It has to be admitted that the film is rarely dull, until the final shoot out
All in all, this film may well be a low point in the oeuvre of Paul Thomas Anderson
Sanjay Mishra and the raw intimacy of being rooted
The sheer pointlessness of this movie - as entertainment, as quasi-history, as fairy tale, and as a contemporary political tool - is flabbergasting
The movie drifts along nicely, until you get a little tired, and wish that it all leads to a quick and rousing conclusion. Unfortunately, that does not happen
