Movie Review: LION

Lion is a 2016 awards season film about a young boy, Saroo, in India who gets accidentally separated from his home and eventually adopted by a family in Australia and his quest, as an adult, to find his family again. The film is directed by Garth Davis and stars Dev Patel, Nicole Kidman, David Wenham, Rooney Mara, and Sunny Pawar. Overall, I didn’t enjoy the film but it has some qualities that might redeem it and make it worthwhile for some audience members.
