102 Not Out movie review: what critics say (15)
What critics say Critics are mostly positive with reservations: 8 of 15 rated critics gave it 3.5 or more, 2 gave it 2 or less.
102 Not Out is, as I said, a sweet film. It's nice to see an old Bachchan picture on the wall, circa Abhimaan, just as it is fine to see a photograph of a Khel Khel Mein Kapoor teaching his son math.
Read the full review102 Not Out is uneven but heartfelt. Despite the flaws, the emotions connect. And if like me, you are of a certain vintage, you will get a nostalgic head-rush when you see Rishi Kapoor and Amitabh Bachchan in the same frame.
Read the full reviewEvery single gesture is overdone and extra boisterous like Bachchan's inflated exuberance and screaming prosthetics, reminiscent of the 1970s when he'd masquerade as a grey-haired old man playing to the gallery.
Read the full review102 Not Out is a light hearted family drama for a perfect weekend. Go, spot this one and celebrate life!
Read the full reviewA man who is 102 years old and full of life teaches a lesson or two or three for his grouchy 75 year old son. Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor make this father and son melodrama a good watch simply because they deliver.
Read the full review102 Not Out teaches us to find that one rare moment of truth that binds two people together even if they are not meant to be together for keeps. It's another matter that this father-son pair is for keeps.

How is the fan score worked out?
It is a Fair Score, not a plain average. Votes from brand new accounts, accounts that have rated only one film, several votes from one network, sudden bursts, and accounts that only ever give 1 or 5 stars count for less. A few early ratings cannot swing it. Nothing is hidden: we show the star bars above.
