Plot:
We have seen gangster movie and police movies, but
VikramVedha is both worlds in one. The movie unravels through Vikram who is a
police officer and head of covet unit which was formed to bring down a mob run
by Vedha.
The movie starts with a police encounter lead by Vikram and
his colleague Simon with their team on the building which was tipped by an
informant which could possibly give information about Vedha.
Every goon gets killed in the encounter. But soon after it,
Vedha surfaces from his cover.
As the police plan to raid the place; to their surprise
Vedha himself surrenders to them.
The interrogation was a total failure until Vikram steps in
and all Vedha wanted was to tell him a story about himself and nothing else. This was judge things not as a police officer
but from his point of view. Half heartedly Vikram finally listens to what Vedha
wants to say and there starts the story of how a henchman become gangster to
what he is now.
The movie is not just a flash back of Vedha’s life, but of
relationship, revenge and brotherhood. The story telling way of the movie is
something different that we had seen in the past. Vedha reveals three stories
in different times of the films which connect all the dots in the movie.
The film has all the charm of a police movie and the furiousness
of a gangster movie. With all action, drama and love it has the perfect blend
of commercial cinema.
Like all the new generation films; VikramVedha also has many twists and
turns that prove that our guesses were all wrong at the end.
What to watch for; is the plot and the performances from
Vijay Sethupathi and Madhavan. Vijay Sethupathi is at his best and should have
a big round of applause for his character transform in the film which is splendid
to watch.
Other positive factor of the film is its finely blended BGM
which keeps on ringing on our ears even after the movie is over.
To conclude Vikram Vedha is a very good entertainer and is a
must watch for all movie goers.
