very well done. clearly portrays the scene that unfolded during the Mumbai attacks in Nov 2008. A must watch for everyone that wants to understand the current events in the world. It's not overly emotional.

For people in the comments section who seem to conflate "facts" with "hate". 1. No one cares about your persistent offense. Nor should they. If you can't present a reasonable case as to why something is "inciting hatred", you should do the adult thing and change your perspective. 2. A basic inductive reasoning exercise for you: -Some people are terrorists. Some terrorists are Muslims. Are all Muslims terrorists? (An 8 year old can figure this out).

Like with just about all of the nonsense on the internet these days, this review section has been infested with political ravings based on strawmanning this film and a general inability to think rationally. "Hate" these days seem to include the presentation of facts. There is a tremendous amount of violence in Islamic countries, and a tremendous amount of documented violence has been committed in the name of hatred by Islamic extremists in the last 20 years. Precisely what about this is offensive? If you're offended by facts, you need to enter the adult world. Now any moderately intelligent, semi-reasonable person *should* be able to conclude that just because Arabic people are shown committing violence *does NOT mean this movie implies all Arabic people are violent*. Just because some Muslims are shown committing violence does *not* mean ALL Muslims are violent. *Obviously*. Why this distinction is so difficult to make is utterly beyond me. Rate the movie for what it is, and take off your political glasses.

A first rate suspense/thriller docudrama of the Mumbai Massacre in 2008. It portrays the selfless heroics of the Hotel staff, of whom some volunteered to stay behind & guide hotel guests to safety, at the same time playing the cat & mouse game for survival. A shout-out to Dev Patels performance in sensitivity, thoughtfulness , & human kindness that was displayed to perfection. One of the most moving scenes in the movie , in spite of all the carnage. Some humor was added , not to berate Muslims, but to break the tension. I won't call the 1 star Morons , 1 star Morons because it upsets some people. Some think the movie promotes hate towards Muslims , To the contrary, it displays the venomous hatred & violence in the form of merciless killing of innocent people by "Bad Muslims" (vs Good Muslims) toward the West & Non-Muslims. It also reveals the weak mindedness of too many that can be brain washed into performing the evil deeds of others who harbor hate. People see, what they want to see . Improve your comprehension skills, then write a coherent review. Most "1 star people" add nothing of value &/or are inaccurate in their assessment. Some people have difficulty facing reality. As a gun is pointed at a woman's head & fired, the film makers always pull away so you don't see their brains splatter. Though the killing is rampant, there was definite consideration in not showing how ugly the scenes could have been. This review is an "Accurate Assessment" of the movie. The Goodness of many countered the Badness of the few. These animals are the equivalent of the kkk, nazis, what happened in Bosnia, what stalin did to the Poles & Ethnic minorities, the Japanese atrocities on the Chinese [WW2] & what's going on in Myanmar. (should I go on). When they & their mind-set is wiped off the face of the earth, not the Jews , the World will be a better place. LOVE : A

Although this tragic situation did occur, the writers added too much dram which are unsupported by facts. They changed a tragic situation into a HATE propaganda movie. We need to learn from such hate and not fuel more hate. Great acting though ...

It was a good movie and really so intense and on contrary I don’t think it was about racism.

This movie had my wife and me on the edge of our seats the who time. There are some people leaving reviews that this movie attacks all Muslims, I didn't get that all. As in any group, there are good and bad people. This movie is about 10 Muslim terrorist who attacked several locations and killed 400 people. I have known numerous Muslims over the years and am proud to call many of them are my friends. They are good people. However, anyone who is going to go out and kill innocent people for any reason, Muslims or non-Muslims, in my opinion, are not good people.

One word...wow! The acting was superior, the story was well told albeit very sad and very tragic. Seeing this movie really made me think. This is not entertainment, it is about knowledge and understanding, about the sadness and terror that exists in the world today and bringing it into the light so that we can recognize and help to prevent it. No one who actually “believes” in any GOD could commit these atrocities; this kind of terrorism is solely about evil...they would do better to admit they are only praising the “devil”.

Name calling shows education level of some people, please refrain from doing so if you disagree with some of the reviews you read. Keep in mind that English is a second language to some people who add their reviews of the movie in this page, which means they might be more educated than the person who is angry at them for their English abilities. Now, let me start by acknowledging that killing people of any background, race or religious affiliation is very sick and sad. Since this movie is based on a real story, why does it try hard to instigate hate against Islam and Muslims! In one of the previous reviews somebody made a comment about how ridiculous one of the killers was by getting angry when his partner ate a slice of pizza that had pork meat on it. Eating pork meat is forbidden by several religions, Islam and Judaism are two of these religions. Did any of the actual survivors report seeing and hearing the real killer getting angry about eating pork?! It's obvious that the movie intended to make Islam and Muslims look evil and ridiculous to people who don't travel oversees and interact with Muslims in their own countries. The religion of Islam is very strict against crimes and criminals, and one can compare crimes between countries who follow Islamic laws and others who don't. There is no need for people to watch sick and violent killings, because some see this as cool and tough, and our society does not need to promote hate and violence. All of us are born to Adam and Eve, and should stop the hate and violence against each other. Remember, you are you, because you were born you, and I am me, because I was born me. If you were born me you would think like me, and if I was born you, I would be you and think like you. For the sake of the future of our children and grandchildren, let's love each other and care about each other. Shame on you, if you call me names after reading this review.. Be Happy :)
