Movie Reviews

Variety - 8/10 by Ronnie ScheibThe filmmakers eavesdrop on intimate musical interludes at home and in the workplace, where it becomes immediately apparent that these forgotten maestros consider themselves representatives of families who have practiced their art for centuries, passing on their musical knowledge from generation to generation.
Slant Magazine - 8/10 by Clayton DillardThe final note of optimism is consistent with the documentary's overall tone and interest in perseverance.
Los Angeles Times - 7/10 by Michael RechtshaffenThe unifying power of music is rewardingly demonstrated in Song of Lahore.
The New York Times - 7/10 by Ken JaworowskiIf all of Song of Lahore were as exciting as its ending, you’d need an hour afterward to catch your breath. It’s not, yet despite a lackluster start, this documentary redeems itself by the finale.
Christian Science Monitor - 7/10 by Peter RainerFor me, there is too much rue that goes unacknowledged by the filmmakers. When great musicians must adulterate their art in order to find an audience, I see no pressing reason to cheer.
The Hollywood Reporter - 6/10 by John DeForeA likeable if not especially vibrant doc.
User Review - 7/10 by EpicLadySpongeI know where this is going and the Song of Lahore will cheer all of us up from all the crying, regrets, and first world problems we're ending up in right now.
