Critics Reviews Average Grade:   C
Source Brief Review Grade*
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Eleanor Ringel Gillespie
"Loser movie." more... C-
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
"...aspires to tell Cuba's modern political history and celebrate its people without introducing us to a single believable character." more... D  
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
"At 143 minutes, the movie is too long, but it has a lot to cover and a lot to say, and I imagine Garcia has a reason every scene is necessary." more... B  
Chicago Tribune
Michael Wilmington
"...a film that breaks your heart, bewilders, alienates and ravishes you by turns." more... B  
E! Online "They say history is written by the victors, but there are no winners in The Lost City." more... C+
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
"...it's a glazed and dolorous movie -- a depressed epic." more... C  
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
"...heartfelt - but hackneyed and interminable..." more... D  
New York Times
Stephen Holden
"Incoherent, but splendidly panoramic and drenched in wonderful Cuban music..." more... C  
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
"Long on feeling and short on brains..." more... C+
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
Sean Axmaker
"...for all the color and lively music, it's an overlong, messy labor of love built on a sense of personal betrayal that rings hollow." more... C
