I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this movie but since it was on the list ‘1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die’, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, to be honest, it took me a while to get into this flick. Indeed, I was really bothered by this ‘White Men Burden's’ crap and, you can say whatever you want but the damned thing was just really discriminating towards the ... read more

Description: A trio of army sergeants stationed in India during the 1890s spend their days carousing, womanizing, and protecting British colonialism from a uprising.

"Homot menee naimisiin ja intialaiset on tyhmiä neekereitä. Gunga Din potee maailmanhistorian pahinta Tukholma-syndroomaa.
