However, should we use beautifully at the end of sentence or next to word movie ?

The usual place is at the end, but you can also put it after 'The movie'. Both ways are correct.

Yes, instinct says to place it at end of the sentence. I am just trying to correlate this with theory. Why should we put at end and it is still correct ? Doesn't rules say to put the adjectives close to the subject or adverb close to verb?

No. You may be misunderstanding something. Adjectives are normally placed before the noun they modify. It doesn't matter if that noun is a subject or not. Adverbs of frequency are placed before a single verb
