The story of Ramanujan is fascinating and inspiring, but unfortunately the movie has not presented it well. Though most of the important biographic details were there, I have not felt connected to or touched by the story. Some scenes felt kind of forced or disconnected from the story (most of the India ones) and others felt too rushed, so they didn't succeed to build the desired feeling. And of course the rushed ending that was merely [spoiler]presented as a plain text, like we are in wikipedia instead of a movie[/spoiler]! I probably would give it a point less if I could forget for a minute from the historical story and examine the movie by itself.

If you like math, the magic behind pure science and history, you'll surely love this rare movie in an era dominated by superheroes and franchise movies.

This movie was a true-to-life movie about the tragic life of the very gifted mathematician and mystic Mr. Ramanujan.

I liked the themes of triumph despite English racism to the Indian people.

And I was most glad to see the theme of Faith in God as the source of Mr. Ramanujan's otherwise in More
