as this movie deliver the social message and to be honest well are aware of the politician who are behind the drug supply in Punjab

song are nice, as so screenplay could have been more tight, but overall turn out the best , all credit goes to director for bringing out the best performance from all star cast , majorly most of the dialogues are in Punjabi and also the songs which goes with the situation and not to mention the background score is really great

please watch in theater as this movie deserve that

so last few days,the outrage about this movie being under such circumstances and all.. has finally released..and the movie is so honest.. being a resident of Punjab i can say that yes!! this is Punjab.. Punjabi's are not what Bollywood used to show before doing "bale bale Shava Shava....oh Bhaji oh Bhaji" no its not Punjab.. this is Punjab.. 70% of Punjab's youth consume drugs.. and this is unstoppable off course.. Phantom has done it again.. The creativity of Abhishek Chaubey,Vikrmadatiya Motwane,Anurag Kashyap and Vikas Behl is not the new thing i m amazed with..they are the best Shahid Kapoor-oh my god..what a performer what a dedication..what a choice of role he has made.. Diljit Dosanjh- Sir welcome in Bollywood i knew u gonna rock..superb role..as usual.. Alia Bhatt-a way to go lady..this performance is for decades.. i am her biggest fan After Highway Kareena Kapoor-finally madam a good movie for you to prove yourself that why are you ruling millions of Heart from Years.. A salute to film makers yes.. the environment the movie is set in is disturbing.. People follow the Punjabi singers that talk about drugs and all.. Punjabi singers talk about riffles luxury cars and all.. while in reality the Punjab is all about (Jameen ban jar Te Aulaad Kanjar) god bless Punjab and may the political environment encouraging the drugs soon be out of our "used to be" prosperous state.. :) thanks phantom

#UDTAPUNJAB SALUTE TO MAKERS! EXCELLENT FILM! 9.5*! Diljit Dosanjh is very very good and so is Kareena Kapoor. On the other hand, Shahid Kapoor and Alia Bhatt are phenomenal! #UdtaPunjab #UdtaPunjab spreads awareness about a very important issue in a very entertaining manner! This film is hilarious in many parts! And still, its emotional content is too strong! Excellent work on direction,writing,screenplay,editing. Never bores you. #UdtaPunjab #UdtaPunjab is a must watch! This film, while dealing with an important issue, doesn't preach. It grips you with it's emotional... ...and funny content! I salute the makers for making such a bold film! #UdtaPunjab 9.5* from me! Alia's performance as a field worker is commendable. Her struggle to escape the harsh reality is met with horrific consequences but she is a fighter, who survives the storm. The impact is such that it will stay with you even when you leave the theater.

I am feeling proud that someone thought to make this kind of movie, which seriously shows what punjab is now. I am not feeling proud for what punjab is, but sure m proud of the team who decides to show it present identity and also the team who suffers from censor board's decisions and Hon'ble High Court decisions and now fighting with the unstoppable pirecy. Feeling very shameful for this person who pirated the copy before release shame on you man. You spoil the whole hard work of this team. But i watched this in theater and seriously different movie and awesome script. I wish it may be inspirational for the addicted of Punjab and other states. I wish all the best to all the team for next movie and hope for these kind of innovations from the all team and cast. I love the movie good luck.

I have watched a movie and It is amazing. As i am a Punjabi and I have seen lot of Druggist in Punjab. And What movie has shown is totally correct/similar. Nothing was there that censor have to ban. And Only few movies are there in Bollywood who have shown this kind of reality without any fear. Hats of to the Director.

Initially, All were saying that there is some political character that should not be there in the movie. That is totally wrong. There is nothing like that in the movie.

Also Shahid Kapoor and Alia Bhatt have superb role in this. Diljit had played well as this was his first movie. In short I have totally enjoyed the movie.

Abhishek Chaubey makes a winning change with Udta Punjab, a film about the rampant drug menace in the state of Punjab. Chaubey's portrayal of this region is horrifying, to say the least, presenting a world of terrible destruction and filth which is almost dystopian. Udta Punjab is an unusual film in this regard, it is real and authentic in execution, with lifelike dialogue which includes profanity hardly seen in mainstream Hindi films, and similarly lifelike sets. The film gets very disturbing at points, but at the same time the direction is good enough and balances the negativity.

