No shortage of appetising ingredients here, yet the execution sadly fails to make the most of them. Go to Full Review Katie Smith-Wong Flick Feast 11/21/2019

Jadoo is the delightful result when you mix 'Bend it Like Beckham' meets 'Waitress'; a simple, enjoyable comedy that will make your stomach growl. Go to Full Review Ben Nicholson CineVue 03/02/2019
3/5
A warm comedy that neatly balances its specific and more general themes and is liberally seasoned with laughs. Go to Full Review Rich Cline Shadows on the Wall 09/13/2013

08/29/2016 Enjoyable light comedy about feuding brothers but the direction is handled extremely commercially. See more 03/04/2016 Had a high expectation of this movie but turn out to be not that good. Family conflict around Indian recipes was the backbone of the movie. Lacking Indian food footprints though is a pity. See more 04/17/2014 Never would've watched this if it hadn't been set in Leicester. The story was slight, and it felt like it ended about 15 minutes too early. But, on the whole OK-ish. See more 03/18/2014 Good film , funny Well made See more 11/26/2013 A gem of a film, funny, tender, crossing borders: a story of food, feud, family and live everyone can relate to. The cast is superb! More indie films pleaassse! See more 09/26/2013 ...the film isn't some horrible, unlikable mess. It's more just harmless and well-meaning but vague and uninvolving film that exists. At least it's short.
