Patang Reviews
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
When a character says, "You fly these kites and feel the joy," we know just what he means.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
The story falls flat and the impressionistic style - snippets of conversation, extreme close-ups, jittery handheld camera work - loses appeal after the first half hour.
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
Despite an occasional lack of narrative clarity, Patang has enough visual elegance and observant family dynamics to make it worth seeing.
New York Times
Rachel Saltz
[It] has a lovely, unforced quality.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
Bhargava's naturalistic approach to capturing the sights and sounds of a city in full revelry on rooftops and in the streets is colorfully vivid...
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
This film is joyous, but more than that: It's lovely in its construction.
TheDivaReview.com
Diva Velez
Beautifully acted and hypnotically staged, Patang is a feast for the senses that doesn't fail to deliver its story of family love and healing with real warmth and heart.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
It's a vibrant film, at least, one that brings to life some of the ups and downs of contemporary family life in India.
Slant Magazine
Andrew Schenker
Far more concerned with indulging a slightly less glossy Slumdog Millionaire-like aesthetic than dealing with the frayed relationships of its characters.

Josh Larsen
The characters remain faces on a brochure.
Village Voice
Michael Atkinson
Less Bollywood than Generic Asian Family Drama Lite, when it's not a flat-out sunset-choked infomercial for Ahmedabad and its annual rooftop kite-flying festival.
Slant Magazine
Robert Tumas
Overall, the film works better as a collection of beautiful images rather than as a cohesive narrative.
