The upside:Quote from Chicago tribune dated December 28,2001;
Lagaan; A wondrously mad and enjoyable nearly four hour Bollywood historial epic about a protean 19th century soccer match bewteen the British colonial offericers team and Indian locals: jucily entertaining,full of songs, romance, spectale, action and a long, slambang "Rocky"-like battle royal (Chicago fest).
The downside: 1) It's listed as a runner-up at # 9.
2) Tribune called cricket soccer.
Doesn't matter even if it's listed a runner up, I really enjoyed it.
