Pudi and his co actors really gave the film warmth, humor and kindness. It is a feel good film that also quietly points toward some of the struggles immigrants can face in the US. It left me feeling a bit uplifted and hopeful, no small feat these days.

I received a recommendation to see this movie and I was not disappointed. I enjoyed watching it immensely and spent most of it chuckling to myself. It is a beautiful story and the perspective it was shown from was actually quite refreshing. The actors also did a wonderful job! Whilst everyone is entitled to their own opinion, you shouldn't let the negative review put you off - it's worth a try at the very least! :)

This wasn't a laugh-out-loud kind of movie, but it definitely wasn't a bad one. It's easy for me to get confused during movies, but this one was easy to follow. It's a good story told from an interesting point of view that I haven't really seen before. Also, Danny Pudi is an awesome actor! I wouldn't advise anyone to go into this movie expecting it to be a hilarious oscar winner or anything, but it was a good story that left me smiling. It's worth a watch, I'd say.

This was a light hearted comedy that at the same time identified some of the current systemic problems in American manufacturing industry today. Not giving credit to the real engineers who can actually fix this stuff.

I went into this movie expecting the worst, after reading another review but was totally surprised by this movie. I enjoyed it, a lot. I do not normally write reviews but I thought I had to add another perspective to the one that nearly made me miss out on watching this movie. Okay it wasn't laugh out loud, though I did find myself chuckling more than half a dozen times, this was a heart warming story about the underdog rising from his position. Not to harrowing heights but to his rightful place. It was about one man uncovering the true treasures in life. Friendship, respect and yes, love. I liked it because it was told from a totally different and quite a quirky perspective. The world is different and this was another side to the multi faceted coin called life. I walked out of this movie with a smile on my face and made me once again believe in the goodness of people. One reviewer had us believe the movie was chaotic but I had no problems following the story as it was simply laid out with its mixture of flashbacks and real time. Set in the late seventies India and America. It showed us another viewpoint. It showed America as a land, people in far off countries, often though of as a place of unlimited opportunities and freedom. Although the reality was far from the truth. It showed a love story that not only felt real, it's a reality for many people facing parental expectations and arranged marriages. This movie also showed us that even though America didn't live up to its initial expectations, it was still a land that offered freedoms that their home countries didn't. It showed them happy in there lot. A place where even a street sweeper owned a car. One reviewer would have us believe that the actors didn't seem to enjoy themselves in the making of this movie yet I felt that is far from the truth. I just saw them having fun with it all under the guise of making this entertaining movie. Will it win an Oscar, no. But it definitely isn't a waste of an hour and a half of your time.

After watching Community I'd watch about anything with Pudi. This was entertaining enough but it really needed some focus and polish. Pudi was charming, as was Manji and even Heder but the rest of the movie is so generic and underwhelming. I appreciate the diversity of the film and it is funny at times, it just doesn't do anything particularly well. Fortunately, the charm of Pudi, Manji and Heder loft this up a bit but not enough for me to give it a strong recommend. Makes for good background noise though.

A hilarious movie about the son of an Indian tiger hunter who is an engineer himself, and wants to make it big in American so as to win over the father of his childhood.

Sorry, I know not everyone here has immigrant parents. I just meant that if you have parents or family members who immigrated in the late 70s/early 80s, or if you yourself immigrated during that time (and especially if you are South Asian), you might find a lot you can relate to. I don't have immigrant parents either. In fact, I'm the one who immigrated. But things are SO different now compared to 10 years before I was born. I do have family members who immigrated during the time period in which this movie is set, and they are constantly reminding me how much easier I have it compared to them. And they would tell me stories like the ones you see play out on the screen. And watching it all happen, does make me appreciate my life so much. Because I had the support of those who immigrated from my part of the world in the 80s, I have a support system that they never had. I'm making it sound like the movie is a downer, but it's really not. It's a pretty standard by-the-book comedy. As a comedy, I can't say much for it. But it does offer a perspective that is very rare in Western cinema. The movie follows an Indian guy called Sami Malik as he decides to chase the American Dream. But while Sami is the protagonist, you do get to meet a large cast of secondary and minor characters who are also immigrants from all over South Asia (and even North Africa). And it was nice to see that this movie at least briefly acknowledged the diversity within South Asia. I will definitely be recommending this to all those immigrant relatives, and I'm sure they will enjoy this, but I also wonder if other immigrant communities might also find a lot here they can relate to. And as for those whose ancestors moved to America many generations ago, I think you can still get a nice sense of how the idea of America appealed so much to people from countries with limited opportunities.
