Lagaan: Once Upon a Time in India Ratings & Reviews
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
A great big Bollywood musical, complete with song and dance and doomed love triangles and elegantly photographed men playing cricket. And it's terrific fun, in a way that only great big musical fantasies can be.
Chicago Tribune
Monica Eng
After having seen this Cinemascope extravaganza in a theater, on DVD and video, I still think the big screen experience is worth it.
Detroit News
Susan Stark
A one-stop shopping experience in the cinema of the subcontinent.
Detroit Free Press
John Monaghan
An old-fashioned crowd-pleaser that charms you into forgiving any of its shortcomings.
San Francisco Chronicle
Edward Guthmann
A rippingly good, old-fashioned movie epic that takes the best of Bollywood cinema ... and elevates it for an international audience.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
An enormously entertaining movie, like nothing we've ever seen before, and yet completely familiar.
San Jose Mercury News
Glenn Lovell
If you haven't sampled India's indigenous cinema, this is a great place to begin.
Newsday
John Anderson
In some ways, Lagaan is quintessential Bollywood. Except it's much, much better.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
It's been made with an innocent yet fervid conviction that our Hollywood has all but lost.
New York Post
Jonathan Foreman
If you can swallow its absurdities and crudities Lagaan really is enormously good fun.
Boston Globe
Aseem Chhabra
Manages to be both hugely entertaining and uplifting.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
An affectionate homage to a popular genre that raises it to the level of an art film with fully drawn characters, a serious underlying theme, and a sophisticated style and point of view.
New York Times
Dave Kehr
This is a movie that knows its business -- pleasing a broad, popular audience -- and goes about it with savvy professionalism and genuine flair.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
A movie that amply delivers on the epic promise of its title, entertaining, enlightening, and emboldening viewers with its deceptively simple premise and execution.
Variety
Derek Elley
An involving, easily digestible hunk of pure entertainment that could be the trigger for Bollywood's long-awaited crossover to non-ethnic markets.
Chicago Reader
Mark Peranson
Few recent American musicals are this fluid or engaging.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
[I]t is long, but it never sags.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Peter Rainer
If you've never experienced a Bollywood musical before, seeing Lagaan will be like watching Gone With the Wind without ever having seen a Hollywood movie.
Village Voice
Ed Halter
Elegantly produced and expressively performed, the six musical numbers crystallize key plot moments into minutely detailed wonders of dreamlike ecstasy.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
There's back-stabbing, inter-racial desire and, most importantly, singing and dancing.
