Jayaprakash Radhakrishnan had just made a brilliant film and we can say that Lens is one of the best thrillers released here in Mollywood recently. The screenplay is fabulous and it follows the path of a Psycho thriller at many places. The narration of the plot is in such a way that it will hold you at the edge of your seats till the very end of the movie. There are no songs in this movie which actually helped the cause as the film did not lag at any parts. Cinematography was very good and it really enhanced the effect of the movie on the spectator. Background scoring was also nice and editing could have been better. The director had followed a completely different path to narrate the plot and he told it by breaking all conventional rules in cinema, through which thrillers had been told before. The sound design of the movie has been fantastic as well.

Director Jayaprakash himself played the lead character named Aravind and he had done a very good job as an actor as well. Many new faces had acted in it and no one let the film down as all of then gave decent performances. Specially, the actor who had played the character named Yohan had done exceedingly well.

Lens is a film that will give you a haunting feel and a thrilling experience. At the same time it gives a message to our society and young generation particularly. The internet addict or porn addict young men in our society making things worse for them and the whole society. This film tells us about the traps that are waiting for us in digital media and also how it makes us fell in those traps even if we think that we are protected from it. Lens is a small film, but it has something big in it and never miss it.
