Finding Fanny
Critic reviews and ratings
-
It gives us much, much to smile pleasantly at, to guffaw at, and one moment that will make the theatre gasp -- before it brings the house down.
-
This film is exactly the kind of brave clutter-breaking effort that most critics wish for while lamenting the rigidness of mainstream stars. That it left me grinning long after the credit-roll is a testament to its ability to amuse, without resorting to gimmicky slapstick or toilet humour.
-
The best thing about this screwball comedy is that Homi Adajania has evidently made it purely for the fun of it and not as a desperate bid to play to the gallery.
-
With its truthful depiction of individual foibles and local Goan charm, this film is a winner.
-
...funny, dark, yet bright, a shimmering ride...
-
With Being Cyrus, Cocktail and now Finding Fanny Homi Adajania's filmography is quite a cocktail. To pull this off and make it entertaining is not easy, but it's clear he is an extremely talented filmmaker.
-
...never dares to disappoint.
-
If you are up for a slow, light-hearted take on life, love and their philosophies, book your tickets NOW.
-
A great screenplay, well-etched characters, bitter-sweet instances making for a humourous ride, and top-notch acting.
-
...reasserts the power of simple story telling, making it one of the most refreshing and delightful films of recent times.
-
Go watch the film for its wealth of quirky characters dealing with everyday crisis and emerging richer in the process. It will surely put a smile to your face, if nothing else…
-
It shows us the shapes unrequited love can take. It is this twitchy feeling that makes this screwball comedy special.
-
...leaves you with a happy feeling. It is charmingly off-beat and yet mainstream.
-
If you're tired of the nonsensical fare doled out by Bollywood week after week and have a palate for Unusual-Entertainment, then Finding Fanny will fill your heart with joy.
-
...real, funny and thoughtful...
-
...a charming film that starts off slowly but draws you into its drama.
-
If the characters seem to come straight out of Mario Miranda cartoons, the telling seems to have taken a page out of Amelie...
-
...a slight watch, occasionally pleasurable, but not entirely memorable.
-
The much promised eccentricity doesn't live throughout and you slowly lose interest in characters in this character-centric film. Yet worth a watch for the performances even if some are caricatures.
-
Clearly the film is aiming at whimsy, a quality so smoothly achieved in Wes Anderson’s The Grand Budapest Hotel that was recently in Indian theatres. Finding Fanny doesn’t have enough substance to achieve its goal though.
-
Lots of quirk, but little else.
