Reviews
The Sam Bahadur movie got positive reviews from the audiences and critics. Near 1k people rated this movie 8.4 stars out of 10 stars IMDb, which are good reviews from audiences. Catherine Bray from The Guardian rated this movie 3 stars out of 5 stars and said “It’s a perennial problem for biopics; how to give events the momentum of fiction when the underlying narrative is fact. This leaves the film feeling like a demonstration of the variously attributed maxim that history is simply one damned thing after another.“
Tushar Joshi from India Today rated this movie 2.5 stars out of 5 stars and said “Sam Bahadur is a brave attempt, but it aimlessly meanders in most parts, trying to give us an insight into the life of one of the most revered and celebrated army officers. Perhaps, if the valiant Manekshaw had seen the film, he would have said, “It’s okay, sweetie! Better luck next time.”“
Saibal Chatterjee from NDTV rated this movie 3.5 stars out of 5 stars and said “It would be easy to describe Sam Bahadur as a Vicky Kaushal show because it is who dominates every major scene in the film. But without the fine balance that Meghna Gulzar strikes between ambition and restraint, neither the spirited central performance nor its emotional (and cinematic) payoff would have been quite as remarkable.“
Abhishek Srivastava from The Times of India rated this movie 3.5 stars out of 5 stars and said “‘Sam Bahadur’ endeavours to encapsulate the chequered career of a decorated Army officer who epitomized bravery and nationalism, leaving an indelible mark in the annals of the Indian Army as a larger-than-life persona. However, the film only partially succeeds in capturing those moments, lacking a cohesive portrayal of the protagonist’s illustrious journey.“
