Entertainment Reviews:
The actors have great rapport, discussing the importance of academic rigor and the quest for scientific immortality....It's kind of nice to see a movie more interested in intellectual sparring than the physical kind.
A.V. Club
The movie works. It tells an important story and it does make a meal out of the subject.

Rating: 6/10 --
Writer-director Matthew Brown keeps it simple, but even those of us who barely skated through high school math are left wanting more explanation of Ramanujan's influence.

Rating: 3.5/5 --
The period detailing - be it a rustic locale or sophisticated surroundings - is quite superb. Brown also tries to give the story an emotional touch, to good effect. And in fact, it is this which makes this film both enjoyable and gripping.

The Times of India
Mr. Irons handily hits the emotional beats, as does Mr. Patel...
New York Times
You can't help but wish that writer-director Matthew Brown had been able to find some way to impart to viewers the nature of Ramanujan's importance other than having his Trinity College sponsor (Jeremy Irons) rhapsodize about his brilliance.

The Public (Buffalo)
Helped in part by the excellent chemistry Patel has with Jeremy Irons, who, clearly enjoying himself in his role as the experienced mathematician, is able to bring a thoughtful meticulousness to Ramanujan’s more spontaneous ways of working.

Product Description:
This biopic from writer/director Matt Brown details the extraordinary life of renowned Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan (Dev Patel), who travels to England in 1913 to study at Cambridge. He faces prejudice there from many of his colleagues, but he also bonds with a professor named G.H. Hardy (Jeremy Irons). In time, Ramanujan authors a number of pioneering equations.
