Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

Absolutely the worst movie.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Don't believe the hype, this lady was a Communist! Her father founded the communist party in Burma... Her "struggle for democracy", yeah right... Communist democracy, as in vote for whoever you want, but we count the votes... I'm sorry but glorifying this woman as some sort of freedom fighter, and that just doesn't jive with her communist roots... Now she's producing a Biopic about her father the communist leader, I bet you dumb liberals will love that one even more... This movie is warped in its perception and should have never been made... Luc Besson making this movie which is glorifying a communist, and also making "Lucy" which is for the glorification of Lucifer (aka Satan), this tells me everything I need to know about that French bastard... This movie is also boring, manipulative, and filled with propaganda... Stay away from this flaming pile of commie inspired garbage!

This film tells the life of the revered and brave politician who keeps on fighting for her people.It is not easy to condense years of events in a two hour film, but "The Lady" successfully carries the gist of what happened in Ang Sang Suu Kyi's fight for her country. Born as the daughter of the general who founded the country, she was in a uniquely privileged position to bring about change. Her remarkable bravery was well portrayed, such as standing up against dozens of soldiers with machine guns. Her enormous dedication to her people is so touching, and the film touched me deeply in the last half hour. Not only that, the inclusion of ethnic minorities in the film also deserves praise, even though it might have just been added for cinematic effect. I think the director did a great job in creating this film, successfully showing how Ang Sang Suu Kyi has transcendental love for her country.

i was waiting for someone to make a movie about this very remarkable lady and finally it came through... the staring hero was an obvious though very good choice however there are somethings that the movie failed to achieve i believe:-we did not fall in love with the country in dispute (Burma)the movie hardly came up with any historical events/facts that would bring the audience to understand the place-beside the"lady" and her family there are hardly any other character that you could remember after the movie, we realize this is a biography but the struggle was not her's alone -the way that (Burma) was captured on Camera was just to emphasis the stereo type about Asians -the movie would have a spectacular ending if they waited for sometime as the hero of our story dose indeed forms a government after the military hands over the power to her-comparing the movie to other remarkable ladies biography such as (the Iron Lady) and (the Queen) we find that this one is the least of the others in terms of direction and productionMuhannad Kalaji

The 1991 Nobel Peace Prize laureate, Aung San Suu Kyi, is played wonderfully by Michelle Yeoh. I knew little about this famous person as I suspect many also didn't. The movie provides you with historical information you should be happy to learn. This kind of movie is a departure from what we are accustomed to see from director Luc Besson, and it is a pleasant discovery. Yeoh delivers a beautiful performance and so does Davis Thewlis, who plays her husband.The movie is a truly beautiful love story, one that touches on the human spirit as few movies do. It is inspirational, nothing less. You will be moved by the story. The movie depicts the life of a people under military dictatorship and how the whole nation rallies behind the person that was destined to lead it despite all odds. You are likely to be following Aung San Suu Kyi ongoing real life story from that point on, as she is still very much the people's leader today. I could not recommend this movie more strongly.
