Paltan

People nowadays watch stupid movies like Bombay Valvet more than these movies, at least cinema owners and media think about promoting these movies. Simple movies, no stupid love stories, no stupid songs, just simple movies like this people always miss. Highly Recommended!

Its a no nonsense movie with actual facts and incidents of the battle and not scuffle as most of Indians tag it.

i read some critics talking about the weaknesses and problems with movie but such as Langer from Indian express and i will not blame them because for them movies such as Tiger Zinda ... are actual war movies. There were problems back than with China and there are ongoing issue as we see this movie. Knowing some of the people who were there on that day of the incidents, I can tell you that this is exactly what happened on that day.

Its low budget, no fancy stuff but honest movie. Must watch i would say

I am personally a huge fan of war movies and it takes a lot for me to rate it lower. But this movie is made on the border template. Without application of thought. Same type of character building, same style of back story. And just when the tempo would get exciting, they cut the tempo with flashback or some song. Sad editing. It could have been fast and furious. But alas. All my loyalty could not make me like it.

One spends money on so many useless things today. So, just buy the ticket, try to watch it, its not that bad and if you don't like it, come out. But do promote patriotic movies.

Paltan is pretty slow, is simplistic in all moments apart from those at the border, where it comes to gritty and realistic life. The relentless jostling for position, the eerie quiet in the barren plateaus of Sikkim, the reverberating hammer, driving the stake to the ground, where inch by inch, India washed the demons of 1962. Its as if you are there, and watching the action. So, unlike a Bollywood movie, things happen slowly. Therefore it's not going to be a hit. Yet, if anyone needs to understand what's happening on the LAC day in and day out at Arunachal and Ladakh, this is a must see. JP Dutta uses his motifs of letters from loved ones, calls to them, and the mandatory flashbacks, yet he doesn't quite create the magic of the iconic 'Border'.
