2/5
The whole is lively and colourful but those who know Gatlif 's work may feel they've seen it all before. If you haven't, you may be more impressed. Go to Full Review
Anthony Quinn Independent (UK) Aug 10, 2007
2/5
Gatlif seems literally to make it up as he goes along, a modus operandi that works fine in the impromptu musical interludes but fails utterly in terms of drama. Go to Full Review
Nigel Andrews Financial Times Aug 10, 2007

Kaleem Aftab The List Nov 3, 2018
3/5

Perhaps Tony Gatlif's oddest film to date, it's a kind of road trip with so few borders that it's easy to get lost along the way. The plot is as obtuse as its mix of languages Go to Full Review
