Margarita with a Straw Ratings & Reviews
them.
Michael Cuby
Few films can pull off a story as proudly inclusive as Margarita with a Straw...
Autostraddle
Carrie
It's funny, touching, visually rich, and only slightly too syrupy toward the end.
Bitch Media
s.e. smith
It's too simplistic to say that I found it offensive because of the nondisabled cast, but it's also true that I am reluctant to praise the things it does well because of this singular inescapable problem.
Dare Daniel
Daniel Barnes
Sensitivity and restraint are the film's greatest strengths.
International Business Times
Prarthna Sarkar
Margarita is not your usual drink. It's bitter than what's served customarily yet soothes your innards once down the throat.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
There's a lot to appreciate about the inspiring coming-of-age drama "Margarita With a Straw" despite several seemingly avoidable flaws.
MetroActive
Richard von Busack
Radiant and unusual.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
A touching Indian film about yearning and the spiritual transformations that come in its wake.
Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)
John Beifuss
In the role of Laila, whose slurred speech and wheelchair are impediments but not barriers to expression and freedom, Kalki Koechlin delivers the type of performance that in a major movie garners Oscar notice...
The Hollywood Reporter
Leslie Felperin
Director Bose handles the material with a light, elegant touch. It helps that the cast, especially the remarkable Koechlin who gives a bravura performance in both physical and emotional terms, can carry it all off.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
Margarita, With a Straw is an unexpected delight of charm and substance.
