Just finished watching the movie 83. Feel like I should write my personal opinion about over all film
It is nothing less than insanity trying to make sort of biopic of a game where entire time stamp of the event is written and known to the nation by smallest little detail. It is a game where end result is already known. Every single game and every single ball bowled and played is actually known to the audience. You can't really expect to create emotions and drama that is not there. That too biopic of a person (Kapil Dev) whose communication skills never known to have impressed
Still producers had faith in the director, Tremendous faith in the screen play, lead actor and the Indians emotions about Cricket
I personally believe though movie lacks in usual masalas and Indian song and dance sequences, it is a great effort. Deserves lots of praise. This movie has real honesty in bringing a national event in front of audience with least melodrama. Yes, unless you love sports and enjoy reality more than drama, this film may not appeal. But Kudos to Mr. Kabir Khan and Mr. Ranvir Singh. Movie has a heart and needs appreciation. Though I rate this film 3 out of 5, I think it deserves 5 out if 5 for the honesty and incredible hold on reality of the events. I recommend this film to all those audience who love reality. Good film
