5.0 out of 5 stars Simply Superb 12 Nov 2004
Format:DVD
This is a great film...provocative, informative, and very entertaining. The director excels in this film, and its the little things that make this different to all other Indian war films I've seen. He gets every detail right from the battalion names, to the weapons they use.

I for one will never forget the sacrifice made by those young brave Indian soldiers

1.0 out of 5 stars Dreadful in all the ways 15 Jun 2009
Format:DVD
Dreadful, its a lesson in how not to make a war film. The fighting took place in some of the most inhospitable terrain on Earth, casualties were heavy and the fighting bitter and bloody. While Kargil tries to show this and clearly some money has gone into the production the acting is so shonky its not even a passable propaganda film. In the age of good CGI Kargil had really poor production values although it looked like it was shot on location. There were even a few songs squeezed in there. Altogether awful. Do not buy. Lakshya might be a more interesting option.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointment big time! 28 Nov 2005
Format:DVD
As a war film fan I was really looking forward to this film, as other reviews were very good, and it covered a war very little heard of. The DVD itself is beautifully packed, with a hardback book lavishly filled with directors comments, cast, etc, and a disc inside each cover.
However, even though there has been great attention to detail re the weapons and equipment, the scenes are extremely repetitive, the acting is wooden, the continuous patriotism is grating and the occasional bursts into song are frankly funny. As this is the first Bollywood film I have watched, I am unsure whether this is normal, but for any serious war film buff, I would advise you to stay clear- if you want human characters, good acting and realism, watch Saving Private Ryan again rather than this!
