I did not enjoy this movie. Bad segments in this movie include the lengthy dialogues, too many crying-sequences, landscapes were all too glossy and even the culture part was over-glorified. Just cannot accept the last part i.e culture-glorification. Why would someone be proud of a culture? Why would someone enjoy that he comes from this geographical-region? Why would someone be proud of nation or religion ? Guess, someone who is having low self-esteem would rely on such farce stuff.
Guess, Samuel Johnson once said 'patriotism is the last refuge of scoundrels'
Me rewriting the same as 'Culture is the last refuge of scoundrels'.

Patriotism is the last resort of scoundrels. —Samuel Johnson
Thanks Ashok and Jayakanthan, for correcting me that it was Samuel Johnson's quote and not Churchill's.