The casting presents excellent performances, balancing between two pairs of actors, the first two fighting the drug system and the other two being its victims. While the film's two main leads, the hardly recognisable Shahid Kapoor and Alia Bhatt, are the central players here, they are actually more of character actors in this setting, and their stories are presented against the larger backdrop, where Diljit Dosanjh and Kareena Kapoor loosen the intensity with their positive characters who are in many ways the heroes of the film. It is actually a wonderful writing decision.

Shahid Kapoor is like one has never seen. His mannerisms and expressions and his entire attention to detail are really impressive. He does get a little too wide-eyed in his hysterical outbursts, but it's effective within the film's context, and his is a fantastic, convincing turn. It is Alia Bhatt, however, who dominates this film in a much smaller role which digs deep into the human soul. Aside from her mastery of the Bihari accent, she plays the film's most difficult scenes with unsettling, harrowing intensity. And her character remains incredibly optimistic all though. It is a heartbreaking performance.

Dosanjh is a great new find as Sartraj, and he is very convincing as the tough, no-nonsense but kindly levelheaded cop whose moral values are always intact. He has great presence, and his seemingly unlikely chemistry with Kareena is wonderfully built and developed throughout the story. Indeed, these two are responsible for the lighter part of the film, and the bonding their common, novel mission brings about is very touching. Credit should also go to Kareena, the lady star foregoing vanity to play a most regular character with minimal importance and doing it gracefully.

Udta Punjab will surely be accused of a biased, overly negative presentation of the state of Punjab, and not without a reason actually. Those unfamiliar with India might find themselves scared to visit this area of India. While Chaubey mitigates the film's horrors with nice music and other redeeming qualities, he does not do the same with the image of Punjab. At the end of it all, the film is still very watchable, mainly for the performances and the brutally honest portrayal of the destruction of drugs. In this regard, it is interesting and engaging even if not necessarily a fun watch.

The movie is not just any kinda movie with fun and laughter. Its the truth that someone had to bring out eventually. I am glad that Supreme Court intervened and minimized the cuts otherwise a piece of art would have been sacrificed. After seeing the movie you will realize that how sad it is that a state that once had a martyr born in every house has now being replaced by a druggie in every house. Its an old saying that if you want to destroy a country targeting its youth is one of the many initial steps one takes. And it takes only minutes of watch to see who supplies the drugs. That is just one aspect and not just that, the movie then focuses its attention to the basic route and mode of operation of this cartel.This is a must watch movie and one must not just watch it for fun rather one must feel pity for the sorry state of the state that once bubbled with life and energy. As the story revolves around four characters independently at first they are later interwoven though not the best but in an appreciable manner. Shahid and Alia steal the show. There characters are flawless and there screenplay is superb. Diljit the apple of eye of all Punjabi added his best bits and his work is worth commending. I did feel that after the interval the movie was bit too long. The flaw is in editing section and it could have been a lot better. It could have been chipped in some places and it could have saved a few minutes that gave a lethargic feeling. But anyways, overall the movie was worth a watch and a to be recommended one as well. Its not everyday when you see a marvel being created and presented unaltered or unscathed. I am glad Anurag and his team fought till the end to save this piece of art.

This movie involves every effort which makes a film perfect – Action, Emotion, Drama, Suspense, Investigation, Love, and Hate. Should be the movie of the year.

From Alia Bhatt's irresistible cuteness come phenomenal acting, to Shahid Kapoor's comeback performance. 'Udta Punjab' is a must watch. As a newcomer Diljit Dosanjh was quite good. And Kareena Kapoor was flawless as always.

But Alia's performance in this film was outstanding. Yes, you can say that, this was the best role of her career so far. And to Shahid Kapoor, "kya gaali detey ho yaar."

Hats off to the makers. While dealing with an important issue like drugs, the story, never bores you. 'Udta Punjab' is filled with abuses, because that's what they are trying to show us. It need guts to do such kind of movie.

This movie spreads awareness about a very important issue in a very entertaining manner. This film is hilarious in many parts. And still, its emotional content is too strong!

A good command over "Punjabi" will help you to enjoy this film a lot more. But for others, like me, there is English subtitles.

