DD Returns

Very good quality Horror Comedy. Stun us with many twists and turns. Make the entire theatre laughter with insult comedies and timing counters. Story, Screenplay, Characters, Dialogues well written. Hyperlink worked well in Hor-Com. Good BGM. All the characters have equal importance and everyone scored and shined well with their performance. Applause to all the actors. Used Santhanam Anna greatly as an intellectual hero as well as a crazy comedian. Wonderful set works and VFX. Lighting and camera work at their best. Fast Paced Screenplay. Standing Applause to the entire team. Strong Must Watch Theatre Material. Full Family Entertainment. Dillukku Dhuttu 3 - Do great at the box office. One of the blockbuster film of this year. Enjoy in Theatres!

This movie is hilarious. Unlike Santhanam's other movies this movie is actually funny. So many memorable characters and the way they all connect together is just really well made. The only thing that was not good was the cgi but let's be real, no one cares about cgi in these types of movie. Also unlike other comedy films or comedy/horror films of Kollywood, this movie has a story and the ending actually takes you to the edge of the seat. Apart from this, there is no adult jokes making it a very good film to watch with your family. Also yes DD Returns is Dhilluku Dhuddu 3 and this sequel is times better than either of the first 2 films.

I didn't know what to expect when I saw this on its day of release (in UK with English subtitles) with limited info out there, but I was in the mood for something a little light hearted and I like horror so this looked the part judging from the trailers.

I wasn't disappointed with lots of chuckles, some very ropey effects in places which didn't matter, chases, a myriad of characters we got to know in the first half and then into the haunted house for the second half of the film.

Strangely the trailers seem to ignore the first half of the film outside the haunted house which left me a bit confused but eventually we got to the creepy house.

In summary in the first half of the film there's a wedding that gets interrupted and we get to know several groups of people, some of whom plan to steal a load of money. This sets up themes around love, revenge, kidnap and greed and there's a lot of hilarity. It reminded me of old slapstick comedies with the loot passing from one group to another with various chases.

Eventually the various groups converge on the old haunted house and find themselves being forced to play 'Win or Run' to escape with their lives (and win the money) which is what the trailers focussed on, with more peril and hilarity.

Good escapist fun.

DD Returns, unlike its previous ventures, has an interesting screenplay. You have these good for nothing characters meeting at a certain point where the story unfolds. But for them to meet, it takes 40 minutes. In other words, the first forty minutes of the film was snooze fest. Editor N. B. Srikanth could have used his skills here or ofRo (music director) could have saved us with his talent.

Unfortunately both failed us. OfRo's skills shine in background score but is a pain factor in musical numbers. Srikanth's edit suffers from continuity errors - you have no idea how certain characters end up in certain places and you guess that either there is a whole in the screenplay or in the editing. Most probably the latter.

I would not like to rant any further. After the first forty minutes, the story becomes interesting. The gamification of haunting adds spice to the comedy and soon it is like watching a comedic video gameplay with a backstory.

The positive factors about DD returns are simple logic, segmented screenplay and mild comedy. They did not try too hard. They did not jump too far. Everything is alright, average, mediocre.

Awesome movie songs in the movie are boring but very good overall performance.

Though the graphics are bad it is a family movie. The wind forces open the curtained window. Candles snuff out in darkness. And a shiver cascades down your spine. Nope, it's not just your imagination. Something is stalking on your screen, primed to to kill all your free time: The big, boo-tiful list of Rotten Tomatoes' 200 Best Horror Movies of All Time!

The wonders of seeing the unknown has always been the luring temptation of movies, and so horror feels especially close to this medium, a genre that exposes audiences to beyond normal, and into death. So we're pulling from 100 years of movie history, from those early days of German expressionism (Nosferatu, The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari) and Universal monsters (Dracula, The Wolf Man). Creature features (King Kong, The Fly) nestle with Best Picture nominees (The Exorcist, Get Out). Slashers (Scream), zombies (Dawn of the Dead), vampires (Let the Right One In) abound with terror of the more psychological persuasion (Don't Look Now, The Innocents). Or so it would seem.

And we honor the recent stabs and strides made by female horror directors (A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night, The Babadook, The Invitation) and directors abroad (Under the Shadow, The Wailing). Each of these best scary movies thrown into our bubbling cauldron had to have at least 20 reviews with a Fresh rating, before being sorted by our ranking formula, which accounts for a movie's number of reviews and year of release.

New additions for this year's update include His House and Candyman, and classics like Dario Argento's Creepers creepin' in.
