Richard Attenborough's award-winning epic recounts the life and times of Mahatma Gandhi.

In South Africa, a young Indian lawyer is booted off a train for refusing to ride second-class. Upon his return to his native India and fed up with the unjust political system, he joins the Indian Congress Party, which encourages social change through passive resistance. When his "subversive" activities land him in jail, masses of low-skilled workers strike to support his non-violent yet revolutionary position. Back in India, Gandhi renounces the Western way of life and struggles to organize Indian labor against British colonialism. A strike costs many British soldiers their lives, so the crown responds by slaughtering 1,500 Indians. Enraged, the ascetic, spiritual leader continues to preach pacifism until he has lead India out from under the tyranny of British imperialism.

I remember watching this movie at school and studying it. To be honest, I didn't really pay much attention to it as it didn't interest me at the time... But watching this now, I can honestly say that it moved and blew me away!!

What Gandhi did was amazing and something that no one could ever do today. He went to great lengths to free India, and what a way he came up with!!

The movie is fantastic and a great watch as you are stunned with Ben Kingsley's performance as Gandhi. Infact, when you watch it, you can't help but actually BELIEVE that he really IS Gandhi!!

The Blu ray finish is wonderful and the colours are stunning. The sound is not bad either. The extras are pretty much the same as the DVD Edition but you do have Gandhi's Legacy: A Picture in Graphics Track which is a great addition to the HD format.

Overall, this is a brilliant movie and if you haven't watched it then you're a fool. A fantastic cinematic movie that no one will ever forget!

 Beautiful

I'm so glad they brought this classic out on blu-ray, it was a perfect piece to begin with, in blu-ray it is flawless.