I am inclined to believe that the intention of this movie was a close replication to 'Requiem for a Dream'. If the censor copy says it all ( this is the copy I watched), then the movie is not worth all the controversy which was created recently in the media. I don't even know why the Censor board was making such a big issue out of it. Cause there was nothing much to censor and the film could have passed with an A certification too! So now since the hype is taken care of, I would like to review the movie alongside and in comparison with the Requiem for a Dream(RD) - the cult by Darren Aronofsky.

The movie revolves around the increased drug problem in Punjab. Now whether there is a problem like this or not, the story can still be told. This story, much like RD has parallel stories of people who are addicted to drugs because of various situations and habits. Shahid (Tommy) thrives on cocaine and fuels his music from the drugs - the 'coke cock' line was interesting and it sort of built up the tempo of the story. Thus he is a singer (the usual drugs and rock and roll - no sex) who is abusive in all sense and in heavily dependent on his high. He becomes a modern Jim Morrison - inspiring people to be cool and gets a generation indirectly into a notion that drugs is a happening thing!

The second story is of Alia (Mary Jane) who comes from a poor Bihari family in search of making a living first as an agricultural worker in Punjab. She bumps into this stash of coke and gets involved with people who get her addicted, keep her in confinement and rape her repeatedly. Her addiction is in contrast with Tommy and shows a separate side.

The third character which is focused is the brother of the Diljit Dosanjh (Sartaj - the police officer) who discovers his brother in an overdosed state. In trying to de-addict him, he meets with a doctor (Kareena) who runs a rehab. Touched by the severity of the problem and his own experience with his brother, Sartaj ties to find out more about the drug problem. Directed by Kareena, they figure out the politics of drugs and how they are available uncontrolled in any chemical shop - since there is no direct license requirement for this drug. This story gets intertwined with Sartaj's brother as both try to get him out of the problem.

Now, this setup is similar to - Conelly, Leto and Burstyn where in requiem for a dream, there are these plot lines going across and all centered around drug for different needs and fueled by different psychosis. While that story is more vivid (and I wish Indian cinema could go upto that level of acceptance), these stories are weaker. In part there is brilliance - the goa poster (not mentioning more!) is a tool again which tries to recreate Burstyn's dream and it has been placed well in the movie. Thus there are these moments of interesting analogies but the drag of the stories is far too much. Maybe 30 minutes of lesser explanations and more graphic content would have made the fight with the censor worth it.

Performances were following directorial cue I feel - Shahid was again very good. He pulled up a better performance in Haider primarily because the movie was so well made - but otherwise no complaints from shahid. Alia was surprisingly refreshing. She (maybe) was not very smooth with her Bihari accent but essayed the role very well. Kareena and Diljit were balance - and the kid who played Diljit's younger brother acted very well.

Perhaps the needs for melodrama made the movie lengthy but it could have been a cult had they refrained from populist plots and digressions.

What a saga of a serious issue with the backdrop of punjab .Very realistic and a bold movie ,it deserves 10/10 for the effort . Kudos Phantom and Abhishek Choubey Diljit is outstanding Shahid yet again proves his range he is a very underrated actor , he shows his versatile side in this movie Kareena kapoor is again in a strong role and anyone could fall in love with her . Alia impresses After a long time a gripping movie with solid substance . I thought it could have been made with less negative things but its OK as it justifies the degree of prob well done again Phantom team . I hope we get more acceptance to such movies commercially

There was only one way to find out if the film, a topic of controversy since late May this year, was worthy of all the fuss: to watch it. And it was a genuinely poignant experience to watch Ishqiya-fame Abhishek Chaubey's crime drama unfold and speak volumes about a state in grave peril.

Tommy (Kapoor) is a London-bred Punjabi rock-star who goes by the name Gabru among his fans. Cocaine is a prime ingredient in his lavish lifestyle which soon becomes evident to the viewers who witness his and his crew's eccentricity and madness. One of his little-known fans is Bali (Prabhjyot) who regards Gabru as his idol and cocaine as his medicine. The person who has no idea about Bali's frequent bouts of psychedelic enjoyment is his brother Sartaj (Dosanjh), a cop and a minor yet ignorant player in the corrupted law-enforcement system of Punjab. Dr. Sahni (Khan) is the only major character in the story who doesn't do drugs, and is more of a crusader against them than a medical practitioner. Slightly deviated from all these personages is a Bihari migrant and hockey ace (Bhatt) who was promised a national-level tournament but was handed an insecticide spraying machine instead. Things take a virulent turn for all of them when, one by one, Tommy gets jailed, Bali gets hospitalized, Sartaj gets taunted by Dr. Sahni for his role in the drug problem, and the migrant getting entangled in a petty peddling issue.

