COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Beautiful submitted by S S on August 29, 2016, 1:38am This is a beautifully understated film with good performances by Dev Patel and Jeremy Irons. Though the script is sometimes a bit too narrowly focused on Ramanujan's studies, it is still a moving film that makes us realize the genius of this man.
wonderful submitted by Whitetnchina on August 30, 2016, 2:35pm Absolutely recommend! Simply beautiful
Touching submitted by mmckenzie on June 25, 2017, 3:01pm Well done, but hard to watch the emotional cruelty which is not addressed in most of the reivews
good submitted by kbahleda on July 23, 2018, 10:09am Beautiful film if not a little sad
well done submitted by atpierce on August 24, 2018, 10:07am If you know the basic story of Ramanujan, there is not much new here, but the film is well executed and acted. If you don't know the story, it is a truly remarkable one, and well worth the viewing!
Dev Patel submitted by mandevil on December 24, 2023, 3:49pm Dev is a good leading man. Sad story about an amazing talent
