STRENGTH OF A WOMAN
Rating: 6.5 out of 10
Rating: 6.5 out of 10
On the rugged surface, Mary Kom is a formulaic sports biopic;
it plays by the ropes and rarely surprises you. Underneath, Mary Kom is a film
about a woman fighting against the disadvantageous state of being a woman in
today’s India. Her fight in the ring is with her opponents. Her fight outside
is with the Indian society. As the former, it’s an average film. As the latter,
the film is a knockout.
