Chaar Sahibzaade

A MUST WATCH MOVIE..!!! Its one of the most wonderful & efficiently made Movie in animation. It would be an example for many Film Makers to make such kind of movies with elaboration of History with truth. A lot of hard work is involved and i am happy to get an opportunity to view this film. Worth watching again and again..!!!! FANTASTIC..!!! The movie is so well made and no were was it commenting on any caste/creed or religion. It elaborates in a nutshell many of the happenings of Sikh history that many do not know about and i wish that this movie runs into the theaters for long as possible so as to through some light on the Truth and give an opportunity for the unseen public to watch this movie.

A very nicely made movie, good research done. Because the story is real, so nothing is made-up here - I know this because I've known this story since my childhood. So, I found this film to be all True.

About Animation: Considering the budget of this movie, it is very well done. But don't expect or compare it with Pixar or Disney movie. No movie in the history of Indian Cinema has stood up to Hollywood standards, so don't expect similar quality. But it's still great animation from Indian standards.

Now, Viewers: Of-course every Sikh must see it for their history but I feel the whole world should see this movie to know what Sikhs stood up against. It's available in English as well.

It's a courageous true story of real martyrs and the sacrifices they made for righteousness, devotion to their faith, and piety to "Waheguru" (God) for their unwavering strength.

Go see it with your family n kids and show it to your friends, they will be amazed!

The story of the 4 Sons of the 10th Sikh Guru is something every kid in Punjab has grown up with. So everyone in the audience already knows the 'plot' in a way. Still, this movie engrosses you, wraps you warmly in the lives of the Chaar Sahibzaadas, in the 17th-18th Century Punjab. It is an emotional ride. It Inspires you with the valor, Enrages you with the cruelty, Serenades you with the Kirtan and even makes you shed tears a few times. It relies heavily on the Narrative (done wonderfully by Om Puri) and the dialogue amongst the characters, specially the scenes at Sirhind involving the 2 younger Sons. For people who are not well versed with this episode of Sikh History, this movie can serve as a perfect 2 hour course.

Photo-Realistic Animation : it may not be really Impressive to the audience overexposed to world of Pixar, but it does the job gracefully. It was important for the characters to look like their pictures being carried over from centuries. So it worked perfectly well at that.

Thank you Harry Baweja, for a movie Full of Heart. Your relentless dedication towards the sensibilities of Sikhs, clearly shows in the handling of the crucial scenes, specially when they involved the Gurus. Hats Off !

Overall, this is one lovely movie, that can be enjoyed by the entire Family !

There are few words that can describe this film. It is a real eye opener. The story of the 4 Sons of DHAN DHAN SHRI GURU GOBIND SINGH JI. It follows their hardships, their courage and their honour and respect for their father, and their grandfather before them. Their pride of being SINGH, and their sacrifices. It is a very emotional film, and one that you can watch over and over again.

The portrayal of Guru Gobind Singh Ji is worthy of praise, as is the captivating nature of his CHAAR SAHIBZAADE. The energy and pace of the film captivates the audience and will evoke many emotional moments

DON'T MISS THIS FILM IT Truly is a MUST watch

The timing of Chaar Sahibzaade is excellent, given the extensive religious killings in the Middle-East. It is based on true events concerning advocates of religious freedom. These people courageously did whatever was necessary to restore what was wrongfully taken from the weak and oppressed. The theme is mostly about their training, and about the military forces against them. In these ways, it is a religious war movie.

It is animated, with fair-to-good foregrounds but very poor backgrounds. There is a feel of limited movement. The images of holy people are stills, since the makers considered it disrespectful to make cartoons of them (but the audio strategically keeps the flow).

The English subtitles exclude periods. The translators obviously catered to audiences of Sikhs, leaving in untranslated titles (such as Guru) and other religious and martial terms. Non-Indian audiences find it hard enough to read through the long names without all the foreign-language extras. Audience members who did not need subtitles were much more pulled. The narrated overview at the beginning aids understanding, even though it includes spoilers.

Although most NR movies are adult-oriented, this one shows the weapon attacks WITHOUT the gore or suffering. It has its battle scenes, executions, and corruption, but is hardly disturbing or offensive.

I recommend watching it, even though the art and linguistics have their problems. It expresses the need to personally battle injustice, rather than idly pray, meditate, and give in.
