Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
The true-crime drama Provoked has everything to offer except a cinematic point of view and a knack for depicting human beings under duress. Those are major drawbacks.
– Michael Phillips,
Chicago Tribune,
17 May 2007
rotten:
Provoked rarely ducks below its glossy surface.
– Ty Burr,
Boston Globe,
18 May 2007
rotten:
[Director] Mundhra can't control the expansiveness of the melodrama or focus on the terseness of realism. Every character in Provoked, from victims to tyrants, Indian to English, loud to quiet, ends up as a grossly exaggerated comic creation.
– Kamal Al-Solaylee,
Globe and Mail,
18 May 2007
rotten:
The script is melodramatic, and Rai's lead performance is thin stuff.
– Walter V. Addiego,
San Francisco Chronicle,
18 May 2007
rotten:
The real-life heroes in this story deserve better than a formulaic, poorly shot melodrama.
– Richard Roeper,
Ebert & Roeper,
