Priceless and Scintillating
83- Patriotic, energy pumping and goosebumps moments movie that invigorates lots of pride moments and fulfillment.
Kabir Khan carries forward the script, story and screenplay with finesse and maintains the cricket theme as the heart and soul, with zero deviation.
Ranveer Singh hits fours and sixes with pitch perfect "The Haryana Hurricane" Kapil paaji.
Cheeku's comic timing is on point. Rest of the characters have done extremely well.
This is not a cinema alone, as we get a chance to relive magical moments with thunderous experience. It's priceless!

Typical sports drama and it works!!
The movie is the experience of the 1983 Cricket World Cup winning team. The good thing is none of the characters are vilified for the sake of 'antagonist' and everything is represented in the realms of Sports Drama. There are moments that make it emotional and make you cry. Kabir Khan and Ranveer Singh have pulled off a fantastic magic here. Do watch in theatres!!
Ranveer singh knocked it out of the park
A wonderful and breath freshing film with all the actors did great in filling the shoes of the cricketers which is in itself a huge achievement. Ranveer singh take a bow ,the Man never disappoints including co actors pankaj tripathi and the ones who played srikkanth,yashpal sharma were outstanding. The film is mixture of all the aspects emotions, nationalism,pride, dedication,hardwork and lots of laughter. It is written really well and always keeps you on the edge of your seat and takes you through the journey of the story. Never feels bored and the film itself teaches you to enjoy the life.the film has so many moments through out which will make you die laughing.
The negative aspect of the film is the melo-drama which is generally expected to digest for the Indian audience. It gets more and more as the tournament progresses and ruins the finale.
Deepika Padukone had a short role did look good but was unnecessary.
With a glimpse cameo of Kapil Dev himself the film is a complete mass entertainer.
I will give it 8 out of 10 stars.

Ignore the bad reviews
For those who have lived through the 83 times, it will be a memorable reminder of what the feelings were in India at that time. For those who were born just within the decade of 83 it will serve as a showcase for the events that we have heard off and the legends that we have seen. For the kids and teenagers who are following the cricket of today, this movie shows how the game became a second nature to most Indians and how the glamorous game was once a pale event.
Every generation has something to take away from the movie. Yes, it could have been better, but given the fact that it is coming from a director and a production house which wanted to make a mass-entertainer, it has done a great job.
Ranveer almost becomes Kapi Dev and you won't remember him any other way towards the end of the movie. The rest of the cast has also done a superb job with Jeeva, Pankaj and Hardy taking easily the attention away. The game itself has been shot brilliantly. If you are lucky to be among a jubilant crowd in the theater it will be a much exhilarating experience.
Go watch! Ignore the negative reviews. This story needs to be told for the current generation.
