Great classic, 22 August 2003
Author: Satish (satish_ir) from Pune, India

The film has a good theme and set in quite genuine historical settings. It brings out the conflict between the indians and the settlers, the poor settlers and the ruling elite. It packs in quite some punch on the action category.
