What are critics saying?

Village Voice by

Despite its candy-hued costumes, hyperbolic acting, sudden lapses into song, and mystical context (all Bollywood staples), it lacks "Lagaan's" sweep, humor, and colorful characters.

New York Daily News by Jami Bernard

Even with the requisite melodrama, it's a rollicking, optimistic movie.

Los Angeles Times by Kevin Thomas

This is a splendid example of contemporary Bollywood in which a director's sophisticated style and vision have been brought to bear on the beloved conventions of popular Hindi cinema.

New York Post by Megan Lehmann

Vivid visuals can't save an insipid plot.

The New York Times by Stephen Holden

Has a lavish ceremonial gloss. It is also a very erotic movie.
