Actuakers One of my all time favorites.

FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

nekait_rr The movie (seems more like a documentary, though long) is good, a good once a worth watch time pass but clearly does not depict Indians. There might be some special cases but not all bag are douche bag. Never mind, a good to see comic case of a special middle class Indian moving to Western world and watch it out for fun.All the comments by other users above this one are true and genuine. the funny situation lies with the acting - the cousin sings outside his gf's house 'hum dil de chuke sanam' and the one when the friends act like a gujrati and punjabi. And the punjabi daddy is awesome.The two girls were just OK but the guys rocked with acting skills.

Aam Aadmi One of the worst home videos that someone dared to make copies of and tried to distribute. This movie (if you can call it that) is full of 2 things -- ethnic stereotypes and racial slurs.There are no actors in it (and therefore no acting to speak of). There is no storyline or plot so if the direction was sloppy it didn't matter much. It is supposed to be about the tension between newly arrived and settled immigrants with regard to their lifestyles, habits, and so on. And also perhaps about the generation gap between 1st Gen. parents and their 2nd Gen. (or Gen. X) US-born-and-raised kids. Had it been thought out and skilfully done, it could have examined/explored a whole variety of issues confronting immigrants of every size, shape and color. And in so doing, transcend racial, ethnic and other divisions. But it ended up becoming a caricature of US-based Indian expatriates, and a ghastly one at that.There are many decent-to-excellent options in the low-budget/indie film category that can be viewed as an alternative. A better name for this movie is "Where's the Potty Yaar?".

SuccessfulSeductress This is a great movie about an Indian boy coming to America to find his dream girl. This movie is good with the perfect balance between a good story and funny moments. I can also relate to some of the people in this films who say things like "I'm not Indian, I'm Sri-Lankan", I have to say that all the time when people assume I'm Indian. I have heard many complaints about the racist aspects of this movie. I am a Sri-Lankan and I have to say that the racist comments don't bother me one bit, they just make the movie funnier. I personally thought this movie was a blend between some of the bollywood Indian movies and the Hollywood American movies as it presented contrasting styles between both.If you are looking for a simple, entertaining movie, then this is the one for you.

sumiq36 This movie is hilarious. In the top shelf of the growing genre of indo-american movies. In the Indie tradition of disregarding political correctness, this movie doesn't take itself too seriously. The plot is age-old but the context brings the freshness to the story. It is well scripted and not afraid to make the "bad joke" a joke. The stereotypes are all present but unlike the generic, lame "one-label-fits-all" Indian stereotype found in the main stream, this movie takes the time to go beyond that and get reqional. These are characters we can relate to or know of. Hari (Sunil Malhotra) as the FOB (Fresh-off-the-Boat) Indian in Houston and Mohan (Kal Penn) as the ABCD (American Born Confused Desi) play out the conflicts of these two groups. But its also the characters we meet on the way that colors this film riveting. Sunil Malhotra and Kal Penn are great but I think Sunil Thakkar steals the show as the "King of the FOBs" - Shyam Sunder Balabhadrapatramukhi.
