Superb
By Justin Evans from Swansea , 21 Feb 2005[Highly rated reviewer]
Great film measuring the lows of the british society and their reaction to almost any situation they dont understand. This film was on Channel four a couple of weeks ago and got to see it by accident really. Acting is superb and the script even better, full marks to cast and crew who all gave wonderful performances. Do not miss this film.- Was this review helpful to you?

Fab film - although not quite as depicted on the cover
By a customer from Birmingham, England , 27 Oct 2007This film gives insight into being a Muslim woman in the 21st century living in the UK. It touches on some serious racial and social issues, and looks at the effects of community practices from different angles.
The movie provides plenty of food for thought, although hardly revolves around the relationship between Yasmin and the English man who is allegedly the object of her affections, as mentioned in the easycinema description. Instead it explores other relationships - Yasmin's relationship with her family, her father, her refugee 'husband', her colleagues and her neighbours.
One to watch if you feel like furthering your knowledge of multi-cultural Britain. It sounds heavy, but the director has cleverly managed to express serious political issues in an 'easy-to-absorb' manner.- Was this review helpful to you?
