Meaghamann

Meaghamann could have used a more charismatic hero, but it helps that Siva is a grade-A brooder, not given to effusive displays of emotion. Anupama Kumar compensates somewhat as a cop given to declarations like "The game is getting deadlier." Indeed, the director actually makes us believe that Siva is in danger. Given the general invincibility of the hero in our cinema, this is no mean accomplishment — a stretch involving enemies closing in on Siva is particularly well done.

Go watch Meaghamann if you are excited by the idea of a serious action film with some style and intelligence. Magizh Thirumeni's screenplay is plausible with the right cinematic liberties.