It doesn't take much time for the writers to set the scene and let drugs take on the remaining part. And it is also evident what they really had in mind: to explicitly showcase the drug menace in the state and its horrendous consequences, some of which are worse than death. Perhaps the best scene of the film and a scene where the viewers will definitely get a jolt if they are paying attention is when Gabru finds himself locked up in a shared jail cell where also are sitting two of his hardcore teen fans who were arrested for hitting their own mother after she refused to give them money to buy drugs, a habit which they directly imbibed from their rock-star. Brilliant!

The score is absolutely stunning as it supports the sequences in unleashing their total effect. With some fabulous sampling of songs, the narration is pretty straightforward, if not crisp. It does go haywire a couple of times, but they are brief and were probably mandatory for easy flow of the script. Outstanding performances by Kapoor and Bhatt. It is isn't easy to portray such characters. Dosanjh is fine and so is his co-actor who seemed to go into Jab We Met mode at times. Supporting cast is good, especially Satish Kaushik.

With a fast-paced climax, the film is gritty, dark, gory, and tragic for all the stories that intertwine towards the end shut shop once the idea is successfully resonated. It doesn't establish nonsense.

BOTTOM LINE: Abhishek Chaubey's Udta Punjab is an important film that only cares about exhibiting the current scenario of a state embroiled in a drug menace. It almost makes you believe in the story, which everyone knows is at least partially true. Go watch it in your nearest theater.

Can be watched with a typical Indian family? NO

Controversies surrounding "Udta Punjab" finally comes to end as the dark-thriller drama releases today with high expectation thanks to the unwanted publicity it received. As the film was on the verge of getting released, I was wondering what led CBFC (Center Board Of Film Certification) to 89 cuts. We have seen films more violent and more brutal than this. Isn't the subject of "Udta Punjab" required to show the true facts and figures. I must say it was a bold and raw film which should be applauded for its genuine attempt.

"Udta Punjab" is story of 4 people whose lives have been influenced by the drug menace very much evident in the North Indian state of Punjab where it becomes easy money for peddlers selling heroin and opium through the safe hands of politicians.

Director Abhishek Chaubey, previously helmed the well-liked Ishqiya and not-so good Dedh Ishqiya, took a step forward and created a niche subject never been attempted on Indian cinema before. Hats off to him and definitely to the producer Anurag Kashyap for taking his stand through out the controversies surrounding the film. Now coming to the film, the opening scene caters to the subject of drugs easily being exported from neighboring county (an athlete throws a packet of heroin like a "discus throw") and falling into our motherland as if some UFO has landed from space. Subsequent scenes introduces the four main protagonist and each character has been defined appropriately. Till the 1st half, you will be completely kept engrossed thanks to the tight screenplay (ofcourse you will wondering why the film was censored). Second half starts with some promise but goes down the deep rabbit hole and never ever recovers from there. Too much of melodrama and unwanted editing loses the steam built by the engaging first half. The easy access to the drug factory by Diljit Dosanjh and Kareena Kapoor and sneaking out with less effort with out even getting noticed by anyone is indigestible, the human connection between Shahid Kapoor and Alia Bhatt is far stretched and the climax fight scenes are pretty abrupt which dilutes the impact of second half.

Nevertheless, the film is a brave attempt and nail-biting moments like Alia Bhatt fighting back from getting injected with drugs, her frustration venting out when she meets Shahid Kapoor after the concert and the chemistry between Diljit Dosanjh and Kareena Kapoor are some of the highlights of the film. The art direction is splendid along with creative cinematography. Background score is good. Music by Amit Trivedi is mindblowing as it further sets the mood of the film. The title track "Udta Punjab" and "Da Da Dasse" is pick of a lot. "Udta Punjab" is definitely a performance oriented film and that is the key element to watch the film. Among the four main protagonist, Alia Bhatt steals the show. The gifted actor is simply superb as Biharan who lands herself as a migrant ( though she is state-level hockey player). Watch out for her when she kills the guy responsible for her messy state by continuously venting out her frustration. Shahid Kapoor was just about okay in the role that required more intense which was clearly missing. Kareena Kapoor was subtle as Preet. I like her when she plays more simpler characters. Diljit Dosanjh was a good surprise. The Punjabi superstar manages to make an impression inspite of his first Bollywood film.

