The White Tiger

The film gives us a cruel and intense way to see the Indian society, it lets us see the big social inequality, corruption and injustices through the story of a man who wants to change his destiny because of his social position. One of the positive things about the film is the easy way with which it give us to understand the difficulties of Indian society and the tension between social classes. With Balram, we get a real insight of the struggles and challenges faced by the characters as they struggle to have a better life in a country with too much inequality and injustice. Another very good aspect of the film is that it shows really real landscapes of India, from street markets to rural landscapes, which ones helps the person who is watching the film to understand more about the Indian reality. The movie is about very difficult and deep issues, and the main character has an individual improvement, it does not leave a learning or a significant change. Also the film is very difficult to watch because of the mistreatment, violence and suffering that it is seen.

In my point of view, although the end is "happy", is a sad movie. Sad because we know that is a reality. The movie show us how is unfair the life and one way to face it. That are good actors, and the message is clear, but the movie is too long .

If you are looking for a movie to dream and look for a happy story with a correct process, I consider that this is not the movie for you. The white tiger shows a reality of what is lived in those countries, where if we do not pay attention we can take out and apply the wrong teachings or on the contrary take out a positive application that leads to personal or business growth. I like other types of movies, that's why I don't give it 5 stars. But it's a good movie, if it captured my attention.

The movie talks about the one of the problems in india and uses a very cliche algorithm that hollywood and bollywood had been using for years like in the movie the boy who harnessed the wind they shoy us someone that was hope in the world that he is living in and then they make him realice how crooked up is the society that he lives in. Then he starts to search for a way of leaving that world or at least solve his problem , personally i think that its not bad even when its using a very cliche script because they represent the situation of millions of people in one movie and at the same time they made it so people could realice about what is happening without a big intervention of media

Familiar ideas, Indian universe

Ramin Bahrani's adaptation of Aravind Adiga's Booker Prize winner of the same name is a gritty portrait of modern-day India's poverty, caste system, corruption, servitude and half-baked democracy as narrated with biting humor and weary cynicism by the titular village-bred self-made opportunistic entrepreneur in a letter to the Chinese Premier, Wen Jiabao, chronicling his incredible breakout from the "rooster coop".

Better than average, but a bit bizarre in the plot structure and motivations. Regardless, it was entertaining to see the Indian culture and its interactions with Americans. It was on Netflix.

Ramin Bahrani's bold feature film adaptation of Aravind Adiga's 2008 novel by the same name is a riveting picture of the ugly underbelly of India – caste-ism, classism, corruption. But at the same time, it shines a light on a downtrodden youth's journey to the top, as he adapts and fights his way through the jungle albeit at the cost of his conscience and goodness. Bahrani follows a no holds barred approach in his direction and screenplay – specifically at the dark and ugly realities that dog the Indian society, even as we race through the 21st century. I love the way there is no dilution to references and symbolism through the dialogues. It is as we speak and live, in our respective roles as we survive in the jungle – mongooses, storks, tigers, hyenas. The poor man doesn't think about the sensitivity of who is listening to him – he probably has a million other things to worry about other than hurting the sentiments of a blind fanatic who doesn't understand the difference between fiction, fact, literature and film. Adarsh Gourav is a dazzling revelation in the titular role. His performance exudes a raw realism that grips you firmly – watch out for his interaction with the beggar woman and the defecating man. Rajkummar Rao and Priyanka Chopra back him up really well – they stay out of the limelight but feed into Gourav's juggernaut of an act. There is an ample amount of the so called "sensitive" spots in the film that remind me of a certain other series that ran into rough waters in the past few days. Though this is a brilliant piece of film-making and I sincerely hope the so-called purist, cultural vigilantes that wander the land leave this one alone. Definitely a worthy watch.

The movie does a decent job in portaying the social, economic and politcal divide in India as well as the consequences of ambition and loyalty.

This movie was surprisingly good. The ending could have been a bit better imo but it was still really good.
