My take on Vikram -
1st half - An engaging Investigative crime thriller drama
2nd half - A fully pumped up action thriller
Vikram was a pure labor of passion and a 100% directorial venture of Lokesh so far in his filmography. I loved "Kaithi" movie but when I compare it with Vikram the daughter sentiment portion that Kaithi had was taking a bit more space or like mellowing down the screen play where as in Vikram we see a husband trying to save his wife , a grand father trying to save his grand son, drug lord trying to save his empire but these where handled with a subtle note such a way it didn't spoil the thriller that was unfolding in front of us. Some brilliant screen play out here.
There were moments in the film which audience were so invested and engrossed clapping their ways as the story unfolds.
Every Technical aspect fell in place perfectly for this movie. There wasn't anything that was underwhelming for me throughout the crazy ride.
For me I found this movie thoroughly engaging start to finish with the stellar cast including three mammoths of south cinematic talents whose craft speaks for itself.
Ok Surya was supposed to be a surprise but boom as the spoilers went out in advance before the movie git released his character appearing wasn't having that wow factor but nevertheless he gives us a promising glimpse of the next season.
Can't wait for the next instalment to see what's there in Lokesh's vision.
