Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: What distinguishes "Fonzy" is its attention to Diego's Galician roots.
Fresh: The comic plot of Fonzy is outrageous, but to writer-director Isabelle Doval, it's just an armature that supports its gently funny characters and its themes of emotional and filial connections.
Rotten: Apparently there is an Indian version in the works; perhaps eventually, by UN decree, there will be one from every country in the world.
