“An excellent, white-knuckle thriller – and an unlikely crowd-pleaser.”~The Guardian

Aroview: Gripping dramatisation of the 2008 siege of Mumbai's Taj Hotel, following the staff and guests as they fight to survive the merciless attack by a group of armed Jihadists who run amok in the iconic building over a gruelling three days.

As well made as it is, this has been fairly criticized for its excessive violence and the argument that re-enactments of this kind can do more harm than good. It also suffered unfortunate release timing in the wake of the Christchurch terror attacks perpetrated against a Muslim community.

I find this review offensive! I don’t agree with this review. I agree with this review.
2 stars (Good Try) The best scenes are the early outside location shots prior to the inside location shootings. This well-made massacre drama should fill the gap between your evening and nightly TV news bulletins. ~Tubbs
