Seen a good historical adventure movie after a long time. Was a good fun movie to watch. If one is ready to ignore some of the logical abrasions in the story line then it would be a great watch.

Would not recommend it for anyone looking to find a very accurate historical adventure, though. There is a great deal of illogical things that happen in the story.

What keeps one glued to the movie is a twist in the story every 20 minutes. While the story in between the twists is predictable it is still fun to watch it unfold.

Would recommend as a family movie.

Looking forward to a sequel.

The movie has gained great populace due to its religious undertone. Most people rating this movie are rating it high due to great historical story it represents rather than its cinematic brilliance. First the positives. - The movie claims to show exact replicas of historical locations, weapons used, etc. This is real interesting as one gets to see how things really looked in olden times. Such consideration to details are rare to see in Indian Cinema. - The director and producer should be given credit to make the movie without causing any strong complaints by any religious group. Another rare occurrence for Indian movies having such under lying themes. Improvement points - The movie appears to be a very comic bookish representation of these historical events. It could have done more detailing of some of the historical characters and the circumstances that lead to this happening. - A lot of areas could have been detailed without spoiling the story. For instance the art of warfare which enabled the fighters to fight such large armies is not shown. Apart from faith and valor there is also some great fighting and strategy techniques used in that period. These are still practiced today by the descendants of the warriors. The movie could have showcased this great art in more detail.

Overall a movie which narrates a religious story well but could have been done better.

I watched this movie with an open mind and was surprised to find a mature script and good direction by a first time director. I am surprised that the movie did not do well at the box office which after some research I believe happened due to the timing of release of the movie.

The script is very well written with details thought through. There is an irony in every twist of plot. The events of the plot are all interlinked so don't consider any character or scene unnecessary in the movie. They all have a role in taking the story forward.

This is among the great movies of the year I have seen released until May 2014. For people who like to see movies with a little thinking this is a must see.
