DD Next Level

This film is a masterclass in aimlessness, offering neither compelling storytelling nor so-bad-it's-good charm. The pacing is glacial, the characters are hollow, and any attempts at humor fall painfully flat. Even as a guilty pleasure, it fails; there's no ironic enjoyment to be found, just a numbing sense of boredom.

The director seems to have mistaken meandering for depth, leaving the audience stranded in a cinematic void where nothing of consequence happens. Scenes drag on without payoff, dialogue feels like placeholder text, and the climax (if you can call it that) lands with a shrug. Rip.

DD never misses!!!!!!

Horror elements little bit turned up compared to the previous film in the franchise.

Even though the comedian Santa is the peak, he never got lost in his films as a hero. He never missed the comedic timings in his films even as a hero.

He tried many different slangs in each and every film but he always scores and thats why he is permanently goated.

Comeback of Motta Rajendran after a long time and the legend nailed it.

Look at the effort he put on for a little funny sequence while being 68 years old.

Amazing film. Amazing ensemble. Innovative plot. Peak fun. Full-on entertainment. Wholesome.

Unique film about cinema.

This film has everything for its title to be " The Movie Critic ".

#4 in the film series, DD Next Level, excels on every level! One might be tempted to think, here is a movie that will be a pleasant break from the other crime and violence films, and yet DD Next level does include a fair amount of violent scenes. It is a send up of horror and slasher movies, and it also pokes fun of movies in general. It is actually a movie within a movie. Similarities of characters in the real world jumping into a world of fantasy have been utilized in such classics as, The Wizard of Oz, and Tron. The horrific aspects here are done surprisingly well(will satisfy all horror fans), and the comedy never lets up. The entire (large) cast are a joy to watch. Add to that the superb music soundtrack and you have a movie well worth seeing! Comedy films need to be made more frequently, and this one will get the ball rolling. Of note is the ending which is very unusual and may be unique in this genre. The only change one might make is to shorten the running time a little in order to make room for a song and dance number.

#DDNextLevel is a fantasy horror comedy that cleverly explores cinema, movie reviewers, and film critique. The screenplay is structured with three intricate layers-a movie within a movie, a flashback within that, and within one layer, three distinct chapters. The approach is commendable for introducing fresh concepts to the 'Dhillukku Duddu' franchise while completely steering away from insult-based (body shaming) comedy.

Instead, the film effectively embraces sarcastic humor, expressive body language, and slapstick comedy, which lands well in many instances. Santhanam bro subtly tweaks his signature timing and body language, delivering a solid performance. The supporting cast, too, delivers their best. Technically, the film is well-crafted, though excluding the 'Govinda Govinda' song feels like a drawback, as it encapsulates the essence of the movie's plot concisely.

A great effort overall-the film resonates strongly with cinema enthusiasts, who will find its use of industry-specific terms engaging and intriguing. However, the general audience may struggle slightly to grasp the layered narrative, making it an average watch for them. Nevertheless, it successfully entertains everyone, especially kids, with laugh-out-loud moments. Kudos to the entire team.

Looking forward to more exciting films under this franchise! 'Dhillukku Duddu' is truly a signature brand for Santhanam Anna.

Even the makers of this film would rate it 1/10 after watching it. Tye storyline seems to be inspired from a 2 year old child folk. Acting is pathetic. One guy keeps saying 'Bro' 4 times in every dialogue which is irritating. Non sense story and acting. The writer and the director seems to be from high school.

You'll find a random YouTube documentary amd some random YouTube horror story better than this film. One should not have the courage to release these kind of films in theatre. Instagram reels and YouTube shorts have betyer contente than this film for real.

Appealing the makers please withdraw this film.
