Kondabolu and friends wonder what can be done about Apu now and there's nobody around to make it into a real conversation. Still, there's great virtue in getting that conversation started and, in under an hour, The Problem with Apu does that well. Nov 19, 2017 | Full Review…

The Problem with Apu often unfolds like a movie-length Daily Show segment -- and that's a compliment -- deftly outlining the stereotypes South Asian people still struggle with in media depictions. Nov 19, 2017 | Full Review…

Kondabolu argues that with so few media depictions of characters of Indian descent, just one can disproportionately shape how an entire culture is seen by American viewers. Nov 17, 2017 | Full Review…

Kondabolu isn't exactly reinventing the wheel here, but he's clearly got a strong sense of how New Media works and where the conversation about his film will be most hotly debated. Oct 31, 2018 | Rating: 3 | Full Review…

What we're ultimately left with is a very funny and timely film that points out how racism has so permeated our culture to the point that many can't even see it. Aug 14, 2018 | Rating: A | Full Review…

Kondabolu raises some troubling questions. I'll never be able to watch "The Simpsons" without thinking about this again. Nov 20, 2017 | Full Review…

It's a must-see, in fact, especially if it makes us uncomfortable. Because it's [Hari] Kondabolu, at least we'll laugh through the discomfort. Nov 20, 2017 | Full Review…

[Hari] Kondabolu is a patient and deliberate interviewer, pushing and pulling back in equal measure, bringing out moments of real vulnerability in some subjects and allowing others to wrap themselves in the contradictions of their own arguments. Nov 20, 2017 | Rating: 8.5/10 | Full Review…
