Hey Ram (2000)
Hey Ram is streaming in India on Amazon Prime Video, Eros Now Select Apple TV channel.
The verdict
Hey Ram earns its keep as a steady Tamil film that knows its audience. It holds a 7.0/10 on TMDB from 65 ratings, well above the typical run of new releases. At 199 minutes it's a long sit, so save it for when you've got the evening. In India you can stream it on Amazon Prime Video, Eros Now Select Apple TV channel.
Should you spend 3h 19m on it?
3h 19m of Tamil history with drama threaded through, adults only. At this length it's the whole evening's plan, not something to slot in after dinner.
Don't watch this if…
- you'd rather wait for a consensus. Only 65 ratings in so far
- you're short on time. At 3h 19m it wants the whole night
- kids are in the room. This one is rated A
- Why
- 7.0/10 from 65 ratings — well received so far, on a modest sample.
- Skip if
- you want something you can finish before a reasonable bedtime
- Best for
- A night when you don't need it to be for everyone
