Review by: Manisha Lakhe
We like stories of unlikely ordinary men who obey the call of extraordinary circumstances and turn out to be heroes. The story of one of the largest rescues is nicely packaged here as a movie and presented with Akshay Kumar at his earnest best. It takes its own sweet time to set up, but when the story proceeds, it literally 'takes off'.

Review by: Raja Sen - rediff
Airlift is compelling, thanks largely to a sterling performance from Akshay Kumar -- who is both suitably weary and suitably level-headed for the part -- enough to anchor the proceedings.

Review by: Ananya Bhattacharya - India Today
Raja Krishna Menon's tale of the largest evacuation in the history of the world is gritty, edge-of-the-seat and heart-stopping. However, despite all the brilliance, the last bit of the film looks hurried.
