Saroo is an Indian boy who lost his family. Although he was been adopted by a good family who loved him and had a better live than in India, he never forgot his mother or his brother Gudo.

This story is about real love than time can´t destroy.

lion is a great little film about a boy searching for his mother in another country after being separated for 20 years or so. it stars nicole kidman, rooney mara, dev patel and a whole slew of indian actors. it's a real feel good tear jerker of a film and it will tug at your heart strings like many an oscar best picture style nominee will. it is filled with great performances, great cinematography, a stellar indian influenced score and a great true story. it is a movie that is impossible to not like. it is a film that will teach you the power of resilience, the power of the human heart, the... read more

the whole side love story thing with rooney mara's character detracted from the film. it felt very forced and unnatural. the last act of the film got to me though. read more

wouldn't be oscar season without some expensive india poverty porn. incredible as a true story but the movie spends its entire runtime building am image of indian inequity to contrast with western success and opportunity (and not even slightly examining the causes therein). half a star goes toward dev patel being very good looking, i'll give it that. read more

do you like absolutely comically over the top manipulatively sappy stories? do you like very slow and uninteresting middle thirds? do you like a reveal that's spoiled by the film's title? boy, do i have a film for you! overall this just felt like a really overbearing google ad. anyway, use duckduckgo. read more

is always good to find a solid drama with a story so powerful and personal that gets all the audience in the movie theather so inmerse. but this film excels through it´s character, saroo, an indian kid (played by an incredible young actor named sunny pawar) whose hard and troubled path, trying to find is way back home, will sure make you rethink about what we can do to change, in real life, these serious problems he has to face in the film. excelent performances, masterfull editing, photography and a very well developed script will make this film endure through the years. a real must see! and... read more

25 years after getting lost at the age of 5 and eventually being adopted by an Australian couple, an Indian young man becomes obsessed with getting back in touch with his original family. Based on the memoir "A Long Way Home" by Saroo Brierley, "Lion" gets us acquainted with adorable newcomer Sunny Pawar as it spends the best part of an hour following little Saroo's dangerous path towards adoption, then it abruptly fast forwards to the moment when adulthood (and the discovery Google Earth) suddenly sparks the determination of the protagonist to find his way home.
