800

What a beautiful movie, really heart touching and moving. Literally cried in some of the scenes! We all have seen many biopics on cricket especially but I really like this movie. The storyline is absolutely amazing and acting is top notch by Madhur Mittal, it's not easy to fill the shoes of Murli sir. From slumdog millionaire to 800 Madhur Mittal has come a long way. He has aced the role, the transformation is just mind-blowing. The dialogue delivery, the screenplay is quite amazing... I really hope he does alot of movies here in Bollywoo Overall it's a nice watch, people should go watch in the theatres.

Murali is undeniably one of the greatest cricketers to ever play the game. And it's often interesting to hear that his journey was riddled with as much roadblocks to rival his own success. Too many of course, to fit into a single movie, yet was exactly what was attempted here; with none of them ending up being any more insightful than a sentence on a Wikipedia article.

800 is essentially a weakly written checklist of career highlights with no perceivable goal than to merely say "hi, this here is Murali. He did ___ in the year ____". And it wasn't just the writing, but the acting too was poor on all fronts; starting from the obviously inexperienced supporting crew, all the way up to lead actor Madhur Mittal; who does everything in his power to milk any bit of emotion from this rather soulless script. The VFX was noticeably bad too; where all the shots were so poorly composited that it ended up distracting us from a movie that desperately needed any bit of our attention. The movie also attempts a stylistic approach to showcasing a cricket match, yet fails spectacularly in that too; with the end result looking more like choreographed stock videography than an actual cricket match.

The problem with 800 is that it screams inexperience in almost every aspect, and you can't help but feel that Murali deserves so much more than what this movie ended up being.

"Being a cricket enthusiast, I couldn't wait to see ""800."" But after experiencing the film, my admiration for Muthiah Muralidaran, fondly known as Murli Sir, reached new heights. The movie did a remarkable job of capturing his journey, and I was deeply moved by the challenges he overcame to achieve greatness in the cricketing world. What truly added to the movie's brilliance was the outstanding performance by Madhur Mittal. He brought Murli Sir's character to life with such authenticity and skill that it felt like you were watching the legend himself. It's no small feat to portray a real-life icon convincingly, and Madhur Mittal's talent shone brightly in this role."

After watching 800, I will just say that a star is never born, it's created! This is a transformative moment in Madhur Mittal's acting career, that helped him showcase a new depth of talent. A challenging role to play, but Madhurr ne toh Chakka maar diya yaar! I, as an audience was deeply impressed by his nuanced performance, recognizing his ability to breathe life into complex characters. With 800, Madhurr established himself as a versatile actor, opening doors to diverse and compelling roles, thus shaping a promising trajectory in his acting journey. I can vouch for him and this movie. Kudos to him.💓💓

The film highlights the importance of mentorship in Muralitharan's life, portraying the role of his coaches with depth.800 encapsulates Muralitharan's journey as a beacon of hope for aspiring cricketers from marginalized backgrounds. The movie showcases the impact Muralitharan's success had on the collective psyche of Sri Lanka, inspiring a generation. The dedication and hard work Muralitharan put into mastering his craft are beautifully portrayed in 800. The movie taps into the universal theme of passion, reminding us of the power of pursuing what we love.800 accurately captures the excitement and frenzy generated by Muralitharan's bowling during his prime.
