Gandhi My Father Movie Review

Anil Kapoor takes on the mantle of a producer with Gandhi My Father. The movie deals with the enstranged relationship between Mahathma Gandhi and his son Harilal. As the tag line of the film goes : “To The Nation He Was A father But To His Son He Was A Father He Never Had”. The films promos appear interesting but lets see how the critics judged the film. Here is a list of reviews of Gandhi My Father from some of Bollywood’s top critics.

Rajeev Masand : “Much effort’s gone into the making of this film and that’s evident throughout, but the film suffers from that inevitable flaw that is eventually what you’ll remember about it when you leave the cinema - it’s just so boring.”

Movie Rating : 2/5

Taran Adarsh : “ A landmark film in all respects, highlighting a scene or two would be doing gross injustice to the film. For, every sequence has the power to keep you hooked and most importantly, carries the stamp of a genius. ”

Movie Rating : 4/5 

Syed  Ashraf : “Overall, the film has its share of gut-wrenching moments at the plight of a son with ‘Gandhi’ attached to his name. The film is worth a watch for its brave attempt to paint another picture of the Mahatma, not found in our history books.”

Movie Rating : 3/5

 Indicine : “To sum things up, Gandhi My Father is a average movie with powerful performances by the lead actors. The movie has its moments but just not enough to carry a historical. Somehow, somewhere there is something lacking. In short Gandhi my father failed to live upto my expectations.”

Movie Rating : 2.5/5

Kaushik Chatterjee : “It is a very difficult movie to watch, requiring patience and concentration, and not really something which you’ll watch over and over again. But one viewing is compulsory.”

Movie Rating :4/5
