The Guardian isn't an American outlet.


* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: The film had a mixed reception in India, where most reviewers thought it had moments of brilliance, but was largely just slow, meandering and self-indulgent. American reviewers, on the other hand, were almost unanimous in their glowing praise, with many calling it one of the greatest movies ever made and the Indian equivalent to ''Film/TheGodfather'', with The Guardian even calling it one of the greatest films of the 2010s, the only Indian film to get that accomplishment.

%%* DarknessInducedAudienceApathy
* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: There is a lot of BlackComedy in this movie to avoid it from being too depressing. But the singer who sings weird( pronouncing R as D) in weddings and funerals is an openly comedic example. Qualifies as RealityIsUnrealistic as such singers actually exist and are employed in Rural Indian Areas to sing in Weddings and Funerals.
** Another time is when Faizal and Mohsina are arguing about how Faizal's weed habit makes him look much older than he is, while Faizal refuses to believe that he looks old. So Mohsina asks a random bystander...
-->'''Mohsina:''' Sir, please tell me, what do you think his age is?\\

Family Unfriendly Aesop is now Hard Truth Aesop. Not sure what the aesop here is supposed to be, especially if it's "averted".


* FamilyUnfriendlyAesop: Averted. Sardar cheats on his wife and gets his maid pregnant whom he shuns. Jilted, she [[spoiler: plots revenge using her son Definite who manages to kill Faizal, Sardar's son and become the most powerful man in Wasseypur.]]
