DD Returns (2023)
5/10
DD Returns proves directors can make jokes without adult content. Hmmm!
22 October 2023
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.
