This mode of storytelling can be heavy-handed for the sake of mass appeal, but director Kiran Rao deftly combines the literal and symbolic, resulting in a crowd-pleaser filled — for better or worse — with innate goodness.

3/5

If you can get with the larky premise, Kiran Rao’s tale of mixed-up newlyweds makes for a gently probing comedy of manners.

3.5/5

Kiran Rao film is unapologetically message-y, but its strongly beating feminist heart overrides the broad brush strokes. Sometimes things need to be stated loud and clear.

Lost Ladies is a charming, sometimes biting, satire that weaves a love story with an empowering tale of one woman’s fight for her freedom—and fervent desire for an education.

7/10

LAAPATAA LADIES is a nice feel-good movie at the intersection of mainstream and independent cinema. Certainly a bit mellow, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing.

Laapataa Ladies is a fun, revisionist narrative where all the pointers of patriarchy are turned on their head, but at the same time, it treats feminism as a learned process and not a quick solution.

Beautiful film - excellent casting, camerawork, art. Easy and fun story. Definitely not a Hollywood production - it is simpler and kinder!

Too good. Simple yet complex. Appeals to a large audience and touches an important topic through comedy. What a wholesome movie.
