Governor movie review: what critics say (8)
What critics say Critics are divided: 3 of 8 rated critics gave it 3.5 or more, 3 gave it 2 or less. Praised: the script.
An oversimple take on India's monetary muddle reduces a chapter into a page.
Read the full review'Governor: The Silent Saviour' is a serious watch and not for the 'massy' audience. But definitely a movie that will make you think. It is engaging, immersive and most importantly hugely relevant.

How is the fan score worked out?
It is a Fair Score, not a plain average. Votes from brand new accounts, accounts that have rated only one film, several votes from one network, sudden bursts, and accounts that only ever give one star's films 1 or 5 stars count for less. A few early ratings cannot swing it. Nothing is hidden: we show the star bars above.
