  yes it is a formula, but it is exceedingly well done. Lots of actors I've never seen, all of them more or less hitting perfect notes. A feel-good movie, very warm. A movie is never quite what you expect- this one was much more involving and enjoyable than I ever would have expected. I even tried to see it again, but my immature nephew insisted on Anger Management. Now there is a real "waste of film stock"!

  i was pleasantly surprised (low expectations mebbe)...saw it last friday night. lots of cliches and a bit of sappiness if you already know the stereotypes. def helps if you know a bit of the culture to get some of the jokes.

  not a surprise it did well in the UK...US is less familiar with indian life. when the sister or our protagonist enters, i turned to my gf and said "damn! thats YOUR sister!" lots of that during the movie.

  go see it.

  later,
  chiggy
