Jimmy Cage Jimmy Cage Movie Reviews (YouTube) The strong and very emotion stirring black and white approach of JAI BHIM can be forgiven because of its important subject matter. And then its a really well-produced, if somewhat lengthy, powerful and gripping courtroom thriller. Rated: 8/10 Apr 7, 2022 Full Review Manjusha Radhakrishnan Gulf News (UAE) Suriya's film is a masterpiece that inspires. Dec 16, 2021 Full Review Manoj Kumar R The Indian Express Suriya inhabits the role of a firebrand advocate with ease. It is as if he's not just performing the lines written by the director, but believes in every word and gesture he delivers in this film. Rated: 4/5 Dec 16, 2021 Full Review Saibal Chatterjee NDTV Suriya, stepping out from his comfort zone, slips into the skin of activist-advocate Chandru, who made a career out of standing up for landless tribals before becoming a judge. Rated: 3.5/5 Dec 16, 2021 Full Review Ranjani Krishnakumar Film Companion Jai Bhim is a solid film held together by craftly writing, thoughtful filmmaking, restrained performances and a true incident of the justice system restoring hope. Dec 16, 2021 Full Review Haricharan Pudipeddi Hindustan Times Suriya headlines a powerful film about fighting for the oppressed and police brutality. Dec 16, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Jerod S It's too long and belabors some moments - but the caste system being challenged in the court room is powerful. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/28/25 Full Review Ishara L I was a bit scared about tackling an almost 3 hour legal movie. I had to swallow my trepidation. From the start I was drawn into this very emotional, brutal and heartwrenching true tale. This is not only a court-house drama, it shows the brutality of a police force that puts standing and results above the lifes of humans. And the scenery we are shown is truly shocking. As shocking as Schindler's List. No punches are pulled, we are shown fully what these innocent people went through. The actions of the police force really are disgusting. It is also brilliantly shot and made. My biggest gripes come down to a cultural difference. (I didn't like the songs in it, but I recognize that's how movies are made in India so I do not include it in my judgement of the film). I had no idea that such things happened. But, I am grateful that a movie can teach me these things, even if they were shocking to witness. My thanks go out to the makers of this movie and I hope it will bring a positive change in policies and actions of those in charge. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/25 Full Review Mayuresh S Phenomenal movie!! An absolute must watch! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/05/25 Full Review S R I saw it since it was on the IMDB 250 list and I expect it only resonated with the India population more so than anywhere else. It did have a good story, but I was disappointed with the melodrama and its over the top suffering / injustice. I enjoyed seeing a dramatic court in India. Perhaps it could be made into a more approachable feature. Saw on Amazon. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 12/27/24 Full Review Shankar V Not a Bad movie. Making was good. Actors did a fair job, especially the lady charector acted well. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/26/24 Full Review Priyan B One of the best courtroom drama ever 9/10 Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/25/24 Full Review Read all reviews
