Omid as his usual brilliant self!
By a customer from Beddington , 18 Apr 2010[Highly rated reviewer]
This movie was a pleasure to watch!Religion and related subjects are taken so seriously these days, that for me it was just a breath of fresh air that someone had the brilliant idea to make a movie addressing the issue.Omid was brilliant as always, although he is at his best being funny. The very serious parts were believable but a little too theatrical and over the top. But the movie worked for me.With people in Britain becoming so over PC about everything it seems, it's really a necessity to make more movies like this. Being able to laugh at matters that we deem serious is important AND Healthy.Having said that, I noticed a few people get up and leave in the middle of the movie, no doubt 'offended' (why go and see the movie then?), still I guess some people were just not blessed with a sense of humour!I do hope they find a solution to their predicament: being able to laugh at oneself and at life is a concept to be upheld and applauded!- Was this review helpful to you?

(185)What a relief
By 117Penguin (13 reviews) , 06 May 2013[Highly rated reviewer]
Beside the fact that Omid Djalili is a nauturally funny guy, this is a fun and easy going film that shows the complexities of two major religions in a lighthearted and humorous way and how if taken in the right way they need not be a hindrance in how you interact with others. Religion is always taken so heavily recently so it is a real relief to see this handled is such a friendly, funny and ultimately heart warming way.- Was this review helpful to you?

By tee89 (8 reviews) , 24 Feb 2013[Highly rated reviewer]
Light hearted, very funny and doesn't take itself too seriously. Good story line, I was pleasantly surprised! Omid and the cast acted brilliantly.- Was this review helpful to you?

Rubbish film
By David1964 (2 reviews) , 04 Feb 2013Just like East is East without the humour or storyline. Badly written, poor acting and just plain boring. My advice choose something else.- Was this review helpful to you?

Topical and funny
By a customer , 03 Feb 2013Story is only ok, not great but the performances make this a hit in my book. Laugh out loud funny at times and makes you cringe a bit as well (in a good way though). I'd recommend it. Can see this might get close to offending some but not me personally.- Was this review helpful to you?
