Critic Reviews for Bazodee

All Critics (4) | Top Critics (3) | Fresh (2) | Rotten (2)

The film never weaves together its various strands as tightly as the soundtrack does, and it's unlikely that those unfamiliar with the cultures of the Caribbean will understand where everyone is coming from.

Denise Balkissoon
Globe and Mail
Fails to capture either the freewheeling, joyous spirit of the Caribbean or the heady euphoria of blossoming romance.

Variety
Pretty and upbeat, if insubstantial.

Hardly world-shaking, but a nice, very smoothly executed summer refreshment.
