A young woman (Pooja Kumar) rebels when her parents bring her back to the United States from Pakistan to enter into an arranged marriage.

Jami Bernard

New York Daily News

First time writer-director-producer Hassan Zee follows a well-worn theme -- the clash between generations of new immigrants -- in this mildly pleasant movie.

Rated: 2/4

Offers no surprises as it wends its way to a contrived happy ending.

A.O. Scott

New York Times

Mr. Zee's attempt to marry American-style realism with the big, artificial emotions of Indian and Pakistani popular film does not quite work, in spite of the evident love he brings to the project.

Rated: 2/5

Lisa Rose

Newark Star-Ledger

Writer-director Hassan Zee makes naive storytelling choices that diminish the drama of the piece and muddle the message of cultural tolerance.

Rated: 1/4
