Ila, une jeune femme délaissée par son mari, se met en quatre pour tenter de le reconquérir en lui préparant un savoureux déjeuner. Elle confie ensuite sa lunchbox au gigantesque service de livraison qui dessert toutes les entreprises de Bombay. Le soir, Ila attend de son mari des compliments qui ne viennent pas. En réalité, la Lunchbox a été remise accidentellement à Saajan, un homme solitaire, proche de la retraite. Comprenant qu'une erreur de livraison s'est produite, Ila glisse alors dans la lunchbox un petit mot, dans l'espoir de percer le mystère. (Happiness Distribution)

Poétiquement réfléchi, amusant et triste, et surtout un très BEAU film. Irrfan Khan rend intéressante même l'ouverture des boîtes de nourriture avec son jeu d'acteur minimaliste, que nous ne percevons pas. Une ouverture et une expression typiquement indiennes des personnages par les dialogues et surtout par le MONTAGE. Magnifiquement écrit ! La solitude, la recherche et au moment décisif (maudit soit-il !) l'hésitation. Dans un endroit où il y a tellement de gens et où tous veulent ce que les autres ont. Même un mauvais train peut nous conduire au bon endroit. Nous ne devons simplement pas le manquer.

Irrfan Khan is my favorite Indian actor and I was looking forward to Inferno more because of him than Hanks. He showcases his mastery in The Lunchbox. But the film isn't just about him; it's about great characters, a beautiful platonic romance, and a concept that's almost in the style of absurd theater. I think it's beautiful!

The Lunchbox is one of the few things that enter your soul and never get out of it again. It actually tells a story of something I didn’t know of until I found out about it through this movie. I admit that I still know only very little to judge our whole world, but this network of delivery guys that has been delivering lunches to employees of various Indian factories for more than a hundred years got to me completely. I don’t understand the precision, accuracy, punctuality, and most of all functionality. Everything with a grain of salt, of course, because nothing is perfect and it is because of that one imperfection that this nice movie, which is so beautiful visually that it is almost sad, was created. Meetings like this can only happen because of destiny itself. Or do you have some other explanation?

When I hear about European coproduction with Indian cinema, I feel the scent of Bollywood in the air, wherein more lively nonsense is created with European money in exotic settings. Fortunately, this film has much more in common with French and German festival productions than with Indian dream factory productions. I take my hat off to Ritesh Batra for his feature debut. This kind of melancholic romance appealed to me, although the sobering ending of the film may not be digestible for everyone. With this film, the director brutally returns from carefree optimism to the real world, where certain knowledge and decisions simply hurt. I estimate that the film has a chance to appeal more to viewers of the age of movie heroes, who already know how life goes. Overall impression: 90%. By the way, Nimrat Kaur is truly beautiful.
