It's the nervous comedy of out-of-depth characters tossed in a supernatural rumpus that draws us inside Munjya's small-scale boos and threats. Go to Full Review

Nathan J. @NathanDirector 5d Rating: 6.1/10 ⭐️ I expected practical effects, but the shift to a fully CGI villain gave it a chaotic vibe. What Worked: Dedicating half the $3.6M budget to DNEG for a CGI monster paid off with an unsettling presence. Shooting on location gives the folklore a super grounded texture. Weaving actual regional lore into the origin story adds cultural depth over cheap jump scares. The Cuts: Bouncing the spirit between a goat, the love interest, and the uncle meant the middle part really dragged for me. Through my faith and flag lens, the human sacrifice and demonic possession pushed way too far into the dark occult. The ambiguous ending just forced in universe cameos, leaving me without a satisfying victory. Verdict: Expands the universe but gets bogged down by repetitive plots and super dark occult themes. Favorite Line: “You can bury the past, but the roots remain.” See more Shveta B @RT71096902 Apr 17 Great storyline , great acting by Bittu. Loved it! See more Sadaf T @RT36833686 02/01/2025 The movie is excellent. I did not watch it in the theater, which I will regret. Great acting by actors. Amazing storytelling. I don't know why it is a low rating for the rotten tomatoes. It is such an entertaining movie to watch with family. I loved it. See more Nikhil K @retired_cinephile 10/18/2024 "Munjya," a film rooted in Maharashtrian culture, offers an accessible experience for non-Maharashtrian viewers but falls short in several areas: Pacing: Starts strong but quickly loses steam. Narrative: Disjointed scenes lack coherence. Comedy: Attempts at humor miss the mark. Scares: Relies heavily on jump scares. Script: Weak writing undermines the overall experience. Lead Actress: Underutilized until the final dance number. VFX: Bad While "Munjya" provides some cultural insights, its structural weaknesses and mediocre execution make it a one-time watch at best. The film's attempt to balance regional flavor with broad appeal is noteworthy, but it's not enough to overcome its shortcomings in script and character development. See more Mohan P @RT79102821 10/13/2024 kabaada film, useless VFX, lacks a sense of plot and seems dragged throughout. See more Namgyal B @RT78324000 10/08/2024 Pathetic movie only increased my blood pressure. Munjya character was good but the story line was pathetic. Some funny scene was good rest were just over acting and bad script. How can you be so slow even at a do or die situation. Plz don't make such movies. See more Read all reviews
