Aptly called Lion

Rating: 8/10 (10 May 2018)

Based on a true story, Lion is the kind of film that will make you cry.
A poor 5 year old kid called Saroo from MP, India gets lost and finds himself in survival mode in Kolkata. He is eventually adopted by a kind Australian couple. 25 years later he returns to find his family via google earth. A simple yet true story is turned into a tear-jerker by simply good acting (particularly Dev Patel) and some smart editing. Nice soundtrack too.
Recommended on a Sunday afternoon. And wait till you find out why it is called Lion.
