Thappad

Shows beautifully that women themselves can get empowered and get respect when they value themselves. It is a little slow otherwise would deserve higher ratings

Thematically this movie is very relatable n prevalent , so it would touch "human" soul for sure. It is more of an experience re experienced on screen....all the actors did Justice to their respective roles.

The movie could have been a bit faster.All the characters portrayed were extraordinarily good including the MIL which usually doesn't happen in reality when her son does wrong to her DIL. No overdramatic scenes were thrusted upon. Overall a very good movie which makes us recap n rethink about the role a woman plays in her own house,, in the society , sacrificing her SELF silently though being the BACKBONE of the family.

'Thappad' is actually better than most of the Bollywood movies we usually appreciate. Seeing movies like 'October' or 'Piku' having a rating of 7.5 and 7.6 respectively and movies like 'Uri' a rating of 8.4 genuinely makes me realize that the Indian audience doesn't make sense. Ever. That's why our movies don't do any good internationally. Because the audience here is more in love with propaganda than actually the movie and its technique. To praise 'Thappad' I just can simply say, it's the best Bollywood movie I've seen since October (2018). As an old guy of Bollywood, I can assure people that we don't usually get such well written, performed, act or shot movies that basically a good movie needs to be. With Article 15, last year Anubhav Sinha already set a landmark of Bollywood films but 'Thappad' is even better with fewer cliches. It's not just a movie of women empowerment or feminism. The way this movie portrays relationships I don't remember if I've ever seen such in Bollywood. The story is first and foremost about a woman protesting about that she can't be beaten by her husband even a slap, or even for once. The performance of Tapsee Pannu here is as good as Kristen Dunst in 'Melancholia' and that's a huge compliment. Also, I can't forget but appreciate the performance of Pavail Gulati. It doesn't matter if a man to a woman or a woman to man or a kid to kid, you can't ever beat anybody for anything. And that's a fact. (8.5/10)

This film deserves an 8 but I am generous with 10. Thrice my reviews which got more than 100 likes got deleted. Must have offended the parents who consider daughters as somebody else's property and sons as true heirs.

The film is well acted n directed. It is for the first time that an Indian movie has dealt with a subject about patriarchal mindset which has this chalta hai ( it's ok for females to be subjugated) attitude.

According to the national crime report, most murders happen between couples who r not able to divorce cos of the medieval mindset that marriages needs to be preserved until death, no matter even if it's an abused one.

Not all men are alike true but that's not the purpose of the story to show..... The right questions are asked and subtly answered. The lawyer's role was weak in acting. Everyone else was phenomenal.
