There is not much I can add to Veldrins review - He has said everything I was going to say.
This was a real turd of a movie and if you check all the 10/10 reviews you will notice every single one is a shill - Usually the Director and the cast and crew voting it up and when its a big movie paid boiler room shills in Pakistan and India. Read Veldrins review its actually the only honest one on here!
When you start to watch a movie and within 15 mins begin to wonder when it will be finished you know it does not bode well.
The directing; what there was of it, was like some hippy had smoked a joint and wanted to spread love and peace man and decided to make this aural and visual torture! Yeah we get it dude; its trite, pretentious drivel and been done a thousand times better than this - and oh god the music! it was so misplaced and over the top. The acting was ham fisted and the camerawork was like something from first year film school. The slo-mo scenes just seemed to drag on and on in an neverending haze. If you bought into the name change and thought there was going to be lots of action then do not bother as there isn't any.
My goodness you will be glad when its over as the movie just drags on and on with its simpering, hippy, leftist, third wave feminist, libtard agenda sticking it to you in the lug'ole and eyeball at every turn. But hey , who am I to argue as that seems to be the Hollywood Agenda these days - Cinema truly is dying a death of political correctness!

Veldrin says it all...
Not a bad film that is just off enough to not be really good
My quick rating - 5,6/10. Although the movie is somehwat pretentious and tries very hard to push an agenda of religion, politics...probably more than just that really, it still is somewhat effective. The characters are fairly unique to one another which helps in the diversity, and the situation of being under siege with people that are not all similar. This is also very imoprtant to the cultural aspect of this movie. Unfortunately the acting is really hit or miss. The same characters that do a fine job in one scene, will be downright asleep in another. The uneveness gets a bit distracting. Now classifying this movie as action is slightly a stretch, but I couldn't really peg it elsewhere. To judge on the action, you'll be disappointed since this isn't a "black Hawk Down" or "Bengazi" type flick. This is much more focused on the interactions of the players, and how they gel in a no win situation. If it wasn't for the flaws I mentioned, and those I am about to, such as weird camera work that seems out of place, and scenes that really could've been left on the cutting room floor to get this under 2 hours. One last gripe, which I think supports my first statement completely: Changing the name of the film from "One Less God" to "Mumbai Siege" for the release. To me that sounds like a major copout to attract attention to it being an all out action fest, when in reality, that is far from what this is. Too many flaws to reach much higher than a six, but it leaves with a quote that I personally think was brilliant. "If our children keep dying for the sake of our beliefs, isn't it time our beliefs started dying for the sake of our children? "
Drama written around a modern real life crisis.They don't work for me.
If these events weren't real it would be a damn good movie.But it lacks the reality, you're terrified, horrified and traumatised, but take time out for a one liner to ease the moment, get real. As for wandering the corridors of a hotel roamed by armed Jihadists, I'd think of taking at least a kitchen knife or table leg.As for a couple of snorting murderers I'd need to review their toxicology reports.But if facts and reality don't matter, it's well worth watching.
