Poorna - Movie Reviews

Poorna is the story of Poorna Malavath, who at 13 years became the youngest girl to climb Mount Everest. Although the story is inspiring, the telling of the tale is tedious.

Poorna is an incredible story, beautifully told
Hindustan Times
Asked why he wished to climb the Everest, mountaineer George Mallory famously said, "Because it's there!" Well. That's a good enough reason to watch this film too.

The treatment of the subject is what makes this film click. The way each character is portrayed is superb. Special mention to the nitty-gritty of Priya and Poorna, their camaraderie and their bond, which is marvelously conveyed. The film transforms the gritty realities of the little girl and her life into a celebration of determination without sinking into mushy sentiments.

At best, Poorna should have been a short film that tells us an inspiring story. Not a must-watch as a feature film.
