Dangal Audience Reviews

BeSummers Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.
Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Curt Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.
esallee Okay, so, I'm an American who has no ties to the Indian Film Industry nor to Bollywood but I love to watch their movies. I've religiously watched Bollywood for the past 3 years and I have not seen a movie so balanced with family and sport and female empowerment than this one. Maybe 'Mary Kom' but even that didn't give me the chills that 'Dangal' produced. Geeta and Babita stole my heart, especially when they were younger and just embarking on their journey as wrestlers. The most poignant scene, for me, comes when they were still in their youth, learning a lesson of gratitude that they were blind to before. Indian films, in general, make you more aware of how important family is and after watching this it made me think of things differently that my mom had done to me when I was younger, all in the desire to make me a stronger woman. I love this movie so much for that message, the message that a woman can be just as strong, if not stronger, than any man or foe she is against. I don't want to spoil anything for anyone so just go watch the movie and realize for yourself how amazing it truly is.
fahimay Looking out to watch this blockbuster hit for a long time, I got my chance only a few weeks back. I had faith that Aamir Khan, the certified perfectionist would definitely do a flawless job. We have seen many father characters on screen showering their love on their daughters. But the love and adoration shown here is distinctively exemplary. As the movie starts, we get the feeling that the father Mahavir Singh (Aamir Khan) is imposing his desires on his daughters. But as the movie progressed, I started wishing that girls get such supportive fathers who are dedicated to bringing out the best in their daughters and show them to the world. The daughters, both younger and older versions have given a splendid performance. The younger girls portrayed a naive appearance in the beginning that we wonder how the transformation to heavyweight wrestlers was possible. But I realized that putting on weight to become hefty is not necessary, just a tremendous amount of stamina and willpower. The wrestling scenes have been worked in good detail. More that being a sports movie, this movie spells of female empowerment in the real sense and the forward thinking of a father that a girl's life should not be spent in the kitchen alone. Hats off to the real Mahavir Singh, Geeta Phogat and Babita Phogat for being such grand role models.
alvaro-a-quesada-558-141800 Amir Khan is back with a Bollywood vengeance -- 1st Class Artist. If you didn't catch him in another film named "PK", I suggest you do -- amazing film as well. "Dangal" inspires hope and courage, and it is very relatable, and that is the currency of the heart, and this film has a lot of heart. Superb film. Thank you for inspiring us to fight our obstacles.
cordobaus The movie depicts even minor details of the hardships an Indian father has to face when he wants his daughter to live on the edge and enjoy a prosperous life. Movies shows the real glory of each and every character.
