Legend movie review: what critics say (13)
What critics say Critics are mostly positive with reservations: 4 of 12 rated critics gave it 3.5 or more. Praised: the pacing and the action.
The talking point of the film is the effortless performance by Nandamuri, which is a combination of romantic action and a mass entertainer.
Read the full reviewSure, the Krays are dynamic in and of themselves, but a lack of a narrative drive as well as dangling subplots that never really take off, all amount to a much longer affair than you'd expect.

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 1 or 5 stars count for less. A few early ratings cannot swing it. Nothing is hidden: we show the star bars above.
