Critics Consensus

Its depiction of real-life horror will strike some as exploitative, but Hotel Mumbai remains a well-made dramatization of tragic events.

it's one of the harder films to watch but packed with enough thrills and heart-wrenching emotions based on the true events of the 2008 terrorist attacks in Mumbai, India the film depicts the bombings and the siege of the Taj Hotel not only were 50 guests trapped but several staff members as well, most of whom stayed behind to keep each other safe the film wastes no time showing the terrorists fully committing to their plan of attack to honor what they've felt they lost they believe in sending their own message for the world to hear aside from Dev Petel as an employee, Armie Hammer as a father and a newlywed to Jason Issacs as a Russian elite most of the other players are unknown but they amazingly play the real-life victims desperate to escape as well as work together director Anthony Maras shows a real-life traumatic experience of ordinary individuals pulling together in desperate times in the most unexpected of dyer circumstances

Mumbai Hotel is a pretty interesting movie. A good plot mixed with shooting and tragedy gives you what you came for, a lot of emotions. The characters delve into the soul and you worry about them until the very end

I'm a big fan of films based on true events and this is one of the best I've seen. Very powerful, especially considering recent events. Only didn't get a 10/10 as (like nearly all of these sort of films) the characters make very frustrating choices from a viewer standpoint and the police were downright incompetent.

I was enthralled by this movie and at the same time found it difficult to watch as it was based on true facts. The idea that a group of young people could so easily be brainwashed into killing so many innocent people so randomly was very disturbing to me. That plus the fact that our b. O. R. D. E. R. S are so wide open now and we have no idea who is coming in.

Chicago Reader

The movie's coda cements the overarching message of extolling heroism and the survivors' refusal to let terror define them. But that moral still rings a little hollow.

Hotel Mumbai is a disturbing and haunting reminder of what so many endured.

Film Companion

Anthony Maras is successful at staging the horrors of that night and the scale and extent of the tragedy is too vast to leave you unmoved.

This is no sanitized account. It’s gritty and admittedly tough to watch. But it could also be one of the more authentic portrayals of its kind. It certainly left me rattled.

M.N. Miller

Ready Steady Cut

The first great film of 2019. A visceral, pulse-pounding, frenetic docudrama held together with extraordinary technique by Maras. Imagine, a Hollywood film based on real events that depicts men and women of diversity as honest-to-God real-life heroes.

Rated: 4/5

Next Best Picture

Still, "Hotel Mumbai" marks an impressive feature debut for Maras, despite the fact that his script at times lapses into 1970s disaster movie characterizations. (You'll know them when you see them).

Rated: 6/10
