Leave your thoughts about Laal Singh Chaddha.
| IndieWireProma KhoslaA faithful adaptation that still finds the space to lean into specific cultural influences, deep history, and lovely visuals. |
| SlashfilmWitney SeiboldLaal Singh Chaddha is hardly a Terrence Malick-like contemplation of pacifist philosophy — it's ultimately a broad, sentimentalist opera designed to have audiences reaching for their handkerchiefs — but it does have a more complex and gentle point of view than the film it's remaking. Despite how corny it is, Laal Singh Chaddha it unexpectedly disarming. |
| The GuardianMike McCahillAssiduously replicating its predecessor’s strengths and weaknesses, the one thing it risks is that a three-word summary – Hindi Forrest Gump – would tell you all you ever needed to know about it. |
| EmpireIan FreerIt’s an enjoyable, super-faithful cover version but Laal Singh Chaddha is like a box of chocolates: you know exactly what you’re gonna get. |
| TheWrapCarlos AguilarAside from how unnecessary remakes tend to be, what’s imperative is to consider whether a story with such a simplistically offensive depiction of disability as an enchanting characteristic can have a place in today’s world, as we collectively try to move away from unchallenged amusement that thinks it’s uplifting even as it punches down. |
| The New York TimesNicolas RapoldThe movie’s charms are limited by what comes to feel like a coddling conceit. |
| Movie NationRoger MooreThere isn’t enough that plays as all that funny in this version of the comic satire Groom cooked up. |
| Austin ChronicleJosh HurtadoBetween the neutered and uninspired adaptation, the direction that seems satisfied relying on shots that already exist rather than building something new, and the gobsmacking, borderline offensive portrayal of the lead character by Khan, Laal Singh Chaddha is a big miss. |
