Is an honest review possible? The answer is no its not possible. Those who watched the movie knows that why am I telling this .
(SPOILER: They recreated the whole Jalianwala Bagh massacre and the struggle for life after that. It was so perfectly done that even a statue of stone would start crying like a baby. I couldn’t watch the whole scene, I started skipping it.💔)
I am going to try and review the movie as honestly as possible.
I would be judging this movie on the basis of 5 categories.
Category 1 : Story & Dialogue
The Dialogues were flawless and so their delivery. Dialogues like “Koi Zinda Hai” and “Ek PAL SIRF WO APNI THI AUR DUSRE HI PAL SAB APNE HO GAYE”, these words cut deeper than any blade or bullet.
STORY is very good but the writer failed to weave the story in one . It looked like it was in pieces, a bit here and there, that’s why we couldn’t connect with the character in the first half of the movie as its starts to get boring.
Conclusion : 0.8/1 star in story and dialogue.
ACTING : 1/1 *
Acting is flawless Vicky Kaushal, Mr. Shaun Scott as Michael O’Dwyer his acting is so perfect that you starts believe that he is the one who ordered the massacre starts to hate him for what he didn’t do actually.
The Cast is very very good and the best of all I was just happy to see BABA ( Amol Prashar ) as BHAGAT SINGH and he is done it perfectly.
Screenplay : 0.7/1*
As I told you earlier, Story is messy and we know that Story and Screenplay go hand in hand.
So, it’s also kind of messy.
Cinematography / Editing : 1.8/2*
We all know that in Bollywood the cinematography is one of the best,
but still there are some things that should be done more perfectly like the sound of the dialogues . if you are watching with headphones on then its fine but if u try and watch it on speakers you would face a hard time listening to the dialogues. Worst of all, the translators dude they were just so lazy that they just killed all the feel from foreign dialogues. They should have add hindi subtitles to all the foreign parts .
I am going to give 0.9/1* for cinematography and 0.9/1* for Editing.
The whole movie rating : 4.3/5
Now, I rest my case . Please don’t be offended from my review because maybe its not for you.✌️❤️
