I wanted to feel more, or at least feel something, for the anguish of these parents separated from their children. I wanted to root for Debika as she fought for the return of her children...

Mrs Chatterjee Vs Norway counts upon the virtuoso Rani Mukerji in the titular role to win the day, but remains mired in melodrama despite its true-life origins.

Even a woman as sympathetic and strong-willed as Mrs Chatterjee can’t carry a two-hour plus film alone.

Rated: 2/5

The problem with Mrs Chatterjee Vs Norway is that even as an obviously manipulative, emotionally rousing film, it fares poorly. The fault lies as much in the filmmaker’s rendition as in her interpretation.

Common Sense Media

In an energetic but clumsy retelling, director and co-writer Ashima Chibber only gives us surface-level characters, which exist to serve a story that feels like it's been both embellished and simplified for the silver screen.

Watch Mrs Chatterjee Vs Norway for its sensitive dramatisation of a real-life case. And for the superlative acting displayed by Rani Mukerji, and the entire ensemble cast.

Rated: 3.5/5

It really touches the heart barring the drama.. and portrays an immigrants life in the true colour. Above all it highlights the interpersonal relationships in an Indian family. I really wish the key villain, the husband has been brought to justice and properly punished. Also if only the Indian govt had added a financial bonus to Mrs Chatterjee to help take care of her 2 children!!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I thought it was over dramatic but looking into the reality after watching the movie, I understand their depiction of events and applaud their boldness. Great acting, important message, moving delivery.

5-for a woman who was born in India, visited Norway and is a western country citizen by choice-not birth. Yes-5 please. I’m married to an Indian and I was in tears watching this movie. This is a brilliant movie. Wish there were more votes-this is an excellent example of how India is life-giving in culture-hence the population and the western culture is life-consuming-hence the need for immigrants. This is a moral story. Please see with a lens that is not euro centric. Lovely story, acting etc etc. My vote to life

I live in Sweden and the first thing I was afraid of after coming here was that the authorities would take me away from my mother. I didn't think about what was better for me, what gave me great opportunities, I just knew that I wouldn't be able to stay away from my mother and I was 13 years old at the time. This whole foster care system, which takes children from their parents in bullshit, no one can give children more peace and security than their own parents. If children are not abused by their parents, there is no need to separate them from their parents, based on how they eat, dress or live in their own homes.
