We begin in 2011 in Lahore. At an outdoor café a Pakistani man named Changez (Riz Ahmed) tells Bobby (Liev Schreiber), an American journalist, about his experiences in the United States. Roll back ten years, and we find a younger Changez fresh from Princeton, seeking fortune and glory on Wall Street. The American Dream seems well within his grasp, complete with a smart and gorgeous artist girlfriend, Erica (Kate Hudson). But when the Twin Towers are attacked, a cultural divide slowly begins to crack open between Changez and Erica. Changez's dream soon begins to slip into nightmare: profiled, wrongfully arrested, strip-searched and interrogated, he is transformed from a well-educated, upwardly mobile businessman to a scapegoat and perceived enemy. With time, he begins to hear the call of his own homeland. Taking us through the culturally rich and beguiling worlds of New York, Lahore and Istanbul, The Reluctant Fundamentalist is a story about conflicting ideologies where perception and suspicion have the power to determine life or death.

Review For Movie The Reluctant Fundamentalist
It's a timely narrative subject, but its treatment in The Reluctant Fundamentalist is fundamentally flawed.Robert Everett-Green-Globe and Mail
Nair has found a real gem in Riz Ahmed, who anchors the film with a charismatically watchable performance. He's in virtually every frame and you hang on his every word.
Bruce Demara-Toronto Star
Ambiguity is at the heart of the novel, but Nair is never quite sure what to do with it.
Ty Burr-Boston Globe
As a culture-clash story the film works well enough, but as a character study it's a bit of a scramble.
Tom Long-Detroit News
It most disappoints as a thriller, the flashbacks and voiceovers and romantic entanglements so dominating the proceedings you forget that someone is bound and gagged in real time.
Barbara VanDenburgh-Arizona Republic
There's much to enjoy in 'The Reluctant Fundamentalist': fine photography, juicy supporting turns from Kiefer Sutherland and Om Puri, and a powerfully sustained sense of a man adrift in a world going mad.
Tom Huddleston-Time Out
A provocative, ambitious drama about the unconsidered assumptions that power our cultures, for good or ill.
MaryAnn Johanson-Flick Filosopher
Despite some promising moments, it never quite coheres into a convincing story. It's worth seeing... but it ultimately feels like a missed opportunity - like a pedant groping for a profundity beyond his moral ken.
Philip Martin-Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
Reasonably thoughtful, moderately engaging material dealing with some thorny issues. It may be a catalyst for intelligent conversation, which is more than you can say for most movies.
Eric D. Snider-About.com
The film seems to dance around the idea of being really critical of America-of analogizing American "exceptionalism" with Islamic fundamentalism-and instead resolves itself with an ending more befitting of a beauty pageant contestant's speech.
Meredith Slifkin-Film Comment Magazine
The film's international intrigue is unlikely to resonate too closely with today's headlines because of a conventional approach that alternates between a mechanical thriller and a shallow if provocative character study.
Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com
The very fact that Nair -- who is very at home on the subject of culture clashes -- tackled a thriller is noteworthy, as is the fact that she doesn't blow it.
Ken Hanke-Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
A notable cast - and noble intentions - can't elevate what is a very ordinary film.
Simon Miraudo-Quickflix
The film from writer William Wheeler and director Mira Nair ("Monsoon Wedding') is smart and complex, as unwilling to cling to one ideology as its protagonist.
Rob Thomas-Capital Times (Madison, WI)
A confronting and compelling look at post-9/11 racism in America.
Tom Glasson-Concrete Playground
Novelistic film wants to spark discussion about race and fear
Marty Mapes-Movie Habit
Flashes of a great novel don't overcome missteps
Robert Denerstein-Movie Habit
Director Mira Nair is eager to explore the long-range effects of post-9/11 paranoia, but can't quite get the film's thriller element to click.
Jim Schembri-3AW
This film version morphs its uncertainties into big screen clichés.
Frances Morton-Flicks.co.nz
As Nair's film forgoes provocation for pandering, it assumes a tragic air, albeit not for the reasons she intended.
Curtis Woloschuk-Willamette Week
It highlights the up-and-down nature of the film - some parts are compelling while other parts are unconvincing.
Matthew Toomey-ABC Radio Brisbane
William Wheeler has forged a richly complex, achingly satisfying screenplay from Mohsin Hamid's hugely popular, Booker Prize shortlisted novel and Mira Nair has turned it into a significant and powerful film with something to say
Andrew L. Urban-Urban Cinefile
Riz Ahmed delivers a towering performance as Changez, the son of a Pakistani poet who achieves the American Dream before finding his own truth
Louise Keller-Urban Cinefile
One's interest is diminished as the dramatic focus becomes unclear, petering out in well-meaning rhetorical confusion.
Philip French-Observer [UK]
Ambitious and thought-provoking yet ultimately uneven, The Reluctant Fundamentalist is elevated - and saved - by a stunning central performance from Riz Ahmed.
Stephen Carty-Flix Capacitor
A lurching, stuttering drama, one whose intentions are far better than its sense of storytelling rhythm.
Mike Scott-Times-Picayune
