A private detective ends up unraveling a large conspiracy while investigating the disappearance of a child's pet dog. Mysterious deaths happens continuously, at the same time a private detective is waiting for an interesting case. A kid asks the detective to find the murderer of his dog, then he collects clues which are interrelated with the dog's murder. Is the mystery solved by the detective ? Thupparivaalan, story of an adventurous unconventional bachelor with an acquired taste at deduction and solving challenged cases.<br/><br/>A detective story set in a peculiar little universe to solve the mystery of the cases. Characterization was very good, even the small characters are very much connected to the story. Movie becomes interesting over a period of time with the action thrilling and suspenseful scenes. Antagonist becomes head to head with the detective (protagonist) with always one step ahead, which gives a distinct touch of a mind game.<br/><br/>Thupparivaalan is another solid aesthetic thriller from Mysskin. But what sets this movie apart from other action thrillers is how it not only thrills us, but also makes us feel. Director Mysskin made history of sorts in 2007 when "Anjathe" came out during the heyday of Valentine's Day, Cut to the present 2017, Mysskin joining hands with Vishal for Thupparivalan (Detective) was a news which stifled me. Anyway it would be right to mention that cinema enthusiasts need to thank Myskkin for those bold initiatives in making Tamil cinema an attainable dream for countless young new wave cinema filmmakers.<br/><br/>So keeping aside the Hero Vishal I knew for the fact that Actor Vishal will be seen in the run time and the reason being its Mysskin's Film. I watched the movie on the first day as I do for all the Mysskin films except Chithiram Pesuthadi. Well I'd say Thupparivalan is neither Mysskin film nor Vishal film, it is a film which is possessed with content, depth and form. <br/><br/>Actor Vishal playing Kaniyan Poongundran has given his best in his filmography, he appears credible as a detective who doesn't hesitate to use force in order to accomplish some true to life spellbinding action scenes. Parallelly he is a seeker and the overall mood of the film is eeyorish despite few minor dose of profane humor.from the sidekicks be it villains or the supporting artists. Reason I state this is the previous Mysskin outings was supported with fascinating writing for the supporting artist which will leave a mark and some of them still do. Well Thupparivalan fails to score big with supporting artists. This doesn't prove that this flick isn't worth a shot it is a film which blends perfectly with constructive and meaningful cinema as it should be. <br/><br/>Oh, almost forgot to say a couple of words on the background score of the movie, the entire film is loaded and loaded with real ammo like score which speaks more with the mystery surrounding in the mind of Mano(Prasanna) who is just looking for nods while the protagonist is seeking to connect all the dots with amazing visual framing that heightens the adventurous movie-watcher.Good to see cinema like this today when our weekly releases have been flip-flop chicken flicks- blockbusters.
