Gatlif, who wrote and directed the film, and Eric Guichard, his cinematographer, have done well.
Anita Gates, New York Times
Fresh
It has a spontaneity and freshness rare in movies.
Peter Stack, San Francisco Chronicle
Fresh
Gatlif's raw, open-ended approach results in some slow patches, but the ground-level look at gypsy culture never feels less than authentic.
Robert Horton, Film.com
Fresh
A vigorous, noisy, sometimes electrifying film.
