Leslie Felperin Guardian Director Milan Chams’s script, co-written with Giriraj Ghimire, is chock full of cliches and cornball sentimentality – which will possibly make this reassuringly familiar for its intended audience. Rated: 2/5 Nov 8, 2023 Full Review Rich Cline Shadows on the Wall It remains exciting and involving even if rah-rah heroics and hideous villainy eliminate nuance. Indeed, it's clear that acclaimed Nepalese director Milan Chams set out to make a film that honoured these fierce soldiers. Rated: 3/5 Nov 14, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
