Movie Reviews

NUVO Newsweekly - 9/10 by Christopher LloydJoyous, heartrending and illuminating, Siddharth is a film that's more about how the daunting journey changes a family than where it takes them.
Toronto Star - 9/10 by Linda BarnardTension builds along with hopelessness but Mehta avoids making judgments or giving easy answers about the circumstances that led to Siddharth being sent off to work.
Oregonian - 9/10 by Kim MorganThe film never feels less than utterly real in its depiction of both everyday Indian life and the hopelessness that comes so naturally in this sort of tragic situation.
Newsday - 9/10 by John AndersonPart of what makes "Siddharth" so troubling and moving is the difficulty we have situating our sympathies.
East Bay Express - 9/10 by Kelly VanceSuch a movie is a rare and elusive thing.
Blu-ray.com - 9/10 by Brian OrndorfNot the easiest sit, but Siddharth rewards the brave with a study of pained determination and portrait of Indian life that offers a few surprises.
Washington Post - 8/10 by Stephanie MerryThe story itself never wavers when it comes to portraying the truth.
Reeling Reviews - 8/10 by Laura CliffordWriter/director/editor Richie Mehta ("Amal") has created a modern day "Bicycle Thieves" with this devastating tale of an illiterate man trying to find his son with next to nothing to go on amidst the teaming masses of India.
honeycuttshollywood.com - 8/10 by Kirk HoneycuttRIchie Mehta takes care to seek no melodramatic situations or easy villains, unless the villain is the uncaring society in which his hero lives.
Los Angeles Times - 8/10 by Sheri LindenMehta explores matters more complex and unsettling than movie-tidy, against-the-odds heroism. In Tailang's fine performance, the enormity of Mahendra's mission registers in all its devastating weight.
