No wonder 83 felt to me like a certain way of life that we seem to be unable to hold on to now. A piece of nostalgia that made me face up to a steady sense of loss of basic human goodness and dignity.

There are a lot of matches and players to cover, but Khan skates energetically through it all, sketching tactical shifts in creaseside exchanges between batsmen and deploying economic character riffs.

Rated: 4/5

83 is the kind of film that undercuts its own drama with tone-deaf moments of humourits like a Marvel movie, but much worse.

In recreating the magic and mood of the year that Indian cricket team won its maiden World Cup, the film-maker not only brings back yesteryear legends to the fore but also reiterates the soothing power of nostalgia.

Rated: 4/5

Was a bit corny and very long with most of the scenes playing the game of cricket that I still dont understand. Many English subtitles as most of the audio is not in English. But it passed the time

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars
