Lisa Tsering The Hollywood Reporter With Haider, [Bhardwaj] wisely forgoes the rough-edged attitude in his other films to embrace a slicker and more sophisticated style; and some of the film's most effective moments are masterful in their visual storytelling skill. Apr 15, 2015 Full Review Anil Sinanan Time Out The result is a tense, well crafted drama that lacks the deep emotional intensity required in its disturbed characters. Rated: 3/5 Apr 15, 2015 Full Review Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express I doubt if I will be able to forget the stunning visuals which dot the film, but the sum is never more than its terrific parts. Rated: 2/5 Apr 15, 2015 Full Review Rahul Desai Film Companion There’s a lot to appreciate in the way the actor submits himself to a role that reminds the audience how the storytelling – the oedipal tension, the public outbursts, the moral conflicts – is just as big as the story being told. Feb 9, 2023 Full Review Film Companion Staff Film Companion [It] masterfully uses the Bard's work to explore insurgency and conflict. Throw in a career-best performance from Shahid Kapoor and our case is made. Oct 28, 2020 Full Review Anthony Kao Cinema Escapist Haider offers a rare combination of not only action-packed entertainment, but also literary panache and geopolitical enlightenment.

Istiak M One of the best adaptation of hamlet ever. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/19/24 Full Review Audience Member Very Great & Very Good "Chutzpah" Movie... Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review yash b The most impressive thing about "Haider" is that it uses a story like "Hamlet" to portray something socially relevant. The movie is a well-made story that works because of its strong performances. The movie does tend to feel like it has a lot of things going on and sometimes I felt myself in and out of interest in the story. Nonetheless, it builds up to a very entertaining and engaging final act that makes it worth the journey. I admittedly have very little experience with "Hamlet" but I am certainly intrigued to watch another version of the classic story after seeing this Bollywood version. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Based on Hamlet, son of revenge to the father's death was murdered by his uncle Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Haider is a good movie but it has its own problems viz., the villain does not show the required emotional depth(is sometimes reflected on other characters) that story expects him to show, moreover, some issues with editing and sharpness of screenplay(at times) impair its quality. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member A powerful adaptation of Shakespeare's 'Hamlet', to Kashmir. Very well written, and acted. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
