Governor Twitter Review
This historical drama was released to theatres on June 12, 2026. While the buzz around this movie was low, fans have rushed to social media to talk about this movie. Let’s dive in to see the ‘Governor’ Twitter reviews to know what netizens are saying about this movie.
A Twitter user, @HetTannaHere, talked about this movie saying, “Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️½
#Governor is a RAW, GROUNDED, ROOTED, SUSPENSEFUL thriller, headed by the masterful performance by #ManojBajpayee, what a film, what a performance. Definitely one of the best films for me until this time of the year. I was gripped most of the time.
#ManojBajpayee has SMASHED THE BALL OUT OF THE PARK with his performance, he has simply lived the character, the mannerisms, the emotions, the discipline, he has put his soul into it.”
Another Twitter user, @rajeshnair06, gave his honest review, saying, “#Governor could have easily become a dense, technical film about economics, the RBI and a national financial crisis. Instead, Director Chinma Mandlekar and the writers Ravi Asrani, Saurabh Bharat and Shubhendu Bhattacharya turn it into a deeply human story.”
An X user, @FilmiHindustani, praised this movie,saying, “#ManojBajpayee is outstanding as former RBI Governor S. Venkitaramanan Sir. I mean wow!! His mannerisms, posture, gesture, conviction and screen presence bring the character to life with REMARKABLE authenticity. One of the film's biggest strengths is how it simplifies complex economic concepts, making them accessible even to those with little or no background in economics.”
Another X user, @_PatilVishwajit, tweeted about the ‘Governor: The Silent Saviour’, saying, “#GovernorReview : ⭐️⭐️
#Governor A COMPLETE DISASTER AND A TOTAL WASTED OPPORTUNITY!
I walked into the theater expecting a sharp, gripping historical thriller, but Governor turned out to be a highly flawed, frustrating, and heavily dragged cinematic mess.
The script is a chaotic disappointment. Director Chinmay Mandlekar attempts to convert a serious 1991 economic crisis into an overly dramatized boardroom saga, but the execution fails completely. ”
