Gandhi is just what you think it is: one of those long, slow, oh-so-traditional Hollywood epic bio pics. A historian friend of mine says that it's all basically hogwash and a propaganda piece that glosses over a lot of bad things about Gandhi. I don't know about that, but I do know that Ben Kingsley is really good and deserved the Oscar. Candice Bergen and the supporting cast are not bad either. It's good, not great, and worth a look, but no more.
