4/5
This movie reminds you of the forthright, unselfconscious storytelling energy that popular Hollywood films had in the 1950s and 60s, the era of sword-and-sandal. It’s a rather amazing adventure. Go to Full Review

Calling “Ramayana” epic may be a cliche, but there’s really no other word that would suffice. Go to Full Review

1956's The Ten Commandments meets Lord of the Rings. An epic film that does a wonderful job bringing the legend of Ramayana to life. Watch it in the original Hindi with subtitles - that version is top notch. Go to Full Review

Ramayana is the finest, detailed, extended adaptation of the Indian epic, ever since Ramanand Sagar's Ramayan. Go to Full Review

3/10
Tiwari’s film serves as an inadvertent reminder that the Ramayana needs no embellishment to prove its magnificence—and certainly no lackluster cinematic treatment to diminish it. Go to Full Review

It might easily dazzle viewers with its big-budget visual effects and celebrity names. But the wooden acting and bland dialogue make much of this long-winded action/fantasy movie look like soulless programming generated by artificial intelligence. Go to Full Review

Drsh K @RT89822742 41 min ago Ramayana is more than just a story it's an experience that leaves you thinking long after you've finished watching or reading it. The storytelling, characters, emotions, values, and depth make it truly special. Every character has something meaningful to teach See more Rakesh P @RT61955686 41 min ago Ramayana: Part 1 is easily one of the greatest cinematic spectacles I have ever laid eyes on—not just in this world, but in the entire galaxy! From Ranbir Kapoor’s calm dignity as Ram to Yash as an electrifying Ravana, every frame feels like living history. Combined with the grand music and DNEG's visual effects, it is an unforgettable theater experience that leaves you with pure pride and goosebumps. See more John S @Johnsina27 52 min ago Damn! What have I seen? Namit & Nitesh sir, today a cinephile was born. Everything from top to bottom just one word "EPIC"! Please make PT2 even better. See more Abhinav S @Batman616 56 min ago An eye-watering cinematic experience. Every frame feels larger than life. This isn't just a movie; it's an emotion. Acting, no the actors were not acting , they were living the characters. One Word - Banger! Only flaw- It ends. See more Nitesh K @RT56196544 59 min ago Spectacular and a great cinematic experience. Glad to witness what is going to become a new standard in world cinema. Perfection at play to capture nearly 40% of the Epic in just 195 minutes. Can't wait for Part 2. And a spinoff maybe. See more Vitaly V @RT03011223 1 hr ago Jai Shri Ram!!! Must see movie absolutely Epic experience, there is nothing similar to it, best movie ever. So good that story about Rama will spread around the Globe, it's not just a movie it's a past times when God himself came on planet earth to fight with great evil. Top movie. 10/10 See more Read all reviews
