What makes Magamuni stand out from routine Tamil films in recent time is director-writer Santhakumar’s writing and an extraordinary performance from Arya as Maga and Muni. Thaman’s music and BGM is a huge asset to Magamuni. Cinematographer Arun Padmanaban’s lighting, color tone and the angles used to capture the distinct lives of Maga and Muni deserve applause. Overall, Magamuni is a classic mainstream revenge thriller which is a must-watch for its solid writing and flawless performances of the lead actors. We are going with four out of five for Magamuni. Go for it!
After Naan Kadavul, Arya has gotten a chance to prove his acting skills with a terrific performance in dual roles. Santhakumar has treated the film as a spiritual sequel to his earlier film Mounaguru and has done an excellent job especially in the screenplay. BGM by Thaman was decent and kollywood should use him more. Overall a good watch for the weekend if you are a fan of thrillers
