Audience Member A-One Manoranjan and Discovery Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Fine example of a modern surrealism out of India, but the bleak landscape is also beautifully shot and it carries a relevant social message. This is a more mature example of Bollywood film-making. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Vishnu (Abhay Deol) is at a crossroads in his life. He doesn't really want to go into business with his father selling his hair oil for the rest of his life so when he gets a chance to drive a worn out beat up 1942 truck to a destination 6 days away for his uncle he jumps at the chance. Along the journey he meets up with a boy who wants to tag along with him (where's his parents?!) so he lets him but it's not soon after that they have trouble with the truck. He can't get it started again so the boy walks off, with Vishnu thinking that he won't come back. The next day the boy (Mohammed Faisal) comes back bringing a mechanic named Om (Satish Kaushik) to help him out. To say Vishnu is a hard guy to like is an understatement. We, the viewer are constantly thinking this guy will never be liked because of the actions he does continually to the boy and the mechanic. However the mechanic gets the truck to start and finds out that Vishnu is actually driving a moving cinema truck with a projector, films, and even a screen. It is the rest of the film where we see these three people with 3 different personalities making a journey driving to Vishnu's destination and meeting different people and embracing life along the way (and showing a movie or two along the way!) This was a pleasant enough feeling movie set in India. It's the kind of movie where people learn about themselves and expose their mind and way of thinking to different thoughts and perspectives. Worth your time if you're wanting to see a film that probably a lot of people wouldn't see or get a chance to see. Not life changing but a nice little film. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member a well made movie and quite enjoyable. good humor in between and acting by all was first rate. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member India's own Cinema Paradiso. This one will either end up being a pointless exercise or a very satisfying watch just like the art cinema of yore. A genre in Bollywood which has gone missing. Some amazing BGM by Michael Brook, very good performances by Satish Kaushik, the kid and Tanishta, very good cinematography of the Indian desert terrain and a very likeable cinema truck, a story left to your own intepretation at most places made this a very pleasant watch for me. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member A pleasant watch, Abhay Deol and the rest of the cast do a fine job in their respective roles. It is visually beautiful, the movie itself is nothing special, do watch it once though. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Read all reviews
