Very well executed

SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

The first must-see film of the year.

now this movie is a perfect example of a historical movie.the depictions in the movie are really soul wrenching and it achieves its goal of coming a full circle by threading together all the characters and events introduced along the time line which seem almost unrelated till the end of the movie.Loved the spectrum of human love depicted the love of a patriot for his country,of a husband for his wife,of a brother for his sister which are contrasted by hate loathe and oppression .there are many who don't agree as it can be seen by the ratings but the flak received by this movie for its gore and patriarchal approach don't seem valid to me as that was the truth of that era. in the end it is a must watch movie

This movie destroy the main plot of the 1971 liberation war.They only give importance on rape rather than the main story.I thought they will show lots of things they Pakistani did with Bangladesh that time but their story make me disappointed.Songs are very low quality.Only i can say every rape scene was perfect.Its the only good things of this movie.They show some fake story which wasn't possible that time.anyway i will give only 1 out of 10.Please don't spoil next time about any countries history.You took good actors but the story wasn't good at all.Sometime i lost on the story that where i m.Moreover some shot were really funny.

"A dark masterpiece"! That is all what I can say about this movie. A ruthless, cruel, violent graphical depiction of the almost forgotten 1971 genocide happened in East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) by Pakistani Army where almost 3 million people were killed and 4 lakh women were raped. It is hard to believe this is Mrityunjay Devvrat's debut film! This movie is not for the faint hearted, the "A" really means something here. Forget about the other horrific torture on human being, sudden scenes like two pakistani soldiers are casually shooting cows as they loose a bet or the captured women prisoners are thrown out from the trucks like unused materials will send shiver down your spine. It is unthinkable how absolute power can bring us down so low and human can perform such unthinkable acts to other fellow human being in the name of country, religion, language. I have never seen such brutal and explicit depiction of rape after "Bandit Queen", a weapon used by pakistani Army to destroy the morale of common men. Indranil, Raima,Tilottoma were OK, Victor was impressive in a small role and Farooq Seiq was very good as an undercover leader of one of the Muktiyodha(Freedom figher) gang. RIP Farooq Seikh sir, we will miss you. However for me the superstars were Rafiq and his sister Kausar (I forgot to note their actual names, sorry about that), the protective brother and elder sister, what a performance they have given! And yes, Pavan malhotra as the cruel Pakistani general is really outstanding, he, in some cases reminded me of Stoph Waltz who played the infamous SS Col. Hans Landa in the movie "Inglorious Basterds". In the movie we have three stories running in parallel (Raima-Indranil, a journalist and his wife whose lives were massacred by the Pak army, a brother and sister who are the only survivors in their village and Victor who is trying to lead his villagers to a safe place and of course the freedom movement) which finally will merge. The background score was also fine. This movie is not for the masses, so it will definitely not do a good business in box office, but certainly will be appreciated in many forums. 8/10 from me.

I praise producer and director Mr. Mritunjay Devvrat for choosing this issue but can't even say a good thing about the film. All visualization and emotions remained in directors mind only. Screenplay and dialogues are pathetic. If you don't know about the backdrop of this film then you wont be able to find out the reason behind every things happening. You wont get touched with a single scene even. Subject is so dark that I was apprehensive about watching the film but promo and trailer pulled me to the theater but I got very disappointed with the final product. Such type of mistake often happens when one person holds two biggest post, producer and director and even first timer. Then you never realizes that when you have crossed the thin line between confidence and over confidence . Director is so obsessed with some typical metaphors that he did too much, i.e every person died while keeping their eyes open, suddenly rain and thunder appears for a dramatic scene, for this purpose he does not mind to keep the continuity intact. Scene opens in day and transforms into night. He has shown only one Pak Army Camp and they use cinematic lights to light there camp!!? What type of camp this was? Key source of light is Lantern in a scene but lighting of scene is so bad that you don't feel the need of lantern. Performance wise all actors are just OK. Music slows down the film especially which has Bengali lyrics.
