Plot

Anand alias Bruce Lee, a college graduate, lives in Chennai and studies martial arts with a group of similarly jobless friends as he hates the idea of 9-5 jobs. Anand, in an attempt to recruit new students to pay tuition fees and save their school, gets involved in a brawl and falls for Shakthi, the daughter of DCP Gaurav. In the city, a series of burglaries are happening across the city, which has left dozens dead and countless amounts of money stolen. The police believe that a new robbery is about to take place. Anand's grandfather advises him to make Shakthi see him as a hero.

Anand wears a borrowed superhero costume and introduce himself as Mugamoodi to Shakthi, where he tries to impress the children with his skills and accidentally ends up in the middle of a police chase. Anand helps the cops capture one of the bandits, but the gang shoots the captured member when they are transferring him. The news which Mugamoodi captured one of the suspects, which police could not catch them in months, spreads across the city and Shakthi begins to like Mugamoodi. Gaurav finds a match between a fingerprint from the crime scene and one from police records.

Anand decides to visit Shakthi again unmasked to reveal his identity and confess his love to her. While arriving to meet Shakthi, Anand encounters a gang member, who shoots Gaurav. Anand tries to seize him, but the gunman escapes after the gun is seized by Anand and the family believe Anand shot Gaurav. Anand is being chased by the police and is on the run. The gang kills Anand's friend Viji, who went with him to visit Shakthi. Anand is again seen by police alone with Viji's dead body and is naturally thought responsible for the killing. Anand's grandfather and brother create a superhero costume.

Gaurav survives and the gang decides to kill him and his family in the hospital. Anand (masked himself as Mugamoodi) saves them by defeating the gang and takes Gaurav's file containing the latest findings of the case, including the fingerprint match, as he wants to avenge Viji's death. To Anand's shock, The police findings in the documents are against his martial arts teacher Sifu (a fake martial arts a la kung fu) Chandru. Chandru reveals that he is not connected to those cases and reveals that Anguchamy alias Dragon is behind the crimes. Chandru and Dragon learnt martial arts in the same school 22 years ago.

Meanwhile, Dragon also learns that Mugamoodi is Anand, where he and his gang raids Chandru's school to kill Anand, but they kill Chandru when he is nowhere to be seen. The gang seizes a port and kidnaps 30 children, along with three adults including Shakthi, as hostages to blackmail the cops. They demand the police to arrange a ship which guarantees their safety across the Indian border, while they also demand Mugamoodi to drive a van of gold alone. The gang threaten to kill the hostages if their demands are refused. Anand agrees to drive the gold and a fight ensues between him and Dragon.

During the fight, Dragon takes off Mugamoodi's mask and reveals his identity to Shakthi. Dragon also confesses that his brother Anthony had shot Gourav earlier. With the help of his grandfather and friends that had him sneaked into the port, Anand kills some key members of the gang. A fight ensues between Anand and Dragon, where Dragon falls to his death in the sea. Anand release the hostages and Shakthi tells him to continue as Mugamoodi.

Mysskin wrote Mugamoodi's story in 2005.[6] In September 2008, it was reported that Suriya signed a film titled Mugamoodi (Mask), which will be directed by Mysskin and produced by UTV Motion Pictures.[7] It was reported that A. R. Rahman would compose the music for the film. The film was reported to made on a budget of ₹35 crore, as the film involved extensive computer graphics and visual effects.

Mysskin revealed that the film will be made in his style, with tout-thrilling moments. "Taking into consideration that I am making an Indian film, I can’t showcase something that is impossible. I want my audience to accept my films and not make a joke of it. This is real cinema and I have shown what any superhero can exhibit in his zone," he added.[19] The film was launched with a formal puja ceremony, which was held in December 2011 at Santhome school auditorium, Chennai.[20]

K, who had scored for Mysskin's Yuddham Sei (2010), was selected as the film composer over two other music directors, while Madhan Karky would pen the lyrics, associating for the first time with Mysskin.[21] Action sequences were choreographed by Tony Leung, who has worked with Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan action choreographers from Hong Kong.[22] Other technicians includes cinematographer Sathyan Sooryan, editor Gaugin, dance choreographer Radhika, art director Bala, and costume designer Amritha Ram.[23][24]

Reception

Critical response

Mugamoodi received mixed reviews from critics with praise for its VFX, action sequences, direction, music and cast performances, but criticism for its script.[83]

Prakash Upadhyaya of Oneindia gave 3.5/5 stars and recommended the film and wrote "Mysskin's approach to Mugamoodi is realistic, like before, and he has not tried to add unnecessary commercial elements. Mugamoodi would have a better appeal if the length of the movie would be reduced."[84] The Times of India gave 3.5/5 stars and wrote "The fact remains that Mugamoodi is not as taut as the director’s earlier works."[85]

Behindwoods gave 3/5 starts and told that it had a "pacy first half, [a] slow second half but [was] compensated by the overall performance and effort of the cast & crew."[86] R. S. Prakash of Mumbai Mirror gave 2.5/5 stars and wrote "In comparison, the film’s first half is better than the second. The opening scenes are deadly till the director opts for a different route to tell the tale."[87]

Pavithra Srinivasan of Rediff gave 2/5 stars and wrote "Mugamoodi has all the makings of a successful film but ends up disappointing."[88] IBNLive cited that the film had a "different flavour" and wrote "For those who love the West and East's action films, Mugamoodi combines both to give some pleasure."[89]

Malathi Rangarajan of The Hindu noted that it "travels on a terrain that’s new to Tamil cinema" and wrote "Mysskin's effort to make Mugamoodi appear as authentic as possible deserves to be commended."[90] Sify termed it as average and wrote "Mugamoodi is a one-time watch for Mysskin and Jiiva’s attempt to do something different. It has very good music and background score by K, but lacks a proper script and a racy presentation."[91]

Box office

Mugamoodi had higher occupancy on its opening day.[92] The film grossed ₹10 crores in 3 days of its release.[93] The Tamil and Telugu versions alone got ₹9 crores in India, with ₹2 crores from Andhra Pradesh.
