Movie Reviews

Screen-Space - 7/10 by Simon FosterMehta's drama establishes strong humanistic qualities and a deeply personal protagonist before launching into the courtroom fireworks.
Reuters - 7/10 by Shilpa JamkhandikarThankfully, the director doesn't over-dramatize events. He uses a restrained, subtle narrative to tell the audiences Shahid's story, rarely judging his motives or intentions.
The New York Times - 7/10 by Rachel SaltzMr. Mehta has done something difficult. He has made a film of conviction that’s neither plodding nor preachy.
User Review - 10/10 by Sandeep HBrutally realistic... It would be a crime to miss this one in theaters...
User Review - 10/10 by Jyoti Prakash M'Shahid' is by far the best Hindi film i have watched this year. When a man belongs to the people, he stops belonging to his people.
User Review - 10/10 by Sabir SGreat movie. Acting-5 star, story-5 star, direction-4 star, cinematography-4.5 star for me. Everybody must watch.
User Review - 8/10 by Mirza Mohd SA true gem of a movie...a biographical tale of a Muslim lawyer plus the current situation of stereotyping based on religion...Director Hansal mehta has managed to make film which is neither plodding nor preachy but at times fail to balance the thin line between realism & trauma satiation...
User Review - 8/10 by Mangal AA very moving and inspiring movie about a difficult topic. Restrained performances, especially from the lead actor Rajkumar Yadav .
User Review - 8/10 by NoMa SHansal Mehta's comeback film is an honest & sincere attempt with near flawless performances by entire cast specially Rajkumar Yadav, Mohd. Zeeshan Ayyub & Baljinder Kaur. If first half traces the life of Shahid from 1993 riots to terrorist training in POK (Pakistan Occupied Kashmir) to serving 5 year jail term for that than second half showcases Shahid in ferocious mood while defending his accused. Watch this film because it tells a story of a guy who had an extraordinary courage & vision. Highly Recommended if you think biopics in Bollywood are always tampered with unwanted songs.
User Review - 8/10 by Telvin SA very good acting by Rajkumar Yadav..no doubt one of the strong performance for last year..The story has been narrated well...award worthy but since last year had other strong competitors this might slip away..watch it just for Rajkumar's performance...
