Beautiful Disaster

Movie: Beautiful Disaster
Language: English
Media Partner: Amazon Prime
Source: Amazon Prime
DialR4Review RATED 8/10

CAUTION: This film lacks mind-blowing romance and intricate character development. If you anticipate such elements, you might find it disappointing. Instead, it offers a straightforward blend of passion and romance, presented in a feel-good manner. The storyline follows a familiar template, including a charming boyfriend, a dark backdrop, a supportive roommate sidekick, minor misunderstandings, and a heartwarming reunion or happy ending. While the screenplay may be predictable, it surprisingly manages to captivate the viewer until the very end. For a leisurely weekend night, this movie is a solid romantic choice. I highly recommend giving it a watch.

The murderer

DialR4Review RATED 8/10

Based on the trailer, we can tell that the movie is a satirical take on murder night, presented in an entertaining manner. The only drawback is that it feels a bit lengthy and loses its pace in the middle. The screenplay deserves the highest praise as it keeps the events engaging, adding layers of fun and detail from start to finish. All the actors perform admirably. The climax provides a convincing justification for all the murders, and the final twist adds an enjoyable element. Despite being full of blood, the film wisely avoids excessive gore. In conclusion, this is a must-watch movie.

DialR4Review RATED 8/10

Read the synopsis and I liked the trailer. Set it for weekend watch and it rally surprised me in all aspects. The story is decent, animation department is fine and one good conclusion. The originality in story and uniqueness in characters made this one as outstanding one. There is no lagging or boring moments, they made the sentiment and action blocks in proper intervals and made this one as racy entertainer. Nimona is quite a challenging character and they present it with out a cliche effect. Good movie to watch in big screen. Worth the watch.

DialR4Review RATED 8/10

After some time, the movie looks like Marvel one, than DC. The multiverse and the cameo from legacy suits well. Especially the last cameo is so awesome. Its not like other DC super hero movies, it took lot of fun and entertainment than stick to story and beating the villain. Put behind all the DC heroes images and just enjoy the popcorn entertainer. I am not much aware of DC/Marvel comics, just known these guys from movies only. This is definitely be the nice watch for the weekend, if you set your expectations right. Give a try.

DialR4Review RATED 6/10

The story is very good and opt for current situation. But the characters and the picturization is age old. The worst part is that it give very wrong impact on the working women. And still couldn't understand why the heroine need to be from Muslim family. The characters are not natural and they change their characters differently in different situation. Husband character is best example. Why he is silent and what he thinks in the interval block, god only knows.... Selvaragavan character was quite good in the beginning and interesting, he also changed after interval and become dead boring towards end. One time watchable, by ignoring all these things.

DialR4Review RATED 8/10

Very simple story and it is presented in full length feature film with solid entertainment and sentiments. Especially the heroine character, that is so lovely and so mature. Manikandan eased out the character and so good on this role. There is no lagging moment and the comic moments are spread throughout the movie. Even some sentiment scenes are sparkled with one liner. The climax portion of last 15 minutes are bit dragged and seen multiple times in Tamil movies. This one is definitely the Must watch and best choice to watch with family.

DialR4Review RATED 6/10

The movie starts very well and the cast was too good. The movie was lovely till the main characters retrun from the Kerala segment. I really enjoyed till this moment. After that movie flow and direction of story is good, but the characterisation become more complex. The characters lost their originality and become villain for a moment and become victim in another second. The biggest problem is, no one will behave like these lovers in the real life. No one will hide lover in the house and no one will argue/explain to police station in front of lover and wife. Dont know what is the reason the heroine forgive the hero in climax and all these kind of mistakes only came in my sight.... i didnt enjoy this one, may be this discomfort only for me. Give a try, you may like it...

DialR4Review RATED 4/10

Started to watch this movie on the big screen, especially for the Nira song and Sidharth's performance. However, it turned out to be a huge disappointment in every aspect and ended in laptop watch. I couldn't buy into Sidharth's portrayal of a middle-class struggler; his mannerisms and appearance didn't seem convincing. Adding to my disappointment was the love track, which I found to be utterly unimpressive. The final reunion scene between the lovers was particularly poorly executed, making it one of the worst I've seen in any movie. Additionally, the hero's sidekick was an irritating character that often made me want to skip ahead in the film. The comedy track was outdated, and even the terror villain ended up joining the comedy brigade, which didn't sit well with me. The international human trafficking mafia could be brought down with just a single car hit, and the hero's fight to retrieve the heroine felt like the icing on the cake of implausibility. If there's any upside, it's that you might find some good time pass moments while watching this movie with friends.

