Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express Sant Mani Ratnam's re-telling of the epic attempts a classic subversion, with seriously mixed results. Raavan is more miss than hit. Rated: 2/5 Apr 12, 2019 Full Review Simon Foster sbs.com.au This melodramatic mishmash fails to deliver. Rated: 2.5/5 Oct 30, 2017 Full Review Raam Tarat Future Movies UK Controversial in some aspects (the God factor) but nevertheless something great for the makers to get their auteur teeth stuck into. Rated: 3/5 Oct 30, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Melodramatic. Beautifully and creatively shot. A little crazy. And with a bit of a water fetish. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Pure eye candy! It's Exotic! It's Sensual! It's Primal! Songs engage your heart and ears! This is absolutely My favorite Bollywood film! Fantastic action adventure! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Best Bollywood movie I have seen by far! I think it would have been better without the music. The story and acting is phenomenal! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Landscapes of the film are beautiful. Interpretation of actors is different from the style of classic Indian movies. The action takes place rapidly. A Indian movie that I watched with pleasure. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Had potential, but very disappointing. Could have been an edgy examination on injustice, or a good crime/adventure-drama. However ruined by the usual Bollywood features of trying to turn everything into a romantic drama and the all the singing and dancing. A bit hard to take a movie seriously when you have a dramatic moment, and all of a sudden the hero/heroine starts singing! Totally ruins the flow of the movie, and makes it overly long. Plot also drifts, and does so from early on. A tighter, more focussed movie with no useless singing or dancing scenes would have been about 90 minutes, instead of 125 or so, and would have been a lot more enjoyable. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member A different film from the usual Bollywood movies...Abhishek...is awsome! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
