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

Precise lensing, a strong sense of locale and vibrant, eminently likeable perfs enliven Arranged.

Maybe real life isn't as neat as portrayed here. In that case, the drawback is with reality, not the movie.

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?

This is an exceptional movie with feminist subversion of Arranged marriage stereotypes. The main characters are educated women educators and I loved it.

This movie attempts to create a heartwarming story but fails to go all they way and create a mess instead.

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.

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

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
