    Megamind To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.
    StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
    Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
    Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
    hellominigarg Ramanand Sagar's Ramayana (1986) is really very pleasantly presented and you can watch it endlessly. I watch it over and over again. But, main problem that i see in this series that makes it old and sometimes outdated for the advanced graphic seeking generation is the lack of good effects in Ramanand Sagar's Ramayana (1986) episodes.There should be re-development of this series by same production and direction team and i hope they maintain the same pleasant and respectful presentation of the show.I really appreciate the show like this and the most important thing that makes Ramanand Sagar's Ramayana (1986) series even more interesting and pleasant to watch is amazing casting. All the major casts are just perfect for their roles and that i think should be the major concern of all the series.
    Anupam Agrawal Ramanand Sagar researched many versions of the countless Ramayan written by countless poets in the journey to produce this masterpiece. This version of the Ramayan is mainly based on Goswami Tulsidas Shree Ramcharitmanas. Even after almost 30 years and many follow-on versions and attempts by others, the depiction and narration by Ramanand Sagar is on a different plane. The music, visuals and singers are all enchanting due to the innocence and the type of cinema of the 1980s. Ramanand Sagar managed to extract near perfect performances from all the characters of his cast. Thank you to Ramanand Sagar for producing this masterpiece.
    vipin88 I saw this series in my childhood and could associate myself only from the religious point of view . Now that I am aware of a little bit working of this world , when I am watching this series again on DVD , I can understand why Ramayana as a epic is so relevant in modern times . It gives a message of love, peace , harmony and dutifulness with the right dose of righteousness in all our actions . The narrative is simple and the characters very true to life .Most of us in India at least understand religion as a sacred duty and not in day to day affairs of life , which ideally it should be. This series , had for the first time explained , with warmth the importance and fun to be righteous and humble in every sphere of daily life . Whoever wishes to improve his life a little more must see and understand from Ramayana.
    ixtab9 This lengthy television adaptation of THE RAMAYANA is entertaining as long as the viewer has a working familiarity with Hindu mythology and is patient enough to enjoy the liesurely pace. I don't think it's likely to win over anyone who comes to the material cold or who comes to it expecting Spielberg-level special effects.It's refreshing to see a visual realization of something other than Graeco-Roman mythology since, fascinating as that subject is, it's already gotten pretty sizeable exposure in movies and on television. Rama and Sita come alive nicely in this production and unsurprisingly Hanuman manages to steal a few scenes. The style is faithful to the original epic so anyone who loves the story doesn't have to fear that it's been transformed into a slam-bang all-action blockbuster.
