Critic Reviews
-
Lisa Tsering, Hollywood Reporter
Quirky deaf man gets entangled in love triangle in poignant Bollywood romantic comedy.
-
Ronnie Scheib, Variety
Hopping nimbly among three distinct timeframes, helmer Basu deconstructs the film's sentimental thrust to stress his hero's in-the-moment ingenuity.
-
Gary Goldstein, Los Angeles Times
Despite a hard-working cast, a lush score, exotic location shooting and scattered warmth, "Barfi!" is ultimately more endurance test than entertainment.
-
Rachel Saltz, New York Times
Against your will, you may even shed a tear.
-
Michael Dequina, TheMovieReport.com
A moving work that is at once bittersweet and uplifting, and altogether charming.
