Bloody Beggar

Kavin winning with his interesting script choices is lovely to see. This is a film that the OTT audiences will most likely lap up, given its minimalist premise utilized to decent effect. I won't say all the moving parts work, but how writer-director Sivabalan Muthukumar executes the dark+absurd humor elements warrants praise. Jen Martin's score is also wonderful, adding to the emotional side of the film (in an unexpected turn of events).

The survival thriller bits are fun, but the commentary on poverty, social strata, and abuse within the family, is explored to a deeper extent than expected. Redin Kingsley, whom I absolutely wanted to "DELETE" in Kanguva, frequently scores with his one-liners here. I suppose it's a matter of the filmmaker he finds himself working with. The other supporting performances are a mixed bag-some enjoyable, some not so much. "You're Next" and "Ready or Not" are obvious inspirations.

It was a good film, not bad but It could have been better. Kavin's acting was somewhat ok but not as expected. The family tree was difficult to connect with which made the film confusing. The movie was not having a strong story line yet it was a good 2hrs 19mins. Radha Ravi's cameo did not run for a long period of time but it had a huge impact in the film. Kingsley's acting is an all time blockbuster like we saw in Beast and doctor. The genre of the film is different than the films in today's date. Some scenes were boring and time waste. It is an average one time watch film. It is a good film but not a film that can run in the competition of diwali films. Overall out of 10, I would give this film 6.

Really I saw the movie after mixed reviews, but seriously the movie is something new that we haven't seen in tamil cinema before. It's like some esperimental Hollywood movie that get a huge support there. But in tamil cinema we don't encourage such new attempts. Here we always enjoy some repeated contents and caste politic stereotype based movies. I don't know what to say about tamil audience.

As a emerging star in tamil cinema, Kavin's script selection shows how he is clear to do versatile and different roles in his movies. His performance is enough to prove that he is definitely a promising star in kollywood.

Bloody beggar is a new and fresh movie that we should watch with family and friends in holiday time, as it has humour, thrilling, sentiment factors.

If it weren't for Redin, there was nothing to watch in this movie.

Sadly directors are not able to deliver content that holds audiences attention. Else you could have done comedy. Both "dark thrills" and "comedy" takes a back seat in this movie.

Fortunately Redin redeems it for us. His bits seem timed well and worked. But everything else was dull. The starting is so boring that I almost dozed off. The hero's acting skills appear very limited, and if he doesn't choose scripts wisely, it's going to be bummer for him and the film. This movie had some potential in the script, but lacklustre acting all round.

"Bloody Beggar" is an underrated gem in Tamil cinema, a genre that's rarely explored. I initially watched it on OTT because I wasn't impressed by the poor trailer, which made me expect another disaster like "Nai Shekar." However, I was completely surprised by the screenplay and its clever twists. Though the film starts off slowly, I was drawn in by the lack of unnecessary romance, glamour, or songs-something that's all too common in mainstream cinema. I really appreciate how the director brought us a dark comedy infused with emotional depth.

The performances were fantastic, with not just Kavin and Redin, but the entire cast and crew doing an excellent job. If you're someone who's tired of the usual masala movies and wants to see something fresh with the same ingredients but a new flavor, this is a must-watch. I give it a solid 10 out of 10.
