The setting is a posh residential boys school. A play is about to be staged. The lead actor is a shy, innocent, young boy, who adores his male teacher. Since he prefers theater n nature to sports, his sexual orientation is often questioned. Hes regularly bullied by two other boys n one night, they brutally rape him. What happens thereafter? The climax will shock u. Full marks to director vandana kataria for crafting a delicate but horrifying film. #Noblemen boasts of good performances by the entire cast. Thanks to #PVRcinemas for screening this film. Do watch it. Rating 3.5/5.
Watching this film took me back to my boarding school years in the 70.s in India on a hill station.
I was bullied a lot , for being fair, pretty...I relived my school days watching this..It was five years of hell...but I was good at sports.. We didn't have a teacher we could turn to that was kind..we lived in fear of them and the bullies...There were always threats to get your sister(in another school)for saying anything...We were 9 yrs old..there was sexual abuse, even by some teachers...we were thrashed and beaten up for no reason or something frivolous..This film has surfaced those scars again.. Watch this film as a Shakespeare film rather than expect a happy Bollywood ending where good scores over evil.. The good die and the tormented turn to becoming wicked .There is no justice.
To those suffering being bullied, defend your self somehow, seek help, speak to someone ..get out if you can...don't suffer in silence .. Don't scar yourself for life.. Watch this film and if you are bullying some one, recognise the damage you will cause ..you wouldn't want that to happen to you or your kids in the future.
The film is brilliantly acted and whilst I'm perplexed by the ending , I'm glad I came across it and watched it. Kunal Kapur shines and I wish We had such a teacher in my school days.

The movie was as confused as its main character. The plot although aiming for realism was far from it. Everyone has a breaking point even if they're innately bad. I don't think it's a good idea to mix victimisation with psychopathy. I'm utterly horrified by the movie and the way it portrayed humanity. I don't believe humanity can be this shallow, this cold. Even if it is, I don't want to be blatantly exposed to me. I'm scared to bring children into this world if this is what it is like.
This movie felt like a roller coaster of emotion, seeing the impact of bullying on the main character and his friends. Towards the middle, the main bully appears to have a change of demeanor, but after receiving a demoralizing call from his father, the bully acted out even more heinously.
This film was most painful in the final minutes and it left me feeling very sad. You observe the loss of innocence in the main character as well as the extremely poor decision making he exercises because he is so choked by fear.
While this movie was difficult to watch, I felt it was very well made. For example, this is the first movie review that I've ever done and likely the last. This movie was able to evoke very powerful, painful emotions in me. It left me feeling that all of our actions influence other people. It was painful for me to see the new headmaster as well, considering he had been part of the problem with perpetuating bullying. The world will be a better place and other peoples lives will be better, if we actively strive to love and show kindness and stand for truth. Hurting others and acting in selfishness damages others and can (in extreme situations like this movie) create monsters. This movie is a genuine tragedy.

Very hard to watch the abuse of a student in the school, but further, the resolution. Honestly, didn't make much sense. Maybe supposed to show the fear of exposure of being gay? I don't know, honestly, but was disappointing.
