2/5
Murugadoss’ films, even the ones wholly underwhelming, have had some moments of pathos and genuine thrill, even Darbar and Spyder. August 16 1947, I’m afraid, is devoid of tension and thrill. Go to Full Review Harshini S V Film Companion 11/16/2023
When the hero finally triumphs, you have already seen enough gore that you are ready to sigh and leave the theatre, but then it hits you that it’s time for an intermission and not the end card. Go to Full Review Nandini Ramnath Scroll.in 11/16/2023
It's hard to care whether freedom is around the corner or not, whether for Sengadu or the bludgeoned viewerI Go to Full Review Saibal Chatterjee NDTV 11/16/2023
1/5
The storyline is a maze, the characters are riddled with contradictions and the general tone of the drama is beyond shrill. Go to Full Review Bhuvanesh Chandar The Hindu 11/16/2023
An impressive storyline is undone by execution, and you wish someone told the director that he doesn’t have to shoot everything he writes or retain everything he shoots. Go to Full Review Dhaval Roy The Times of India 04/06/2023
3/5
Dragging sequences and a convoluted plot prevent the film from being a taut and gripping story but high production values and an intriguing premise make August 16 1947 an engaging watch. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
