Critics are hailing this film is "intense, hair-raising, and deeply humane… a suspenseful achievement" (New York Observer).

Ratings and reviews

in every special film there is a moment where emotion is captured so the audience can feel the strength this special trancendence. most most films that can achieve this feat it only lasts a few seconds May it be mutter of sudden Rush of tears are happiness and a quiver that is extremely rare for a director and producer actors together to make happen to another human being from watching. in this film they make that sudden feeling rush through your body.... for more than minutes you will feel this

Hotel Mumbai is the terrifying, yet emotional true story of something that should have never happened. The account of the events in the film is done very well and there is a suspense to it that is scary. Using beautiful shots and shock tension Hotel Mumbai is one of the many really good true story films.

One of the most intense movies I've seen. Not something you want to watch on date night or with your kids. This is a very serious somber movie. Good acting but a very sad true story.
