BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

ayhansalamci Gandhi is a person who has won the hearts of people with his life vision and philosophy. There's so much to say about her. I think it's a great pioneering biography. The film has the most crowded scene of cinema history. I want to congratulate the movie actors and especially Ben Kingsley. He gave more than the role he played. I want to finish with Gandhi's terrific promise. "Yes I am, I am also a Muslim, a Christian, a Buddhist, and a Jew."

michaelscheer-66014 Do you believe in heroes? Heroes to look up to? Because I recently watched a movie which is about a real life hero. The movie is called ''Gandhi''. It was released in 1982 by Richard Attenborough. The movie is about the life of the famous Indian independence fighter Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi or as you may know him ''Mahatma Gandhi''. The movie got nominated for 11 Academy Awards in 1983 and won 8 of them. One of them was won in the category of ''Best Movie''. The movie is a historical drama. The movie starts with the assassination of Gandhi in 1948. It then flashbacks onto his life and the effects he achieved. Gandhi is one of India's most famous persons ever to be alive. He fought, in a peaceful way, for India's Independence. Gandhi's way of living and dealing with problems was unique. He left his mark on people like Martin Luther King or Nelson Mandela. Although the movie is about three hours long, it is full of scenes which catch the viewers' emotions by surprise. Overall this is a great movie because it describes the life of Gandhi pretty well for three hours. The movie keeps the viewers' attention at all times. I would give it a rating of 10/10.

benmeijereft Gandhi is the best movie I have ever seenQuote by Gandhi: I know a way out of hell....Epic & inspiring. This movie has inspired me and changed my life in so many ways. I became vegetarian. I felt I too should contribute and make a positive difference to the world. I became a therapist. I realized life was about striving to become a better human being. The music of this movie was my first exposure to Indian music. The raw emotions in the music ripped me apart. No sugar coating, this is real. I hope every man, woman and child gets to see this movie in their life, for Gandhi can move us towards becoming better human beings. I should be part of school curriculum, just like Shakespeare and the Pythagorean theorem. The movie connects us to very tangible themes in our life - inequality, oppression, racism, and authority and lawfulness not being morally right. Gandhi = Non-Violence, and standing up for those treated unfairly. My God, Gandhi has caused India to become free from the British without a violent uprising. Our world, so full of power hungry leaders who promise us - we will bomb you into democracy - could use more of this attitude of respect and non-violence. How very relevant.Boring or riveting - Expectations. This movie was made in 1982, before impossible CGI. The crowds are real. Today we are more into fast paced and gripping action movies. If you dare to slow down to the movie, and let it touch you, it has many messages about our life. This is no Matrix (and yet it is). If your want to be entertained with another empty flick, this movie is not for you. This movie is about real life struggles, this is about life and striving to become a better human being. This movie has depth, and shoves a mirror in our faces.Why was this movie so good? Ben Kingsley was Gandhi. He did not play Gandhi, he became Gandhi. Such humility, so human in his struggle to do the right things. The dialogue is amazing. Very inspiring. The scale of the movie is mind boggling, the size of the crowds. The themes... our politicians should take notes. Gandhi lived so shortly ago, we can almost touch him. Through this movie, he touches us, and shows us it is possible to make a difference.What is Gandhi - Storyline. A biopic about Mohandas K Gandhi. The story of all major events from 1893 South Africa, racism, to India in 1948, his unfortunate death. The movie illustrates his character and the world changing effect he had. Ben Kingsley. Attenborough.

Takethispunch The film begins on the day of Gandhi's assassination on 30 January 1948. After an evening prayer, an elderly Gandhi is helped out for his evening walk to meet a large number of greeters and admirers. One of these visitors, Nathuram Godse, shoots him point blank in the chest. The film then cuts to a huge procession at his funeral, which is attended by dignitaries from around the world.The early life of Gandhi is not depicted in the film. Instead, the story flashes back 55 years to a life-changing event: in 1893, the 23-year-old Gandhi is thrown off a South African train for being an Indian sitting in a first-class compartment despite having a first-class ticket.Realising the laws are biased against Indians, he then decides to start a nonviolent protest campaign for the rights of all Indians in South Africa. After numerous arrests and unwelcome international attention, the government finally relents by recognising some rights for Indians.
