Guru Movie Review
An outstanding movie and undoubtedly abhishek bacchans best performance till date.A movie which really inspires u based on the life story of the late dhirubhai ambani.The 1st half is really good and fast , the movie drags a bit in the second half at a few places.The cinematography and dirrection are superb and looking at those trams and black fiat cars u get a feel of bombay as it was in the 70s and 80s.A very good performance by the veteran Mithun Da as well.The end however leaves u a bit confused regarding the actual message of the film , as it is shown that despite doing corruption in order to flourish his buisness Gurubhai[bacchan] is let off by the court as only 2 of the 29 charges against him are proven.It makes u wonder if the film is justifying the use of corrupt practices in order to flourish and make ur dreams come true.But apart from them a superb movie in every sense and a must watch for everyone especially the youth.

ash was a pain to watch, she cant act
abhishek gives an okay performance but is not endearing enough. he can't hold a candle in front of his father.
he fails to send out any real message.
on the other hand mithunda is outstanding. so is madhavan, who you want to hate but can't because he appears so sincere. vidya balan as always does what she has to do.
the movie fails to deliver certain messages, due to what i assume is time constraints. eg: the "family" bond between the public and the company (of their IPO, shares etc) has not been given enough importance. similarly at that time, whatever illegal activities that Gurubhai was doing - they were against laws that shouldn't have existed in the first place. this message wasn't delivered effectively either.
all in all, it is a mediocre movie by international standards, but a spirited effort by ram gopla varma by the far lower Indian standards.
