Best of the Best

“On the whole, 'Best of the Best' keeps it breezy, humourous and is a thoroughly enjoyable and relatable college dance-comedy that gets all its beats in sync.”

“For a film primarily about dancing, the editing undercuts the choreography at every turn. The same problem that plagues much modern Hindi cinema also infects “Best of the Best”: edits litter the frame so often you can’t properly appreciate the choreography.”

“There is absolutely nothing unexpected about this Netflix comedy set in the world of rival Bollywood dance groups on American campuses. Each plot twist is instantly familiar, every character recognisable, the essential formula untweaked from a dozen previous college comedies. But it's funny and snappy, and directed with infectious energy by Lena Khan.”

“"Best of the Best" is a giddy and soul-affirming story that smoothly blends modern political satire with the familiar rhythms of classic collegiate drama, delivering a bigger and brighter movie with a clear point of view. Even when it wraps things up a little too conveniently, the film leaves you wanting more and always trusts its spirit to fill the room.”
