    Jigsaw puzzle game !!

    #MagaMuni

    Magamuni is one of those films where the sum is, unfortunately, lesser than its parts. While the film does manage to hold the tension until the end, you walk out wondering if that was all. That question makes me put it in the space between a good film and a great film. And that sometimes makes all the difference !!

    @aryaoffl gives a measured performance, with equal composure for the most part !!

    @musicthaman makes an exciting comeback with a chilling score !!

    The craft in Magamuni is splendid. Santhakumar and editor Sabu Joseph piece together a terrific narrative that maintains mood and intrigue !!

    #sanathkumar screenplay and narration constructed like a jigsaw puzzle !!

    Sorry for the delay and didn't watched at the time of release !! Now I'm regretting what I missed !! @indhuja_ravichandran @mahima_nambiar #Rohini #Ilavarasu did very well !!

    Extraordinary Film Making by Santhakumar

    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!

    Excellent script

    The movie is clueless till the end. The direction & script of the movie is just superb. BGM is another backbone of the movie. aryaoffl nailed it in dual role with his performance. ActressIndhuja as vijji just fabulous I loved it.

    Master Peice

    Success of the movie is that, it takes you inside the story! The way they narrate the story is brilliant, Arya and both the heroins have given their best performance! Director after 8 years has given a massive strong Comeback!