Overall, "Udta Punjab" is definitely a gritty and dark film which should be appreciated for its solid facts and phenomenal performances.

This movie has been in Buzz for the last 1 month or so due to various reasons. I'll not discuss those as most of us are already aware about the same. But is the movie worth the hype that it managed to generate ? Well the answer is Yes and a No. i.e is partially some scenes are brilliant whereas you will sense mediocrity after that.

Story revolves in 3 to 4 sub plots that give us the introduction of the characters.

We are Introduced to Tommy Singh ( Shahid Kapoor) a pop star who speaks and creates music that is vulgar and loud ..may be reference to Honey Singh who knows.. Anyways he is best at what a Celebrity Rock star here a Pop star can do and is deep into drugs and has his own challenges with his music and his life.

2nd Alia Bhatt referred to a Bihari Girl who was a state level Hockey player and now forced to work in farms in Punjab. Wants to make big by selling theft drugs which ultimately ruins her life and her challenge overcoming the same.

3rd Sartaj Singh ( Diljit Dosanjh) a Cop who wants to eradicate the Drug mafia when he comes to know his younger brother is into drugs by taking help of Preet Sahani (Kareena Kapoor) a Doctor working at rehabilitation for the Drug addicts.

The Characters are linked as victims. You will not see a direct link among st the major characters , Kareena and Shahid do not even have a single scene together. Alia is also introduced to Shahid during the 2nd half.

Overall the directors attempt to expose the drug situation in Punjab is commendable but the movie goes kid dish in parts...

This movie could have been a notch higher if the director could have worked hard on the climax. The Plot seemed to be hassled towards the end. And people killing each other so easily gives you a laugh. The entire hard work that was put in to build the plot was wasted in the end and how many times do we see this in Hindi movies…. No resolution was given at the end and it is up to the viewers to decide what happens.

Though Alia and Shahid do have a happy ending don't know how? The director never gave the explanation how the protagonists got away after killing people…

Acting .. Shahid is in Top form and gives a scintillating performance after Haider, Alia has experimented a lot in this movie and was De glamorized for the role though at times she looks quite out of sorts playing a Bihari girl. Kareena is OK Diljit Dosanjh does a good job.. Overall the movie is sleek and shows the problem in Punjab with sincerity. Go watch the movie for some good acting and the truth of Punjab problem

Udta Punjab (2016): Udta Punjab,the most controversial movie of 2016 released after facing a lot of struggle during its censor.This movie was almost banned by Censor and even gave almost 40 cuts in the movie such that it can be released.This became a hot topic and at last the movie released after the final verdict of Mumai High Court.This controversy helped a lot to raise the expectations on Udta Punjab.So how is it??

Plot: Udta Punjab deals drug addicts and trafficking in Punjab.It revolves around four characters. 1)Tommy Singh The Gabru (Shaahid Kapoor) is rockstar who is a severe drug addict but has great fan following among youth.Most of the youth gets inspired by his songs and gets addicted to drugs.This brings Tommy's career to fall down.

2)Mary Jane (Alia Bhatt) is a hockey player but cant play for nation because of her background.She works in a farm and one day she finds heroin packet weighing 3 kilos.She tries to trade it with notorious criminals which brings her into trouble.

3)Sartaj (Diljit) a junior officer in Punjab Police, who is quite happy to turn a blind eye to the drug traffic along with his higher officials, till one day it comes too close home.He finds that his brother is also a drug victim which changes his nature and starts action to stop drug usage in Punjab.

4) Dr Preet Sahni (Kareena Kapoor Khan), who runs a rehab clinic, becomes the other strong salutary influence on Sartaj.Sartaj's brother joins in her rehab.Thus both of their lives take a drastic turn.

These 4 stories interlink where all of them showcases serious drug issues in Punjab,

Plus Points: 1)Performances: This movie has brilliant performances by all the four actors.Everyone deserves a award for their hardwork and passion to do these roles.Out of 4, Shaahid as Tommy and Alia as Mary stands out and deserves a lot of applause.

2)Screenplay and Direction: Udta Punjab has some moments which really showcased reality of drug usage.Screenplay is very good with balancing 4 stories equally.Climax is interesting with four stories interlinking.Direction by Abhishek Chaubey is very good and deserves applause for selecting such reality based theme.

