Best movie of this year hands down!
the audience applauded
Good movie but grossly overrated
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

However, after the first 10 minutes, you realize that this was a very well-thought out film, combining humour, action, and drama. Very moving and inspirational. Every Buddhist and non-Buddhist should watch this film!