DialR4Review RATED 6/10

I began watching the movie with high hopes for thrilling Apocalypse moments and action sequences. The start of the movie was very promising, and I enjoyed the initial sequences. However, as the psychological aspect was introduced into the storyline, the movie shifted more towards a sentimental tone rather than an action-packed thriller. While the original version was enjoyable up until the climax, this one included many new enhancements to the alien invasion plot, which ultimately detracted from the overall presentation. As the movie progressed, the plot started to lose its depth, becoming highly predictable, leading to a great sense of disappointment. It's a movie that can easily be skipped.

DialR4Review RATED 8/10

The story and acting is not that much great and this is not classic one. But it has its own tickling funny bone and really worked out throughout the movie.... Keep your expectations for low brow comedy and you will enjoy this one for sure. The scene sequences are very simple, very few characters till climax and most of the scene in small apartment flat... with all these limitation they really make one simple fun family drama with all possible emotions.... I laughed out in lot of scenes and the climax moment is opt ending for this movie. Light hearted fun filled family drama, give one chance, you will not regret.

Felt bored and stretched in some places. I Thought Some sequences are added to fill the gaps. Once the movie reached the climax the complete perspective is changed. The beginning and end frames are so hard hitting ones. The movie flows in slow paced and how the police officers lives in the remote top of the mountain. The problems and incidents they face in the small place with limited conversation are captured nicely and n slow manner.. I really liked the way they present the scenes where beef issue and how he avoid the food in table with both brahmin and close friend. Towards end the story and characters become haunting one and add more grip to the story Dont miss it.

DialR4Review RATED 7/10

The movie has quite different and less travelled backdrop and characters are fresh for this story. First twenty minutes, it was very difficult to follow the movie, later its become slow burner and hooked to the murder investigation. The story flow and how it travel across different locations and revealing the different layers of the characters nicely. The climax is bit unexpected and looks more abrupt. The best part is that all the characters had the grey shade in this story but still good human being. Decent watch and tune for the slow narration.

Good road travel family drama with great cast and production values. They shoot in real location and its lovely. The story is wafer thin and they managed to hold attention till third episode... After that it deviates too much and too much of music and sentiments. Cant bear some of the episodes to watch. Then finally the last episode is the saviour. All the actors did their best and Lakshmi and Madhu are ultimate. There some real good one liners that makes this journey more lovely.... Give a try with some low expectations... one time watchable...

DialR4Review RATED 8/10

The director proved himself again that he can deliver social message in a commercial content. This time the commercial flavour is bit more, but still enjoyable one. The first half is 10/10, it racy, entertaining at the same time the screenplay is stick to the theme. The second half is quite manageable, but felt bit dragged. Even though the characters and approaching the politician is bit fresh, the predictability killed the entertainment. The climax scene is bit overdose of masala and still justifies to his cartoon story. The voice of imaginary character and how he handles the voice is awesome. The first half it was used for mostly for entertainment and the same is used for very good social message. Worth the watch.

The best thing about this movie is the story and the moral they spread throughout the movie. Towards the end of the movie, the moral hit hard on our face. Just for this impact, i am recommending this movie. That "kudukuduppai" wordings are fantastic and the title of the movie justifies. Superb story and below average scene sequences. Lot of scenes reminds of Serial type. The Movie starts and end very well, in between they made lot of silly mistakes in the making that disturbs the whole viewing. Adjust your expectations on the making and slow pace of the movie. Then definitely this would be a surprising affair. Recommended for one time watch.

DialR4Review RATED 6/10

Same as Mari's earlier venture, this also has impactful scenes and powerful characters. The problem is they are very few and too much of masala for Mar's standard. This is tailor made story for Udhayanidhi and Mari did lot of compromise for this purpose. The first half scenes are very impactful, at the same time they are very lengthy. Over this, they added slow motion sequences. Another let down is the antagonist characterisation. Fahad looks like 80s villain and all his sequences are highly predictable. Last but not least: Thevar magan Esakki character is much more genuine than this Maamannan.

DialR4Review RATED 5/10

With this cast and masala story, this could be the block buster one. But it failed miserably as a whole. Mainly because of the very poor narration and take the logic holes as granted, especially the dam fight and exhibition scenes. Surprisingly I can see the "Saroja" Venkat Prabu on the Mortuary van dialog sequence. He utilised full and full of Aravind Swamy and Keerthi in that scene. It was so lovable to watch that scene. But after that he failed to keep the track and confused between the mass heroism and entertainment.... Finally it become like a 80's masala movie and the art work helped much to make it look much worst....

The comedy and the one liners worked very well in this movie. This is good time pass movie to watch with family. Some of the scenes we were laughing loudly. They stretched the short story make it as a feature film and succeeded quite surprisingly on that. This is not perfect one, it has its own cliche moments and stretched sequences. But with fast forward options and OTT platform release, made this movie as a quite comfortable watch. Reduce your expectations and adjust your tone for the over acting and cliche moments, then it will really become enjoyable watch.
