1962: The War in the Hills

I was expecting a good war series but director just turned into a total disaster by making a love story instead a war so just don't waste your time on it.

Its more about the family drama than it is about the actual 1962 war. The show keeps abruptly transforming from a war drama based on true events to a melodramatic tv soap. In my opinion unnecessary family dramas, love triangles does not make sense here and that is what ruins the show

Poor direction, okay acting, poor dialogues. Somehow I managed to watched the 1st episode in hope that it's just the plot building and it would get better later. But, 2nd episode is super slow as well. I guess the director needs to understand the difference between tv serial and season. The director got lost between between romance and war. It's not worth spending 6-7 hours to watch it. Sorry!!

The title suggests that this is a mini series based on 1962 war, hence one would expect that to be the central plot . Unfortunately this show delves too much into the personal lives of the soldiers thereby making this show extremely tedious and boring.

If u are an army fan u will be disappointed to the core. The director lost an opportunity to make a great series. Battle of rezang-la is an event which could have easily been made on the lines of Band of Brothers, could have tried at least. Secondly, not using original names and character again keeps it away from being realistic.

And at last Indian industries' forever love for involving unnecessary drama in every war series is beyond explanation. A war movie must include war emotions of a soldier which makes it realsitic and engaging.
