Yaamirukka Bayamey (2014) User Reviews

Confused whether to laugh or fear..

[mohd-firdous1995 · 8/10 · 19 May 2014]

I expected much before watching the movie, but the movie was more than my expectations. The debutant director, Deekay has much talent and he used humour in the right way in a horror movie.

Kiran (Krishna) lands in trouble by getting debts and causing a problem to a rowdy's son. He receives a letter from his original father, and gets to know that his father has left him a property. Kiran goes to that village with his girlfriend (Rupa) and runs a hotel in his father's bungalow.

They runs the hotel with Sharath (Karunakaran) as manager and Saranya (Oviya) (Sharath's sister) as cook. Customers starts coming and they die before the sunrise. Things turn more worse when Kiran finds out the mystery behind the bungalow.

I loved the flashback, it has a good song and I felt something different about the flashback. The flashback tells why the bungalow kills everybody.

The whole movie was a fun and horror ride. It does'nt have any unnecessary songs. The 80% of the movie is in the bungalow. And its not a very lengthy movie.

I started loving tamil cinema. :)

Horror movie in which u will laugh the most !

[SatiagoManez · 8/10 · 19 June 2014]

We have few Tamil movies in the recent past that is in the blend of genres horror and humor. And this movie is definitely of improved quality. The music supports the genre switches very nicely. Horror when horror is needed followed by the immediate humor. The film is highly trimmed and doesn't have much unwanted scenes but the song in the flash back doesn't look much necessary, and the performance of Aadhav Kannadasan (flash back lead actor) is not good particularly the dialogue delivery looks very artificial, distracting and doesn't stick to the ongoing movie stream. Not sure if that was intended. One more to the negatives that we can point about the double meaning dialogues which doesn't add much to the comedy either as the humor in script itself was good enough. A neutral viewer will be surprisingly satisfied more than what ever they expected :)

Remake with good flavour

This movie is a remake of "the quiet family" a Korean movie .. but the essence of Tamil cinema been added with few alterations..makes us laugh as well as fear ...

Two thumbs and two toes up

[raj040492 · 9/10 · 10 May 2014]

A newly inherited property-turned-hotel brings in all sort of trouble wherein every guest who rents dies before sunrise.

"Yaamiruka Bayamey" is loosely based on a Korean movie with the same premise. Nonetheless it performs exceedingly well and is worth the time and money.

Kiran is a happy-go-lucky cum good-for-nothing teenager who barely survives each day with a girlfriend of equal qualities. When fortune bangs on their door they quickly grasp it only to realise later that there is more to their good fortune than meets the eye.

Their newly acquired property is renovated into a resort with a manager and his sister to help them run the business. But when the first guests arrive, the problem starts and gets worse with each passing moon.

The success of this project lies in the way it had intelligently blended horror and humour, the two most contrasting qualities that can be brought on screen. Still, the screenplay has done a fine job to give you a stomach ache via laughter. The laughter quotient is so huge that even when the horror elements arrive, you are still laughing because of the preceding joke.

Given the fact, the film is shot almost in its entirety inside a guest house, it is appreciable that there are no loose or uncanny moments. We are kept deep within our seats laughing at every possible joke the movie can offer.

With no heroism, no unnecessary songs, it's movies like these that gives me the confidence that the future of Tamil cinema is in safe hands.

Second half makes up for the first

[prakashforshopping · 6/10 · 31 May 2014]

First, let me state that I wont give any points for acting talent here. A better cast would have made the movie much better.

The first half of the movie contains some pretty cheap comedy scenes and in fact made me regret my decision to watch this movie. The part where they start the hotel had a lot of scope for introducing some great humour and more so for the scenes wherein the guests troop in. But what we get is some really unimaginative stuff.

It is towards the end of the first half that the movie comes into its elements with some genuine laughs coming through. The film comes alive in the second half and gets better with each passing scene. The horror scenes are spoofed from movies like the 'Women in black' and it is laced well with humour. The fake diviner, the mysterious old man all add to the laughs.

The movie could have been much better and does not deserve the high ratings given here but overall it provides good entertainment, with the second half being the saving grace.

One of the best combination of horror and comedy in Tamil

[kishore-baluma · 9/10 · 26 May 2014]

One can only say "Well done" after watching the movie. Often these days, it is always about love, action and lots of heroism with pathetic double meaning comedies in Tamil movies but this has exceeded utter expectation of many movie fans. Though not much hype or fuzz on marketing for this movie, it has gone places to encourage public to see this movie and most importantly in theaters.

Each role has been played with good importance and there is hardly any scenes which was worth not needed except the first song. At one time, the movie emulates to consider it was man made strategies and other with brutal ghost.

Good show of editing, screenplay, acting and direction. One time, audiences were made horrified but they are bound to laugh next second.

One can get a feeling that they had a great time (especially with family )after watching this movie.

fun riot

[suryak_mail · 7/10 · 22 May 2014]

I always love the genre horror comedy. It is a famous genre in Hollywood. We could have watched scary movie serious, the cabin in the woods. This movie is also followed the same genre. Even though its a inspiration of the Korean movie 'The Quiet Family', they treated it differently. First 10mins with song part is boring. After they enter in to the hotel. Its was fabulous. I was laughing till the interval. And we can't say this is the best performance from characters, it was quite OK. Background music was simple and gave a big hand to the screenplay. But they could have avoided the unwanted songs. The twist are some times predictable sometimes its not. The characters are afraid with the circumstances but they made us laugh even in single one-liner. Director deekay done a good job with his first film and cinematography was fine, we can see the brightness in the picture even though the situation was dark. Editing supported the movie well. Overall, its must watch to all who seek new concepts and fun and just an entertainer..

A Different Flavour of Comedy

[akshayspace96 · 7/10 · 28 June 2014]

Yaamirukka Bayamey is a film which basically revolves around a guy whose life is eaten up by problems till his long-lost dad offers him a house property. Knowing that this is his chance to start afresh, he decides to move in with his girlfriend. He meets two other people and together, they transform the house into a hotel and start up their business. What happens in the hotel is something the viewers will have to find out as they watch the film. The film is funny and refreshing in parts, some scenes are even creative. Viewers will definitely not be disappointed with the final product. As for the most part of the film, it focuses mainly on typical spooks and scares. What makes it interesting is the comedy which is infused together with those scenes. It's a good attempt from a new team, yet definitely could've showed more strength in several scenes. YB - 7.2/10 (64%)

Full of comedy with no sense of horror and without at least a story

[Insane_Man · 4/10 · 16 January 2019]

In very much brief, this movie has no story, not a bad story, not a worst story, but there is no story here just it is. Horror? Illogical, nonsense horror sequences. It can be call as a comedy movie. Full of comedy. Krishna Sekhar is good. I like his acting skill, he is good in his every movies. By the way, now the ratings are- Story 0/10, Horror 4/10, Comedy 8/10. Average 4/10.
