Movie Reviews

Urban Cinefile - 8/10 by Andrew L. UrbanA bitter sweet drama that marries themes of aspirational 'migration' with coming of age and cultural traditions that are broken
Flicks.co.nz - 8/10 by Sapna SamantPrashant Nair, the director, has crafted a sweet, funny and very touching narrative that is universal.
Scroll.in - 7/10 by Nandini RamnathUmrika makes pertinent observations about the challenges faced by desperate migrants, but the characters are too subdued and generalised to enforce the story's empathy with its subject matter.
FILMINK (Australia) - 7/10 by John NoonanThe strength in Nair's bittersweet script comes not from large monologues, but rather the subtle, almost throwaway lines that build up to a surprising yet fitting end that even allows its characters to look out over a sunset without it feeling trite.
Punch Drunk Critics - 6/10 by Mae AbdulbakiThere are moments of comedy, of eternal sadness, hope, and emptiness. The varying ranges are impressive.
User Review - 10/10 by Laura MGreat story and direction. Refreshing change to how villages are usually potrayed in indie Bollywood movies
User Review - 10/10 by Sugus DA story that goes straight to your heart with simple words and sincere expressions. A dramedy that brings us to a really tough situation: the price of following your dreams. A dream that maybe only exists in a kid's head or in a mom's effort for giving a better future to his son. Umrika shows the idealization of an unknown nation with a perfect mix of feelings that makes you just love the story
User Review - 10/10 by Jasrick JI saw this movie during the Sundance Film Festival and absolutely loved it. Everything about it is excellent--the storyline, the acting, the setting, the cinematography, etc. Through and through, it felt authentic; I felt very connected to the characters and totally immersed in the Indian (meaning East Indian) setting. My understanding from the Q & A after the film is that even though some of the filming was done near Mumbai, it isn't a Bollywood film. I don't want to say too much about it because I don't want to include any spoilers, but one of the main themes is the idealization of America by those living in India. The film is very touching and has a lot of heart. I consider it a must-see!
User Review - 8/10 by Facebook UA touching, funny, enjoyable slice-of-life feature full of twists, turns and surprises. This cross-cultural comedy-drama presents an intriguing look at two worlds, offering viewers insights into them without spoon-feeding the material to audiences. A heartwarming offering well worth seeing.
