A small-town girl overcomes all societal barriers to become a national-level athlete. Her glory is hindered when she is asked to undergo a gender test.

Shubhra Gupta

The Indian Express

When you see Taapsee Pannu's Rashmi fighting the good fight, for herself and for other athletes who have been done against in similar fashion, you want to cheer.

Rated: 2.5/5

Unfortunately, Rashmi Rocket is a sum total of some badly handled moments and sloppily mounted scenes, their cringe value further accentuated by bad acting.

News9 Live (India)

The film's inability to tell a naturally captivating story is underscored by its clichéd ways of telling that same story. It's like watching a potentially rewarding film go out of its way to frustrate its audience.

Rated: 2/5

Director Khurana works harder on the relationships, which turn out to the drama's strongest aspect. Rashmi's sweet romance with Gagan is both old-fashioned and modern, while her bond with her mother is the best thing in the movie.

It has its heart in the right place. If only it had kept a check on its lungs, it might have been a winner.

Overall, with its runtime of two hours, Rashmi Rocket does a fine job of keeping us hooked till the finish line. Watch it and you won't regret it.

"Rashmi Rocket" is admittedly well-intentioned so it's hard to call it anything less than an okay movie. I thought the social messages were good, but this movie is so so in its execution. I felt like the movie has a lot of over-dramatic moments and every second of it definitely feels like a movie. This is fine if you watch the movie for entertainment value, but it feels conflicted because it clearly wants to be about something more, and it never feels realistic. I think if you watch the movie to see some entertaining sports montages and courtroom drama, it is an acceptable movie, but it feels like it could have been something a lot greater if it approached the story from a more realistic lens.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
