This is not an action/adventure tale or an eastern martial arts flick. Instead it is the thoughtful tale of the spiritual journey of a remote Indian warrior (samurai if you will) who renounces his violent past and seeks redemption. In some... Full review

Breathtaking panoramas, superb indigenous caste, sparing of words, a contemporary "silent film." It unfolds subtly, respecting the viewer\'s intelligence. It affirms human capacity to transcend the evils of violence with pungent, poetic, and stark realism.... Full review

imperfect movies, like imperfect humans, can still do extraordinary things.....minus cinematographer Roman Osin's sweeping shots of India's scorching Rajasthani Desert and the rugged western Himalayas, which have sufficient mystical qualities all by themselves.....If you view simplicity as a weakness, this film probably won't sit well over the long haul.....As one of the few professional actors in this cast, Khan probably knew the burden of a minimalist script going in..... ...