3)Music: Music is rocking and as Tommy role is rockstar movie is filled with interesting rocking BGM.Songs are also very good.Lyrics are meaningful.

Minus Points: 1)Duration: This movie's duration is 2hr 28 min.I think this movie would look much better with bit less duration.

So Udta Punjab is good attempt on reality based drug theme with brilliant performances and great moments in its screenplay.

My rating 7.25/10

Movie portrays the drug problem that Punjab is facing these days, it shows the impact of this drug dealing on lives of four different people: a policeman ASI, a migrant worker from bihar, a doctor and a Punjabi Rock-star. What's Good: -Lead stars giving awesome performance, Diljit Dosanjh making the best bollywood debut of this year. -Powerful dialogues. -You'll able to relate the people, the situation, the dialogues if you have visited the present Punjab. -Gives out social messages by showing the reality of Stars like Tommy Singh and politicians.

What's Not:

-Too much Punjabi being a Bollywood movie. -Climax is not up to the mark. Disappointing. -Too much offensive at times.

Our Ratings: Story: ★★★★★★★☆☆☆ 7/10 Music: ★★★★★★★★☆☆ 8/10 Direction, editing and screenplay: ★★★★★★★☆☆☆ 7/10 Star Performances: ★★★★★★★★★★ 10/10 Overall: ★★★★★★★★☆☆ 8/10

Final Verdict: It's a must watch in theater not only because movie is damn good but also to ensure that movies like this release in future, for this it's important that Udta Punjab do well at the box office.

There are parts where the language seems to play the tricky part because of repeated abuses. It would be a great thing if Anurag compromised a bit with the abuses so that the film will reach the audience it was meant to. The Music of the movie sucks after first half. I appreciate Sudip Sharma and Abhishek Chaubey, the writers of the movie but I feel the director Chaubey missed the opportunity to make it interesting. There are a few dull moments in the second half, but the climax packs a punch. The way the worlds of a cop, a heroin addict, a rock star and a doctor intersect is cleverly shown. Story is good but the music, dialogues and direction is quite unpalatable. Udta Punjab does not manage to fly high.

You should go watch it. Overall an average movie with a good story. My rating for this movie is 3.5/5.

UDTA PUNJAB is worth the hype. And not in terms of all the bad things said about it, it's genuinely an eye opener. It talks about the drug scenario in the youth of Punjab in a very relevant and realistic way. Following the three disclaimers initially, film is a pure truth under the camouflage of fiction.

UDTA PUNJAB revolves around the four lead characters connected with the substance abuse. Tommy Singh (Shahid Kapoor) is so high, under his fading success that you can't guess what he will do next. He is the direct result of what we consume and idolize. The persona, the crass, the love for hate, Tommy has it all. Shahid Kapoor's skin deep Tommy is a must watch. And so is Alia Bhatt. A Bihari migrant worker trying to make her life better, ends up in an unexpected mess. She takes you just by one strike, down and out. Alia Bhatt is not a pleasant surprise in such a different part, but an emerging talent which might level out all other to the ground. See it to believe it! Preet (Kareena Kapoor Khan) is a Doctor working at rehabilitation for the addicts is good and bold in her approach. She looks more bright with here curious eyes and that connects. And Sartaj Singh (Diljit Dosanjh) is a cop stuck between money and wrong. He is so true and innocent till his core and from there on what we see is solid performance. What a debut!

UDTA PUNJAB is choppy at places, but I love the transitions with the structure. The edit is not much to talk about, but it sets a pace with gripping background music. Second half is bit slow and few things looks like losing control. Songs are good and my personal favorite is Ikk Kudi… It's still there, humming somewhere.

Characters speaks out from real life. And Punjab is captured in such a realism, thank god, no mustard fields this time. Language is well taken care off, it's very true to the way we speak. And this is the most important aspect of UDTA PUNJAB for me, its authenticity! The unconventional story telling might not be for everyone, but it's intriguing. Technically UDTA PUNJAB is not in its best form which itself is a way to take story forward. Cheers to Abhishek Chaubey for this.

UDTA PUNJAB is neither a great film, not a path-breaking technical scorer. It's a mirror which some wanted to smash before we could see. The struggle has paid off with somewhat shady and choppy, but reality is stark. Let there be reflections!
