...soulful and simply beautiful.
-
...shows how beautiful small can be, especially when the heart is in the right place and the mind is clued in.
-
...right combination of sparkling intelligence and well-placed emotions.
-
...is that little gem which needs recognition.
-
On the basis of its story alone, this is a winner.
-
...is yet another superlative children's film this year. Go watch this hearty film that lingers with you long after.
-
Its simplicity is works as both an advantage and a disadvantage. The easy-going narrative is a pleasant watch but too-good-to-be-true plot is distracting.
-
...a gripping watch that leaves you feeling uplifted and positive.
-
...a beautiful collage of heart-warming moments, sparkling performances and inspiring stories.
-
...a big smile of a movie. You watch, and smile right back.
-
A film that may not storm the box office, I Am Kalam will definitely stir your sensibilities.
-
...a charming little film that'll leave you wiser and happier.
-
This film is an example of how a children's film can regale with solid storytelling, at the same time creating space for undercurrent comment.
-
...an inspiring and motivating film...
-
...a dignified, heartwarming, little film...
-
We are giving three stars to the film. One for its brilliant idea and premise, one for the beautiful performances by Harsh Mayar and Meena Mir, and one for its being the first film of the director, which, in our view, is a commendable achievement.
-
...a good inspirational effort...
-
...a sweet, intimate, fable-like film...
-
A straight, simple story with no great highs and lows and an easy resolution.
-
An appealing film, but the 'Kalam' angle seems a forced search for political significance.
