Evengyny Thanks for the memories!

ShangLuda Admirable film.

Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

CIDMoosa The Man Who Knew Infinity - Although the scientist-as-superhero film genre is more than well-established by now through A Beautiful Mind, The Imitation Game and The Theory of Everything, This biopic of Srinivasa Ramanujan warrants a watch for the pure genius the leading man epitomized. A Fellow of the Royal Society and also Fellow of Trinity College - monumental attainments for an Indian with no formal training in mathematics - tips of the iceberg for the genius that Srinivasa Ramanujan was, the movie tries to capture his liaison with renowned mathematician G.H.Hardy and his life at the Cambridge university.The movie scores in its accurate rendering of the intellectual mathematics involved and the realities of academic antagonism; the historical and cultural skirmishes between Indian and English conducts and the side track of jingoists vs. pacifists. A Tamil movie with the same topic - Ramanujan was released one year earlier which dispensed more with the personal life and enlargement of the virtuoso.Having said that, Dev Patel was an out-and-out miscast for the role, given Ramanujan's short and stout physique and his Dravidian guises. Patel is sure a strange casting choice yet captures his appeal with integrity and passion and in some means, a heftier underdog akin to his breakout role in Slumdog Millionaire.Biopics in our country have apportioned mostly with sportsmen (Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, M.S.Dhoni, Mary Kom, Dangal, Paan Singh Tomar, Azhar) while undermining the scientists and intellectuals - it's a pity that we are still relishing on screen versions of delinquents like Gujarati Bootlegger Abdul Latif (Read Raees !) while the west is adapting our finer lives to silver screen !

bettycjung 5/12/18. Saw this in the theater. An excellently made movie about the legendary Ramunajan, a dirt-poor brilliant math genius who just happened to have been lucky enough to be discovered and then tutored by a renown British academic, G.H. Hardy. This movie shows just how precarious genius is in a world where wealth and class (in colonial India), and how Ramunajan's contributions to mathematics could well have been lost to obscurity. Worth catching.

sukethksrivatsan Considering the fact that I am a distant relative of the great Srinivasa Ramanujam,I really can't express extent of the justice which was done to him through this film.it is greatness like this which can is indefinable,it's a country like ours which mostly goes unrecognized owing to the great miraculous things we have achieved.this is a tale to tell and I am proud to be belonging to a country where this legend took breath.my family is very proud to have this movie about this esteemed countrymen of ours.my aunt showed me a picture of the hut he was living in,I couldn't help but breakdown considering such a genius from such simple backgrounds.always it's the people whom no one expects anything of ,who do things that no one can imagine and I am destined to live in an era of such great people.thank you God.

MattyGibbs The true story of an Indian maths genius who gets to Cambridge University just prior to WW1. On the face of it a film about a mathematician seems a dull subject for a film and to many it probably is. However this film is so well done it doesn't really matter what the subject is about. Rarely does an actor come across as likable as Dev Patel and his role in this elevates it a notch higher than maybe it should. He plays Srinivasa Ramanujan who stuns Cambridge by solving a mathematics puzzle that was thought to be unsolvable. Patel lights up every scene he is in and receives great support from the ever dependable Jeremy Irons. It may be slow in places as it charts Ramanujans struggles but the film slowly sucks you in before unleashing a body blow right at the end of the film. This is a superb and heartbreaking drama that is much more enjoyable than you think it will be. Highly recommended.
