1962: The War in the Hills

If u are an army fan u will be disappointed to the core. The director lost an opportunity to make a great series. Battle of rezang-la is an event which could have easily been made on the lines of Band of Brothers, could have tried at least. Secondly, not using original names and character again keeps it away from being realistic.

And at last Indian industries' forever love for involving unnecessary drama in every war series is beyond explanation. A war movie must include war emotions of a soldier which makes it realsitic and engaging.

Poor direction, okay acting, poor dialogues. Somehow I managed to watched the 1st episode in hope that it's just the plot building and it would get better later. But, 2nd episode is super slow as well. I guess the director needs to understand the difference between tv serial and season. The director got lost between between romance and war. It's not worth spending 6-7 hours to watch it. Sorry!!

The strongest side of this series is the script. In this series based on the true incident, on one hand, the glimpse of the private life of the soldiers is shown.

The human side is shown. At the same time, India-China has shown fierce war on the other side. Director Mahesh Manjrekar and writer Charudatta Aacharya have been successful in maintaining interest by connecting the episode.

The screenplay of Charudatta Acharya is mainly divided into India-China skirmishes, political compulsions, and the personal life of the soldiers.

The narration uses the narration of Major Suraj Singh's wife Shagun Singh (Mahi Gill), who tells her Millennial grandchildren and grandchildren about the story of the war and the turmoil in the personal life of C-Company jawans Is telling about.

The early episodes of 1962 The War In The Hills have a slow edge and pace, but the last four episodes pick up the rhythm and the series starts engaging.

Had the series been made in fewer episodes, the result would have been more impressive, as the personal life events of the jawans are very filmy and taut. They slow down the pace of 1962 The War In The Hills series.

Starcast and language make the series a bit weak. If you like war drama 1962- The War in the Hills will not disappoint you.

The movie is primarily a filmy drama style love story in which space was created for war. Honestly i watched 3/4th of story on FF and only watched the war story which was actually shortend and overlooked. This could have been such a great attempt if that stupid Radha-kishan drama wasnt included. I gave 5 star only for the Abhay deol side of story and excellent war creation.

Totally Disappointing. I survived upto 4th episode.
