Fantastic movie good story 🎈🎈🎈🎈
sakunpurena8 October 2023
After watching 800, I will just say that a star is never born, it's created! This is a transformative moment in Madhur Mittal's acting career, that helped him showcase a new depth of talent. A challenging role to play, but Madhurr ne toh Chakka maar diya yaar! I, as an audience was deeply impressed by his nuanced performance, recognizing his ability to breathe life into complex characters. With 800, Madhurr established himself as a versatile actor, opening doors to diverse and compelling roles, thus shaping a promising trajectory in his acting journey. I can vouch for him and this movie. Kudos to him.💓💓

Super duper blockbuster movie💯💯💯💯
sankrukalyu8 October 2023
A story that needed to be heard! I must say that 800 sensitively portrays Muthiah Muralidaran's struggles during the chucking controversy, offering a nuanced perspective on the challenges he faced. The film aptly captures the intensity of scrutiny and the emotional toll it took on the cricketing legend. Through powerful scenes and authentic storytelling, viewers witness Murali's resilience in the face of adversity. It portrays not just a cricketer's battle against allegations but also the broader issue of prejudice and bias in sports. M. S Sripathy has effectively captured this chapter of Muralidaran's life with grace, shedding light on the complexity of his journey and the unwavering spirit that made him an enduring icon in cricket history! What a mind-blowing journey! Murali is truly a legend, and 800 is a great portrayal. I loved the film.......

This is really a brilliant movie.
rakeshverma-4865618 October 2023
800 movie is so brilliant man! It is a compelling biopic that captures the life & career of Muralidaran, one of cricket's most iconic figures. This cinematic masterpiece goes beyond the cricket pitch, offering a nuanced and insightful portrayal of a man who faced numerous challenges and controversies. Also, I can say its storytelling seamlessly blends key moments from Murali's life into a crisp narrative. It dives deep into his early struggles, the pursuit of excellence, and the unwavering determination that helped him become the GOAT. The movie does justice to the complexity of Murali's character, presenting him not just as a cricketing legend but as a human being. Long story short, from common man to the country's man, aisi inspiring kahani hai 800. I like this movie a lot.

Must watch this film.
rahulyadav-3108118 October 2023
Madhurr Mittal has been my childhood crush. But leaving that aside, I would like to say that his fine spin of acting and his portrayal of Murali are nothing short of remarkable, capturing the essence of the cricketing legend with remarkable precision. His commitment to the role shines through, and he seamlessly embodies Murali's unique bowling action and personality traits, making for a truly immersive cinematic experience. I can guarantee that Madhurrr has done full justice to the role. Reallyy proud of him from Muttiah Murlidharan. What a mind-blowing journey! Murali is truly a legend, and 800 is a great portrayal. I loved the film.

Good movie
arunjaisawal8 October 2023
"Being a cricket enthusiast, I couldn't wait to see ""800."" But after experiencing the film, my admiration for Muthiah Muralidaran, fondly known as Murli Sir, reached new heights. The movie did a remarkable job of capturing his journey, and I was deeply moved by the challenges he overcame to achieve greatness in the cricketing world. What truly added to the movie's brilliance was the outstanding performance by Madhur Mittal. He brought Murli Sir's character to life with such authenticity and skill that it felt like you were watching the legend himself. It's no small feat to portray a real-life icon convincingly, and Madhur Mittal's talent shone brightly in this role."

Excellent acting
chancalasarkar17 October 2023
What a beautiful movie, really heart touching and moving. Literally cried in some of the scenes! We all have seen many biopics on cricket especially but I really like this movie. The storyline is absolutely amazing and acting is top notch by Madhur Mittal, it's not easy to fill the shoes of Murli sir. From slumdog millionaire to 800 Madhur Mittal has come a long way. He has aced the role, the transformation is just mind-blowing. The dialogue delivery, the screenplay is quite amazing... I really hope he does alot of movies here in Bollywoo Overall it's a nice watch, people should go watch in the theatres.

A noteworthy biopic that inspires to identify ourselves...!!!
PANDIAN12062128 January 2024
Warning: Spoilers
An unusual life story not just for a cricketer but for any human that inspires one and all where self belief & tolerance needs to be fullest to achieve the goal... Director Sripathy has found the charm to have the audience glued to the seat from the start to the end with a good screenplay, an amazing choice of cast, some hard hitting dialogues and few 'goosebump' moments. Thanks for making a non-masala movie...

Editor has done pretty decent job in combining important turns in Murali's life. But cricket match portions lacked authenticity...State Politics in the beginning and sports politics headed by Aussie and English in the later half depicted with super clarity in portraying the Master spinner Murali...

Madhur mittal has done standout job as the legendary bowler making us feel the pain he has underwent in his hiatious career... The actor who did role of Arjuna Ranatunga was noteworthy, particularly in scenes when he backed Murali's hardwork...

Overall despite of few flaws, 800 ends up as a genuine biopic of a cricketer whose story need to be told irrespective of the country or language in which movie was made.

Madhur Mittal has literally aced the acting game in this movie. Literally felt as if we are watching Murli Sir only on the screens ✨ The storytelling is engaging, keeping you hooked from start to finish. The pacing is spot on, allowing you to absorb every moment of this remarkable journey. And, of course, Madhur Mittal's exceptional performance adds an extra layer of authenticity to the movie.

The film shows us that with determination and a strong passion for what we love, we can do amazing things. This film tells these ideas in a way that anyone can understand and be touched by. This movie will leave you with a renewed sense of admiration for the game and the incredible individuals who have shaped it. ✨

While its good intentions keep it from causing much harm, this crowded and formulaic biopic fails to justify its own pointless existence
isaacsundaralingam6 October 2023
Murali is undeniably one of the greatest cricketers to ever play the game. And it's often interesting to hear that his journey was riddled with as much roadblocks to rival his own success. Too many of course, to fit into a single movie, yet was exactly what was attempted here; with none of them ending up being any more insightful than a sentence on a Wikipedia article.

800 is essentially a weakly written checklist of career highlights with no perceivable goal than to merely say "hi, this here is Murali. He did ___ in the year ____". And it wasn't just the writing, but the acting too was poor on all fronts; starting from the obviously inexperienced supporting crew, all the way up to lead actor Madhur Mittal; who does everything in his power to milk any bit of emotion from this rather soulless script. The VFX was noticeably bad too; where all the shots were so poorly composited that it ended up distracting us from a movie that desperately needed any bit of our attention. The movie also attempts a stylistic approach to showcasing a cricket match, yet fails spectacularly in that too; with the end result looking more like choreographed stock videography than an actual cricket match.

The problem with 800 is that it screams inexperience in almost every aspect, and you can't help but feel that Murali deserves so much more than what this movie ended up being.

Amazing! Absolutely amazing performance by Madhurrr Mittal in 800. His performance is nothing short of magical, thanks to his commitment to the character of Murali which is evident in every frame-his bowling action mirrors Murali's with uncanny accuracy, his expressions while bowling reflect the intensity of the legend, and his emotional depth and body language bring the character to life. Mittal's dedication to making the audience feel the passion, struggles, and triumphs of the cricketing icon. Yeh toh pakka hai ki Madhurr Mittal has perfectly grown as an actor, jiski testimony uski screen presence hai that leaves a lasting impression, making 800 not just a biopic but a mesmerizing journey into the soul of a legendary cricketer. 🏏✨
