Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
When one of the most enlightening moments of a film comes during the postscript (black holes!), you know there's a problem - one that has nothing to do with math.
– Marsha Lederman,
Globe and Mail,
20 May 2016
fresh:
[It] takes an incredible true story - about an impoverished Indian man whose Jedi math skills helped him triumph over race, class and bad food in early 20th century England - and telescopes it into a well-made yet predictable tale of inspiration.
– Cary Darling,
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com,
12 May 2016
fresh:
The multiplexes are full of films that promise little more than a forgettable good time. "The Man Who Knew Infinity" is just as entertaining, but far more substantial.
– Calvin Wilson,
St. Louis Post-Dispatch,
12 May 2016
fresh:
It's predictable - throughout the film, I kept thinking that I'd seen it before - and a bit sentimental, yet thoroughly pleasant.
– Moira MacDonald,
Seattle Times,
12 May 2016
fresh:
The Man Who Knew Infinity stands on its own merit, thanks in great measure to Patel and Irons, who give us two engaging characters.
– Miriam Di Nunzio,
