Lootera movie review: what critics say (22)
What critics say Critics are mostly positive with reservations: 15 of 21 rated critics gave it 3.5 or more. Praised: the direction and the performances.
I should have watched Lootera backwards, because it finishes with an almost unbearable loveliness. The ache in the heart comes as a welcome relief, but a little too late. But I wish Singh had been freed up more.
Read the full reviewMotwane’s direction is so assured and confident that this scarcely feels like his second feature. The script is clearly one he believes in, and the film is resultantly free of false-notes.
Read the full reviewInspired from American author O. Henry's short story The Last Leaf, Lootera is a beautifully narrated, well-crafted love story that will make you fall in love with it again and again.
Read the full reviewBoth Ranveer Singh and Sonakshi Sinha are in for intense roles in Lootera who explore each other's feelings beautifully. The music of the film is breezy and touching. A well-crafted film by Motwane, definitely a must watch.

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.
