hyped garbage

Good concept, poorly executed.

An Exercise In Nonsense

A different way of telling a story

I disagree with other reviews saying if you are not Armenian or something do not watch it. This movie was funny from start till end,I like the culture difference. and the stereotypes.My grandma is Armenian but I don't speak the language and never mingled with Armenians I bet any person who know a little a bit about other cultures or interested in other cultures will like it. I recommend the movie to any one some may like some may not.every person has a different taste its worth a try first time I hear Armenian language first i thought it was Turkish.............................

First things first, I understand/speak Armenian and even though the movie was made by Armenians the subtitles were wrong most of the time. Not recommended if you do not speak Armenian.The jokes were only funny if you are Armenian and know the stereotypes of the villagers in Armenia. They played with the stereotypes wonderfully, even if they exaggerated a bit. Again, as an Armenian speaking person i found this movie very funny and a really good watch. To add, most of my Armenian speaking friends and relatives have seen this film and they also loved it. You see where i'm going with this? its only funny to Armenians, and i'm sure that is who they were targeting. Let me help you understand a few scenes that can seem strange to non- Armenians: *Spoiler Alert*"You mean Glendale": When Jamie Kennedy says this line he is referencing Glendale, CA. Glendale is like a little Armenia. Most Hollywood types reference Glendale when speaking about Armenians because, if you didn't know, Glendale is in Los Angeles, and only a couple miles from Hollywood. The Kidnapping scene: The scene where the two guys kidnap Ani is a literal translation of "axchik paxtsanel" which translates to kidnapping a girl. but Armenians say "axchik paxtsanel" for eloping. so that scene was a literal translation of that common Armenian phrase, thus it was funny. The head smacks: many people in this movie get smacked in the head for saying stupid things. this is very common in Armenian culture, its essentially a sign from an elder that you are out of line. CONCLUSION: Overall i found this movie very funny, especially since i know a few of the actors personally having grown up in the same city as them, Glendale. If you speak Armenian it is definitely worth a watch. If you don't, i don't suggest it. 8/10

There were times I didn't like this movie. It moves very slowly and the story is a far fetched. But I can't help but like it. I kept cheering for the two leads to get together even though the whole thing seemed silly. Some of the characters were amazingly one dimensional, (Tahn, Buldo and George) and some of the villagers seemed unrealistic, PLUS, the whole kidnapping/rescue thing was ridiculous.....But I could put up with it for the scene of them getting together.Ended well, enjoyable, moves slowly, but eventually worth it. The girl is the movie.

I when to watch this movie with high hopes but sadly it did not live up to my expectations nor personal standards. This movie is very boring and personally I would advise everyone not to watch it. I did not like this movie purely because of the amount of foreign language used in it, although using subtitles I thought this was its main downfall. It raced straight into the climax without us getting to know any of the characters background/personal information or history. It drags on a lot and gets very boring throughout although having some exciting scenes I still felt that it was boring and not at all interesting. It was so bad that I had to leave the cinema before the movie had fully ended, therefor I do not know what happened at the end although I probably could have predicted it anyways for their was no thrills or laughs during the film, there for I rate this movie a: 1/10.Hope you have found this review helpful.
