2/4
A randomness defines things in the film; so one minute the dialogues rhyme irreverently and are filled with innuendoes and the next minute lapse into the inane. Go to Full Review

I enjoyed the lovers, and their ram-leela: if only the film had been more ras, not goli-leela, more roses than guns. Go to Full Review
David Chute Variety 12/12/2017
The most effective sequences the two stars have together are the large-scale dance numbers, which are beautifully and imaginatively staged. Go to Full Review
Pradeep Menon Firstpost 10/17/2023
Some thoroughly original imagery, outstanding music and one of the best lead pair casting decisions in recent popular Hindi cinema made the film a staggeringly daring rendition of the most famous love story in pop-culture... Go to Full Review

4/5
There’s nothing conventional about it. It’s based on Romeo and Juliet, but Bhansali has contemporised and Indianised it so much that it feels like Shakespeare’s play is just the foundation on which has been built this extravagant film. Go to Full Review
Rachit Gupta Filmfare 12/12/2017
Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-leela is an illogical love tale dressed up in opulence. A classic case of looks can be deceptive. Go to Full Review

Amrik D. @kirmadys Nov 15 An Indian version of the play Romeo and Juliet! Worth the watch! See more 07/21/2021 This movie is amazing!!!!!! I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. The special effects were breathtaking, but the acting left something to be desired. See more 09/18/2019 A terrible version of Romeo-Juliet story. The only saving grace in this movie are songs, that are beautifully choreographed. See more 09/11/2019 Ram-Leela is ultimately a very entertaining love story which raises the bars of a Sanjay Leela Bhansali film. The visuals are stunning, but the gore can clearly be seen amidst the vivid colors. Ram and Leela are original, intimate, playful and notorious, but the rebellious spirits of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet are clearly to be seen in them. The visually remarkable and unhealthy but still, entertaining film is something always worth your time, money and emotions. See more yash b 12/25/2018 This Bollywood retelling of the classic story, "Romeo and Juliet," is pretty good overall. I think the two leads have solid chemistry which is really what any retelling of the story rides on so that is a major plus. I thought, for the most part, the movie follows the story as we know it and sticks to its source material with a different setting and enjoyable musical numbers. I do feel the movie does build up solid momentum but starts to slow way down in the final act because the story starts to become pretty uneventful. If you like the "Romeo and Juliet" story or are just curious about a different take on it, this movie is worth checking out at least once. See more 09/17/2017 Don't know why there is such a low rating! This is simply the best Romeo Juliet adaptation ever made and I have seen them all. If you enjoy Bollywood, then this is in the top.
