The Smile Man

Don't waste your time watching this disappointment of a movie. Cringe drama moments trying to force a sentimental reaction from the viewers, subpar acting by all the cast that makes you feel it is scripted rather than being realistic, lame make-up for the deceased characters to show a smile that defies the laws of Biology (the teeth is shown shaped as a bracket rather than a C), a hero that gets an "orgasm" in crucial parts of the movie (referring to the senseless portrayal of a condition of Alzheimer's) and poor direction. Even if you do watch this movie, play it at 2x speed and you'd still understand everything.

Good movie. I like sarathkumar movies in tamil language. Good story. Everyone's acting is so wonderful. Not only as a fan of actor Sarathkumar but also as a fan of the Tamil film industry, I love this film very much. Everyone who acted in this film has played the roles given to them very elegantly and wonderfully.

"The Smile Man 2024 (Tamil) falls flat in engaging its audience, failing to evoke emotional connections with its characters. The thriller aspect, meant to send chills down the spine, barely manages to deliver.

The lead character's portrayal is contradictory, transitioning from a disciplined and honest cop in the past to a reckless, protocol-ignoring investigator in the present. The investigative officer's head is woefully underpowered, and the villain's character lacks depth, leaving audiences without a compelling backstory for their motivations.

The subplot involving the nurse character and her daughter feels forced and unrealistic. The action sequences are uninspiring, and the investigation is superficial, making the movie feel vague and unengaging.

However, there are some redeeming qualities. Sarathkumar delivers a stellar performance, bringing his character to life with his signature mannerisms. The music is passable, and the photography is impressive. The directors have done a decent job with the screenplay, but unfortunately, it's not enough to save the movie.

Overall, "The Smile Man 2024" is a poorly presented, boring drama masquerading as a thriller. Despite some notable performances, it fails to leave a lasting impact."

There was no story line in the movie. Should have been better. Not even an ott watch. Very dissatisfied after watching the movie. The movie could have been better. There was not even a hint of logic in the movie. There was no suspense even though it is said to be a thriller.

We are not criticizing the movie but definitely it could have been taken in a better manner such that it entertains the viewers and keeps them intact to the story line. For a movie to entertain the viewers , there must be slight of logic and suspense even though it is a fictional story.

That's it for my review and hope this helps.
