Hare Krishna! The Mantra, the Movement and the Swami Who Started It All (2017)

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

This is the most impressive and influential documentaries I have ever watched! It is powerful, emotional, and thought provoking. It brings to light the importance and the universal truth that every human being should try to figure out in his/her current life. Very much enjoyed watching the actual story behind Hare Krishnas. Swamiji was indeed trying to make this world a better place to live for all!

A must watch movie if you want to change for the best!An eye opener movie that reveals the inner journey of the soul.The founder Acharya of Iskcon Srila Prabhupada did a huge favor to the world by introducing us with Hare Krishna movement.One religion. One mantra. One god.Loved it. Thanks. Hare Krishna!

In the turbulent and heady times of mid-sixties America, arrives a lone Holy man from India. Having suffered two major heart attacks during a grueling 35 day journey via a cargo ship, no money to his name, no institutional support, and no contacts, A.C Bhaktivedanta Swami came with a revolutionary message of finding inner peace through Bhakti, devotion to God through the chanting of the Hare Krishna Mantra, and simple living and high thinking. In this film, through his own words and those who knew him, students, well-wishers, academics, and even luminaries such as Allen Ginsberg and George Harrison, as well as archival footage and photographs, many taken by the directors themselves, the struggles and triumph of Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada is told. Weaving a narrative of a life dedicated to service to God and love and compassion for humanity. His is a compelling story, and the film makers did a remarkable job depicting it. This is an inspiring movie, and I feel that any and all would enjoy and benefit from seeing this.

Very good film. You must see. No boring film. Inspiraing movie. For Everyone. I love this movie. Prabhupada is very rare man. And this film show everyone something very good. NOt only for saints. It is for everyone and for every religion, man or woman, for all people. I don't saw better movie like this. Prabhupada and Krishna :)
