It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

First of its kind Neuroscience based tamil movie with a very gripping screenplay. Each & every scene was intriguing & kept engadged throughout the film except a single pub song. Nothing felt like boring and I totally enjoyed the whole movie experience. This would've been a massive hit if the cast & music would've been good.

The murders happening in the city which had similar gestures, perplexed the Police authorities.Inspector Kumaran (Sundeep Kishan) who himself witnessed one of the 'near-live-murder' had trauma after that ,which got mixed with an accident occurred in his young age.The people who were murdered , Dr.Pramodh;a Scientist,his gym trainer,an actress,her makeup man and the rest to follow were part of some mysterious web whom the Police needs to sort out to solve the case. 'Maayavan',a variety murder mystery movie following the way of super-natural,sci-fi movie is an experimental attempt in Tamil cinema.Especially,considering it an Indian regional language movie,there were many chances for it to commit to the compromises.Instead,the emphasis is given to the story structure,which made it a good watch.The first half mainly concentrated on the character formation of Inspector Kumaran,his life and fears without giving any clue on what was happening around.Later,when the mystery was revealed,the story became fast-paced with thrilling sequences.The super-natural,sci-fi elements which formed the major part of the movie had chances to flaw in a big way.But the debutant C V Kumar,with his team was able to make-believe those scenes in a perfect way. Especially,the way in which the 2037 scene at the start which connected the dots towards the climax was worth to watch.The cameo from Jackie Shroff really made the climax a lot powerful than it would have been.Finalizando: If you love to read odd detective stories and eager to watch one on screen,here you have one to watch!!

Director does know what when dealing with the sci-fi elements and his version of future technology does holds its ground on probability factor. Excepts for the repetitive manner in which the movie tends to move once we know what is happening in the story, all other aspect of the movie are well made. Wish the director comes with more no nonsense sci-fi movies in tamil in future.
