A film about the beauty of humanity and a very beautiful person. A very good insight into the life of a man that it is a great shame there are not more like. An absolutely perfect film and definately NOT too long. |

You never really learn who he is, but he sure likes to be peaceful that is all you here from him over and over again. Everything happens rather suddenly characters die off off screen without telling you. This does not give you anything not an interesting insight into his mine nor a fascinating historical tale. You get nothing out of Gandhi whatsoever. Even Kingsley's performance gets in a real rut as soon as he becomes bald.
Oscar Win Best Actor Ben Kingsley 4/5- Kingsley is very very good in the early scenes of the film as the young Gandhi. He gives a great and interesting character portrait that is until he becomes bald. He then m... |

a brilliant movie about a brilliant man. Some say that it drags on, but i disagree, unles you have a short attention spand, because everything leads to something else and you have a need to find out what the next part of the story is. |
