, its virtually impossible for an actor in movie to deliver less.Story is layered. There are many nuances, or two sides that compete to be right. But it screenplay and direction that makes all this come together beautifully. The movie was slow, purposefully because it it was meant to play on your mind. It was not dragging.Only thing about the songs, i wish Ilaiyaraja would control his exuberance to sing!!I also think VM made some compromises in some shots. The opening sequence was good, but could have been better. The art direction too could have been better here. But thru' the rest of the movie camera, sets etc were super.Cant wait for part-2... when the movie was ending, for a moment, i thought part-2 was going to start..... oh man.

Waiting for the part 2

Since it is the first part, many questions remain unanswered when the viewer finishes the movie. However, the way the movie poses these questions makes it worth watching. It delicately portrays the balance between the police and the People's Liberation Army, highlighting how marginalized communities and commoners are suppressed amidst the fight of two giants, emphasizing that war is not the solution.The best thing about this movie is that it is presented through the perspective of a low-level staff member, Kumarassen (played by Suri), who has a good heart but lacks the power to effect significant change himself. The film also provides glimpses of how things become murkier and more chaotic when an actual war breaks out. Setupati shines in his role as Comrade Perumal, and it's interesting to see his diverse choices of roles in movies like "Vikram Vedha," "Farzi," and this one."It's a raw movie with minimal aesthetics and a lot of bloodshed, but I believe it aims to reach the core of your being and show the fancy popcorn viewers or keyboard warriors how war actually unfolds and why ranting on Twitter is sometimes unjustified." Overall, it is a well-crafted movie, and I am definitely looking forward to the second part.
