  Deeper than a sentimental biography
  
  Gandhi is quite rightly one of the most famous people in the world, yet this film will be an education to your average person.

  This film is serious without much light relief, yet I was engaged in it all the way and somehow it wasn't the all-in heaviest film I've ever seen.

  This was an interesting insight in to Gandhi's life as a father and husband. The film was average.

  Very slow movie
  
  Too much of the movie was well known stuff about Gandhi's actions, with not enough about his relationship with his son.

  Thought the film was original in the sense it takes a different approach to Gandhi's life, in particular his relationship with his estranged son.

  Well worth the watch
  
  Worth spending two hours watching this film. Well acted and directed providing an alternative perspective to the well documented stories of Ghandiji.

  A new look at an old story
  
  We found this film touching-the old story of father and son, and famous father and overshadowed son--applied to someone who we all think of in epic terms.read more »
