Beneath each layer of perception, I questioned my judgments from just minutes earlier while watching this film. May December is an intriguing watch that provokes and plays with the viewer's sensibilities, and that's what makes this film so interesting on a psychological level.

At multiple points in the movie I found scenes and dialogues to be absurd and this feeling only grew denser as the film progressed. However by the time the film concludes, all those strange scenes begin to make sense. This is a deliciously dark and abstract film which talks to the viewer on multiple levels - philosophically, psychologically and metaphorically. This film is not for everyone. The viewer will need a lot of patience and openness to reflect, process and interpret scenes. Those who do will definitely find it to be a rewarding experience.

A breezy light hearted show. Worth 4 stars , but one extra star especially for Swara.

A history lesson laid to waste in this over-the-top production that relies on its leading lady's angry antics. I had already lost hope in the movie as it's sub-plots unravelled with a single aim at establishing larger than life heroism of the protagonist. But when Jhansi ki Rani on her horse was shown jumping off the high wall of her fort to land the horse safely on its four hoofs, I couldn't help check my ticket, to see whether I am watching Manikarnika or Ajooba! I missed the research and subtle presentation that such a historical biopic demands.

Funny, Moving, Endearing...
