The story shows lots of ground reality. Each artist have played their part really well. Amazing acting. If you don't like bloodshed or physical violence, you will like it.

What could have been a good script is just wasted with mediocrity in all departments in this movie. It's also amazing how the threshold of good has been become so low by looking at the reviews. It's just an indication that how either people don't know/watched many good movies OR there have been so many bad movies in kannada industry, even if there is an attempt to experiment is considered amazing.

Movies based on reality have to walk the tight rope of not being a documentary. This movie fails at being a good movie but neither close to a realistic documentary.

The acting is mediocre, dialogues are ordinary, Screenplay is mediocre and movie is just dragged on unnecessarily. When will directors learn that just putting some facts together, adding some 1-dimensional moralistic tones, making shallow characters devoid of reality will never make a movie good I spite of picking a real message oriented story. Just holding a flag of "I am telling a story of injustice" does not equate to a good movie or any other art form for that matter.

I just "hope" directors and audience watch good movies beyond their language and country(for that matter, should follow art beyond movies) to upgrade their sensibilities. I would rather watch a no Brainerd entertainer than watch a message oriented movie just for the sake of it. Everyone intellectually knows about corruption and bad things which happen in our society and still go on except for few great souls. I don't believe movies should try to preach and I don't think can change society. But I believe they can make people atleast think and feel about stuff. So make a movie with heart, then your message will be a by product automatically. Start with a message then movie will not have neither heart and mind, just a clichéd kindergarten play minus cuteness of little kids and hence unbearable.

I wonder how many rhetoric, below par movies would have been avoided if directors were objective about their own talent and their output. Alas, that's not the world we live in.

Movie content is definitely good but direction story telling is very bad, I can understand they are trying to make it natural but in attempt of that, they made movie so boring so much stretched,

it could have been an half and hour short film, which is stretched to 2hr:21min,

Casting is good but can clearly see they were not be used properly,

It feels like some fresh writer and director have been watching the movies ,who is ambitious and inspired by intentions had attempted to make a movie by themselves without any proper experience in movie making or presenting skills..

Writer and director immaturely tried to express each good angle or situations presenting childishly like some serial... No entertainment just like a documentary attemptom to be a movie, though it could have been made moderate entertaining movie inspite of maintaining naturality what they have attempted.

The fight for justice is as interesting as it can get in this movie. A must watch for Officers, Advocates, Farmers and for people who want to watch quality movies with interesting content.

Feels like the movie is made just for the sake of it. The story in itself is very plain, circling around corruption. The screenplay and story is lackluster, making it like a documentary. This is a movie with a lot of potential but sadly felt so boring and dragged. You can't just show court proceedings, day in and day out ,like some personal journal.

The movie making feels very amateurish, the kind of audience it caters expects better quality, not such tepid work The cast is such a talented group and this movie feels like a waste of such good troupe.

All in all, good start, but a long way to go.

This movie inspired by real life situations cannot be made any more realistically than this. The story line is simple, straight and does not waver from its flow even for a minute.

The very title HOPE indicates that the film hopes for something. Yes true to that intension, the story takes us through various characters which are intertwined in different ways.

The film has some strong characters. A story like this has never been made before. Overall good performance by the artists. Climax is the best part of the film.

I really enjoyed the film. Every scene in the film seems relatable to the things we keep on seeing and hearing in news and media too. Very well presented..Must watch.

All the artists in the film have done an excellent job. The story is very gripping till the end. The female lead character played by Shwetha Srivatsav has a roller coaster of emotions throughout. Must watch for all officials.

This movie is a masterpiece as it is about the dirty tricks and finer details of our state posting system which makes it a worthy watch. Trust me if you are a fan of realistic story telling, just go for it.

The film perfectly shows the current situation in India. Inspired from true events mixed with a fictional storyline, Hope is a must watch if you know anything about the corrupt officers transfer methods.

Good star cast and they did justice to their characters. Climax is very surprising and unpredictable. Kannada films should come up with more content like this.

The subject is new and very informative. Lawyers will relate to the subject really well. Court room drama is very realistic. Must watch for family and officials.

This movie is very inspiring and i think this movie is a must watch for anyone who is planning to study law as it shows us such a raw side of the government.

There are a lot of good parts in the film. Music and BGM is amazing. Very clean screenplay displayed. The director has done justice to the current situation in Karnataka.

This is certainly a highly entertaining film that takes a look at the career of KAS Officers. It features the real struggle of an officer who gets prematurely transferred because of corruption.

Movie is awesome! It's based on the bitter truth of our Indian politics. Don't compare with other movies just enjoy it. Awesome acting. Good casting. The climax was unpredictable.

Direction, Acting, and good performance by every single character is quite impressive. Keeping you thrilled till the end. A must watch. Looks like a lot of research went on behind the making of the film.

Very emotional subject for me as I too experienced this situation in my department. Hope is something we should all have and that's what the film gives us. Must watch !

Very amazing screenplay and characters given justice their roles. Both me and wife enjoyed it to fullest. Well made. It's a good depiction of the reality of government officials in India.

Big fan of Shwetha Srivatsav. She has played the role of a KAS officer. The drama is very well shot by the director. Plight of farmers and land losers is shown well in the film.

The first half is quite interesting and introduces all the characters. The second half keeps the audience at the edge of their seats. Very interesting subject.

This movie sends a very strong message abt the injustices that happens to the government officials, it also shows us the efforts and hard work of the civil servants...

BGM is the most astounding part of this movie. One should go and experience it in theatre. Many parts of the film were interesting. Must watch for music enthusiasts.
