Just perfect...

How sad is this?

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Nice.And interesting or mixture of different elements. British life style and Muslim rules, image of worlds in the sensitivity of the other, a film legend as wist imaginary friend, gay spice and a mother as clone of Sophia Loren.Weding, confessions, crumbs of past and smart dialog. A comedy without great ambitions or big errors. But, in same time, a kind of experiment. In a global village, the differences are more important than common colors. And this is the basic ingredient. The social/cultural role of everybody. The way to honest speech. And the heavy ,small fears.May be an artificial pledge. Or slice for weekend. But in this case, the aspects are not different. Only the exotic Cary Grant is more seductive.

I am a fan of Kyle MacLachlan from his Twin Peaks days and good reviews of his performance as Cary Grant led me to watch this movie. I'm sorry I did because it saddened me to see him reduced to acting in a movie of this caliber. The script never met a cliché it didn't like and I knew where immediately how the story would end. (I was right.) Jimi Mistri was not the right choice to play Alim. He was clearly uncomfortable with the gay kissing scenes and the rest of his performance ranged from morose to more morose. He does a lot of his acting by widening his eyes. I got the impression Suleka Mathew is a good actress but her character was poorly written--so manipulative and unpleasant one moment and so effortlessly transformed the next. Finally, the lighting, the sets, the staging all scream "we can't spend a lot of money on this production."

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***Well, folks, here we have a 2004 'Bollywood' rip of.........er, ahem.........I mean, take off on Ang Lee's "The Wedding Banquet" (1993). And speaking of take offs, the one around which this film centers, involving a very suave and debonair one-time romantic idol, is run into the ground after awhile. Enough can be enough, Cary........er, ahem........I mean, 'Kyle-y'.If Mistry is ever to become a romantic lead, but winds up kissing his female leads no better than he does his male lead here, then he'd better head back to the old 'College of Osculation'-------loosen up, Jimi (a kiss is just a kiss, a mouth is just a mouth..........the fundamental things apply.....).While there are a few cute things in this "rom-com," male lead, Mistry, is just a little too unconvincing. Fortunately, this is not true of Kristen Holden-Reid, who does a terrific job playing boyfriend, Giles. If Supporting Actor nominations were given for films like this, which of course they're not, his name should be one of the first up there.PS: While Suleka (Sue) Matthew, as Mama Nuru, is a physically lovely woman, her character certainly can be a little taxing at times. Overall, though, she's quite fun.

Both gay, acting so nice. And Kristen......u r amazing. Is there anybody know how to contact him? is he married or what? How old is he, does he have any website that I can visit? That's all because i'm so amaze with Kristen, I don't know what's wrong with him, but i'm so so so attracted to him. The idea is good, but I'm not agree with gay. I think it would be nice if the story change with normal ending, which is mean, the gay men meet their truelove that female not male. By the way, I like Kristen Holden-Reid, I'm desperately want to see him or at least got all information about him. PLease,,,,show me how to contact him, is there anybody could help me with these things?
