Chhaava, a clearly one-sided film with an unecessary amount of dramatic action and dialogue that masked the true historical context in which the movie took place. I am a huge fan of history and I truly value a movie that gives respect to history. Therefore, I simply could NOT take the cheesy-ness and awfulness that was presented in this movie. I think even if this movie did not aim for historical accuracy, it still wouldn't be very good-- there was a non-existant story and it just seem like the directors wanted an excuse to show some cheesy battle action for 2 hours straight.

Dragon has a super creative story plot that, above all, tells of a character who’s stuck between the happiness of success and the impulse to maintain that success at the expense of ethics. I can’t think of a better movie that has the dramatic style typical of indian cinema, but also a deep emotional intimacy. It has an overarching moral take-away with, of course, your bit of unexpected humor and irony.
