Despite some significantly weird moments, Viceroy's House delivers a powerful, political and deeply personal story of a country being slowly split in two.

Still, Chadha (Bend it Like Beckham) deftly manages to capture the frantic mood of the times and the politicking that went on, not least by the British, and the settings are magnificent.

Ultimately, Viceroy's House might be worth a visit just for certain tasty details.

It's handsome, important, and moving in places, but it just isn't enough movie for the subject matter.

Chadha presents a wonderful representation of Indian culture and history (along with her staple Bollywood style with some song and dance).

Rating: 3/4 --
There's something pleasantly old-fashioned about "Viceroy's House." It feels like a Merchant Ivory period piece posing cultural questions within a safely cushioned environment. There are no guessing games, but also very little subtext.
