Namrata Joshi Outlook A blatant copy with a contemporary Indian spin: it raises the contentious issue of army atrocities. But it's a highly facile critique, a lost chance. Rated: 2/4 Jan 29, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

Sarthak B No matter how much Rahul Bose, Kay Kay Menon and Deepak Dobriyal get praised for this, it's not enough. What terrifies me the most is that the topic addressed in this film is prevalent even today as it was at the time of release, maybe it got worse. Definitely worth watching and something to think about. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/11/23 Full Review fares g This must have been made on a highway, as that is where most accidents happen. Its so stupid i cant even begin to think of a worse movie. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Indian c Yes, I have watched "A Few Good Men". Yes, I have also watched "Shaurya" - and I know that it is heavily inspired by the Hollywood classic. It is easy to see the similarities between the two films - especially towards the end. The second half is definitely more intense, more powerful and infinitely better than the first, and Kay Kay Menon commands the screen in a show-stealing performance. I must also commend "Shaurya" for being different. For not being a shot-for-shot remake. At the same time, I cannot say this film is golden cinema either. The songs are all awful and consistently detract from the story. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/02/22 Full Review Audience Member Only for KK Menon- What a Phenomenal actor he is. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member heavily influenced by rob reiner's "a few good men" ..bt dat doesnt make it a terrific film...the hard efforts,the in depth study of d case tom cruise made in order to save d convict, is clearly missing here...instead rahul bose can b seen singing a song n cozying wid minisha....yet he won d case...the only terrific thing abt dis movie is KAY KAY MENON....steller performance....A GEM he is....!!! watch dis film for Kay Kay...!!! Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Thought it was a powerful story with good performances..should have got more accolade...does take some inspiration from some Hollywood movies...but doesn't in anyway reduce its own strengths...good watch Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
