      Audience Member Very nice enjoyed it much.....good to see Arabs and Jews getting along. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member This is an exceptional movie with feminist subversion of Arranged marriage stereotypes. The main characters are educated women educators and I loved it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie attempts to create a heartwarming story but fails to go all they way and create a mess instead. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member A little heavy on the stereotypes sometimes however it is a film that portrays the struggles of being embedded in a culture that is not necessarily understood by those around you. A meaningful film that shows the importance of friendship and the limits our culture and individuality may unknowingly place on us. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member The point of view in this movie is pretty black and white: religious people are good, non-religous go to wild parties (as Rochel's cousin does) and are narrow-minded (the school principal). A more nuanced approach to arranged marriage and the family pressures would have made this movie much more believable. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Really sweet. If life were only as simple as portrayed in this film of the friendship between a Muslim and a Jewish girl - each required by their heritage to enter into arranged marriages. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Elizabeth Weitzman New York Daily News For a movie meant to shake viewers out of their ignorance, this clunky drama sure does indulge in a lot of stereotypes. Rated: 2/4 Dec 14, 2007 Full Review Jeannette Catsoulis New York Times In Arranged two devout Brooklyn schoolteachers clutch hands across the religious divide as their respective families prepare to marry them off. Rated: 2.5/5 Dec 14, 2007 Full Review Ronnie Scheib Variety Precise lensing, a strong sense of locale and vibrant, eminently likeable perfs enliven Arranged. Dec 13, 2007 Full Review Daniel M. Kimmel The Jewish Advocate Maybe real life isn't as neat as portrayed here. In that case, the drawback is with reality, not the movie. Aug 11, 2009 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...a slight yet thoroughly charming little effort... Rated: 3.5/4 Mar 20, 2008 Full Review Kam Williams NewsBlaze Even if the cross-cultural camaraderie looks a little easy to achieve, here, aren't movies sometimes supposed to point towards the path of peace and reconciliation?
