Mission Mangal

Everyone know Akshay Kumar is if the finest actor in Bollywood but this time he's choosen wrong script.... Vida Balan man is shining but movie is very poor

1) A great story with irrelevant and soulless narration 2) Huge lag and not into the story anytime 3) Great scientists characters used as joker Don't waste your money

This movie proves again that you do not need extreme big budgets to make a decent movie, replicating the point made in the movie's true story as well. Very good graphics that convey the storyline and the finale. Hats off to Akshay Kumar for once again deciding to do a movie that is meaningful and sensible. The true story of this mission is as amazing as it's scientists. Power to them and the belief that it was possible. India became the first country to successfully launch a satellite mission to Mars in its first try! The movie is a must watch for that itself but it's entertaining as much!

It's too much into characters, showing scientists doing all kinds of useless works, and not much about the mission itself.

There is an overlying sense of artificiality in the way Mission Mangal (Mars Mission) has been made, with abundant textbook techniques to mix comedy and drama into the proceedings of a vastly technical subject such as an organization's attempt to send a satellite on the Martian orbit. It ends up as a series of cringe-worthy sequences. For a film that demands realism as the only single factor, Mission Mangal strays away from it right from the word go! as we see the actors fooling around in office and wherever they go. It's a good idea by writer R Balki to refer home science as the solution to issues hampering space travel but the way they have been dramatized makes the discerning viewer coil in anger and disgust. Melodrama takes the limelight in the film that can be best characterized as a lackluster take on a historic feat, that only gets worse as you proceed watching it, eventually leading you to a specific scene where a gang of inebriated Isro scientists brawl in a metro car all of which reeks of self-righteousness. Mission Mangal is a mockery of the very subject that it pays homage to. There's no reason to spend any money on this and I would instead recommend going through the Wikipedia page of the actual mission instead. TN.
