Diary

A good movie with nice twists.

The movie starts with ideal elements for a fantastic thriller plot. Travels like a horror movie and ends like a sentimental one.

Most of the movie happens in a bus and is related to a hairpin bend on the Ooty hills. Starts like a typical thriller with a death scene at the beginning. Several murder incidents happen on the same day. The director does a great job of building up things and deviates your attention from the main component of the movie.

There was a time when I was sitting confused. I didn't know how this movie is going to travel. I'm usually a person who is successful at guessing things. I was only able to realize what is happening like 20 minutes before the ending. Director manages to keep you thinking.

It might not be a must-watch movie but surely an enjoyable one. The budget constraints are showing up in some visuals. Arulnithi carries himself very well. He is becoming an impressive actor. I am starting like his scripts. The man has a great sense of what good writing is.

Overall, worth every minute of your time. If you're scared of horror movies (like me), don't worry. This one is not very scary.

A super engaging thriller that keeps you gripped till the end. Typical start with as investigation, bit lagged before the interval, took racily and engaging to the climax. The writing has been done intensely, best for the supernatural but could have done more or skipped the romance, jumpscares, and comedy parts. The emotions have been well done and loved the way he has connected everything. Though some scenes were predictable, the twist at the end was perfect, making us forget the flaws in the first half. Arulnithi's performance was top and the soundtrack was at its best, which made it intense in many scenes, yes the cinematography was good too. Color grading and Visual Effects could have been done more better. I loved the way Innasi Pandian made the script. Overall it's a good watch.

I like Arulnithi movies for his silent thriller acting... while other heroes are engaged with their commercial movies... Arulnithi always give silent yet superhit movies... That's Arulnithi's style which I like more... In diary one guy surprised me with his emotional acting... who literally made me cry in the climax scene...nobody can match mother's love,it has been beautiful portrayed in this movie... Hey Thanikai you did a great job man, Loved your acting... You have a great future ahead... I wish to see you in more and more movies ... Best wishes for all your upcoming projects - ur new fan.

Well written script and very well executed screenplay with perfect emotions. From beginning to the end you will feel the seat edge thriller moments.

Director doesn't reveal the plot until the climax its very different and we can't guess it.

Music and BGM was very apt and clear. Movie is visually chill and the plot is based in Ooty.

All the characters in the movie done their part very well. Even the comedy elements works well.

The Bus dues the main role in the movie. Really the camera angles and the VFX inside the bus was superb.

Totally very superb execution. Congrats to the team Diary. Actress pavitra does her part very well.

The core theme is really impressive one. They took more than enough time to introduce each character. Still it was so beneficial when the core theme get unfolded.

The horror factor and some scare moments are presented very well, especially the ticket checker sequences. Watch it with some good sound effect.

At the same time the movie looks more dragged and lost its narration on the love Jodi elope and marriage sequences. The entire bus sequence was awesome except this marriage flow.

Some of the fight sequences and songs could be easily avoided. The climax is bit over the top.
