Full Review at Spotamovie.com - Major is one of the best movies of 2022. Cinematography and photography are top-notch. The story is inspired by the real life of Major Sandeep, and there are powerful messages behind this movie. It’s intense and love, death, betrayals and family are some of the topics on the table. It’s based on the real terrorist attack happened in Mumbai in 2008, and how it was managed. - If you want to learn about the film check it at https://www.spotamovie.com/major-review-and-explanation-netflix-movie-2022/
