I am not a good reviewer to review such a world class movie... I am just sharing my feeling....No words !!!.... I don't know what, I feel restless, weary, agonized, grieved, hostile, lousy, pessimistic, pathetic, rebellious... I don't know what kind of feeling is this.... I am amazed how can a movie makes you feel like this? I was crying, shivering and I dint sleep the whole night after seeing this movie and it took more time for me to come out of this..... This s not a 3D or 5D movie to show u a visual reality, but it is some thing more than that, which drags u in and makes u to travel with those 4 boys.... 'A complete movie'

Vetrimaaran deserves allocates for having given the best from the team. The extent of enduring pain is as plain as water as they stutter and fumble with their bloody bruised bodies. The hard- riviting screenplay is unstoppable, making no move to shield you from the bitter realities of the merciless world. cameraman S Ramalingam perfectly complements the script by depicting the pain, torture and humiliation while GV Prakash's haunting background score makes it happen like real, The sound of flesh being torn apart by brutal lathi blows will make one finch and even experience it. The story portrays as how innocents are often brought in to fill cases which cant be solved. The extent of torture they undergo to make them underwrite the crime they have never committed is painful and morally awakening. The film brings out how gruesome our criminal justice system is, and the lack of transparency, access to judicial services and no signs of accountability at the cutting edge level is making the common man suffer more every day. It is not to say that all police functions are gruesome. But the movie brings up how the dark side can be and how dangerous it can be to the life of a common man when the power is uncontrolled.I sincerely hope that lockup deaths and police encounters will no longer be mere flash news after watching this movie, as the film sends across a spine chilling message which needs every ones attention.

There comes a movie like Whiplash once in a while where there is lot of action primarily due to intensity of performances and absorbing screenplay. Then there are movies like Haider where the movie atmosphere is dense and disturbing that you are left cold and horrified at the very end. Visaranai is a movie that has successfully blended both these aspects in order to present a practical, rational view of the system that is part of our livelihood. I cannot remember the last time I watched such an intense, nerve chilling, baffling movie in Thamizh.As I have now noticed, Vetrimaran's films have two different halves but which are part of the same story. In Polladhavan, we see the happy, everyday youth Dhanush living a jolly good life in the first half while in the second, things take a sudden turn and he gets exposed to a world of ruthless criminals. In Aadukalam, we see Dhanush's involvement in the rivalry between 2 rival gangs in the first half, while in the latter we turn audience to how one man's greed changes his surrounding people's lives. Similarly in Visaranai, as the title suggests we are presented with 2 separate interrogations with different scenarios in both halves of the movie. The movie attempts at one thing as beautifully explained by Kishore in one scene - The system is the boss and we are just pawns playing a game in it. The powerful always prey on the powerless and there is no way that one who has been nabbed in the web escape out from it. This is explained through layers of tightly scripted scenes with lots of crude violence, not to a forced extent of skipping the movie but watching it as if the horror where happening in front of your eyes. Few minutes into the movie the story starts unraveling and you start feeling a slight chilling fear which later keeps intensifying exponentially until the very end where you are left distraught. The range of emotions portrayed by the variety of villains torturing the innocents affect you up to a level that you start trembling as if watching a horror movie. Off late we have been seeing great improvements in movies like Thani Oruvan where a lone hero fights corrupt, antisocial elements in the society and this one breaks all those clichés to state a point that the system cannot be won over. I was particularly reminded of the Brazilian film duology 'Tropa De Elite' where the story ends with an unstated "moral" that criminals, politicians and police are of the same circle and you end up on the losing side if you mess with them.Performance wise, Dinesh continues with an impressive tough role which might prove as a highlight in his career. I somehow feel convinced that Samuthirakani must be considered the real protagonist as his role portrays how a honest person becomes prey to the system and is left torn without options at the crux. The music, camera and editing cuts add more intense chill to the atmosphere. Special mention to Dhanush for continuing to surprise us by producing such top class movies. It is highly unlikely that any other Thamizh movie can beat the class of this in 2016!Vetrimaran sir, you are not a director now but a visionary. This is not a movie but a well learned and constructed, flawless piece of art about the society. Feeling proud of you and the growth in your class of movies. Take some more national and international awards! I would have been glad if I could rate 12/10 for this movie!

One week after Iridhi Suttru here comes another Novel film Visaranai known as 'interrogation' in film festival's. I always like novel to screenplay converted films where the screenplay writer exactly knows the depth of the story. It is one gem of a film in Indian cinema which must be appreciated for its originality and the realism and brutality(FYI, I am big fan of brutality) Excellent screenplay, Just what the directed wanted acting and polite background music makes the film pleasant to want.Saving the rest for the best. This film is must watch for its social message it wanted to convey. The film brings a huge debate to the public forum,
