Acensbart Excellent but underrated film

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

indevgoyalbba I was waiting for this movie from a long time now am very excited for this movie. You can say I am crazy for this movie. Everyone should watch this movie. Its not a movie it is a Motivational thought.Cricket is my passion but in the captaincy of MS Dhoni cricket become my love. So no doubt I am the fan of M S Dhoni. Sushant Singh Rajput played a beautiful role in this movie. people comparing Sushant with Dhoni but please everyone understand Dhoni is Dhoni no one else can get his place.

namashi_1 Sushant Singh Rajput's talent comes full circle with 'M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story'. As the cricket legend, Sushant gives his all in a performance, that comes across as an embodiment, rather than an impersonation. 'M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story' explores the life of Mahendra Singh Dhoni, right from his journey from being a ticket collector, to a trophy collector and the world-cup-winning captain of the Indian Cricket Team.Director Neeraj Pandey chooses a worthy true-story as his latest project, but succeeds only partially. The film is too long at 3-hours & the Writing is never remarkable. Of course, Dhoni is a man made of pure merit, who's seen tremendous struggle, before emerging into a phenomenon. But, 'The Untold Story' has an average Screenplay, that arrests in parts.Pandey & Dilip Jha's Screenplay is alright. Despite choosing to tell the story of a real-life euphoric figure, the Writing never soars. It works in parts & works best when it sees its protagonist off the pitch. Also, the Dialogue are surprisingly weak. Definitely, a much stronger Screenplay was the need of the day! Pandey's Direction is decent. Cinematography & Editing are fair. Music by Various Artists, is melodious.Performance-Wise: Sushant is great, no two options on that! Of the rest of the cast, Anupam Kher is remarkable as Dhoni's father, delivering a genuinely heartfelt performance from start to end. Rajesh Sharma is wonderful as Banerji, who's the first to realize Dhoni's potential. Kumud Mishra excels as well. Bhumika Chawla as Dhoni's Sister is nice & its refreshing to see her on-screen after so long. Kiara Advani as Dhoni's Wife & Disha Patani as Dhoni's Girlfriend, are strictly okay.On the whole, 'M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story' rests on Sushant Singh Rajput's genuine talent to sail through.

sameer khan Well people let me tell you something very important about each one of you who comment or posted their replyGood thing to know : 1. Every struggled person who realizes how hard he/she is been through his/her life will certainly make him/her tough and M.S. Dhoni is one of them but lets just admit he has a passion for cricket and so as everyone one of you has a passion for something, difference is if anyone has a guts to follow his passion and achieve all his goals. 2. Well it made me search too on google not because finding how she looks and all but because the girl in the movie acted simple which make us to think this is something sad has happened to someone who is good enough to follow his passion and bring glory to our country. Well i will not talk about human nature over here what people thinks or do at some situation which is what happening over here but if someone told you about it and no movie would have been made then I guess 70% wouldn't have been so sorry about it. 3. Lets just assume that happens 80% of what we have seen in this movie but the producers should have selected the wrong series where both met in 2005 in a flight and India vs Pakistan match was ongoing. Let me tell you the result India(2)- Pakistan(4). India lost that series. Now, quoting dialogue from a movie "Don't bring anything for Valentine just win the series". Well if this movie was to make someone inspired then at least producer should have thought about changing the series timeline. 4. My Thinking the movie: Movie was below average and was rushing as if director's or producer's main focus was to show "There is always a woman in a success of every man" but I didn't see anything if expand the facts(Losing series). 5. Overall : MS Dhoni for me is a man who made us proud by winning both format world cup. He is not some heart-broken silly person lets be real now. He has a passion for cricket and works hard enough for it. I am not only proud of MS dhoni but I am saluting to all those guys who has a passion and work for it really hard until they get it because I am not that person to have guts like that. His struggle and toughness made him so successful since he had to deal with lots of stupid selectors or Cricket Board. My real life story sucks more than this, the thing is there is no movie made on my life. Now see how following passion gifts you with delights. Go and follow your Dream! Your story will also be shown to the world. **Note **: Now when I say passion or dream this shouldn't had to be like "I want to be best programmer in my company" don't lie to yourself, i am not saying this can't be your dream but I know people lie to themselves sometimes and that's where you become the biggest failure more than me. Thank you Guys! Be real Be you!

rohancnaidu I have been someone who grew into the enigma of MS Dhoni. It started with a lot off apprehension on his unconventional methods and unexpected tactical decisions as captain. But then luck can be once or twice, genius has consistency. But what set Dhoni apart was not his cricketing prowess. It was his mental strength while pulling of those last over rescue operations day in and day out. The nerves of steel shown while defending small scores. And the ability to bring out the best from young players. So as a fan of both MS & Neeraj Pandey what I expected was the movie would explore this inner journey of the Man. What he speaks to himself while chasing 19 off 6 balls. What does he tell his bowlers during the nail biting finishes. How does he make decisions? by elimination? by intuition? or something else? Something that Chak De India - Movie did brilliantly. It misses the crucial point of how he was appointed the captain. How did the selectors make that decision. No where did we get to see how the character evolved as a leader. The movie turns out to be plain vanilla in terms of its treatment. Borders on too much self indulgence at times. Is painfully long. And as rightly put by my friend Bharath Reddy Ravuru the second half seems like a highlight package of his popular innings. I somehow could not connect with the character and root for him which i did say in case of Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, Paan Singh Tomar or for that matter even Sultan in spite of knowing the obvious climax. Only saving grace are the honest performances. Otherwise nothing great.
