As the opening subtitles of the movie say: a person's life cannot be told with a single story, only the essence of which can be faithfully recorded to try to understand a person's spiritual world. And this film does retell Gandhi's life in the shortest possible time. From this point of view, the film was very successful.
From my point of view, this movie is not my type (I like "The Social Network"), but it gives me the shortest amount of time to understand what I should know.
So, even though it's not my genre, I still think it's a great film. It's the same attitude I have with "The King's Speech," and their scene compositions are both great.
PS: This is the second film I've seen with an intermission, the first being Kurosawa's "Seven Samurai".

    A great epic masterpiece! It's not because there are many big actors in the film's long scenes, but because it perfectly shows Gandhi's great life! It was actually played by Ben Kingsley, and his appearance and acting skills are all Gandhi! Worship! It can be said that this is a Gandhi movie that has never been seen before or since. The thought of non-violence and non-cooperation, the spirit of self-sacrifice and Gandhi's famous words are deeply engraved in the hearts of the audience. It is full of faith, very shocking, touching and inspirational.

    "The Triumph of the Great Will" - When I despair, I will remember that in history, only truth and love can prevail, and there are many tyrants and murderers in history, who may be invincible in the short term, but in the end always Will fail, think about it, always. by Gandhi

Gandhi quotes

  • Colonel: [moments before the Amritsar Massacre] Should we issue a warning, sir?

    Gen. Dyer: They've had their warning. No meetings.

    [pause]

    Gen. Dyer: *Fire!*

  • Gandhi: The function of a civil resistance is to provoke response and we will continue to provoke until they respond or change the law. They are not in control; we are.
