Critic Reviews
Los Angeles Times | Mark OlsenAdd Critic to Favorites
Running just shy of 2 1/2 hours, the film has too much of everything, and that's not necessarily a bad thing. By turns exuberant and goofy and mushy and yearning, Dostana plays like a super-sized pilot episode of "Three's Company: Miami" with crack tunes and jampacked with fun.Read the full review

Gay's the way, but the way's not really gay, in the fluffy and largely entertaining Dostana.Read the full review

Film Review: Dostana
11/19/08 India produces thousands of movies annually, so while it's possible that some independent drama that never made it stateside has broached the subject of homosexuality in that rapidly changing country, it appears to be this big, dumb, colorful comedy from the Bollywood-musical machine that's taken Indian cinema out of the closet. | The Hollywood Reporter -

Opening This Week: Mumbai fairytales, Harry Potter fandom and Bond, James Bond
11/10/08 There is plenty of (semi)lighthearted fare at the art house this week with Danny Boyle tracking a "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" whiz kid in Mumbai, Arnaud Desplechin looking at a family reunion in France and a Bollywood musical playing out in Miami, followed by films that are distinctively more "hardcore," whether that refers to Harry Potter fans or elderly curmudgeons. | Independent Film Channel (IFC)
