American Desi Reviews
this is super cool... Not a complex storyline but it will make u laugh ur bottom off!!! :D
This movie is just too good...cant count the times I have seen it...need some more of this stuff....
This is an awesome movie...I remember watching it when I was driving by the local movie theater and the name intrigued me...Classic fillum of a great story about one recognizing and embracing his roots...This movie is filled with hilarious and unforgettable moments by all the main cast...I could possibly recite the entire movie while watching it, and it's been almost 9 years since it's release!!!...This is definitely a movie for everyone to watch to learn something about themselves or another culture...
Think of cliche from a romantic comedy. Go ahead, think one one now. Got one? Good. Whatever it is, I guarantee it's in American Desi. This film trows every cliche in the book, and then the book, at the audience. The film's intentions are good: How do second generation emigrants negotiate their identity? How does one reconcile heritage and a new culture? Surely there's a good film to be made with this in mind (East is East was quite good). Aside from American Desi's shallowness, contrived and cliche-ridden plot, it's simply poorly constructed. Bad framing, poor editing, awful acting (for the most part). A decent soundtrack, though. Also, who showers in the dark?
I thought I rated this already. Well, here goes... I saw this film like at least 12 times when it was all hyped about. It was just too good and hilarious!
We had to watch it in 10 parts via YouTube. Yes, this is an Indi(an) Film but it translates into most Asian cultures (mine being Korean). It is hilarious and so freakin' true :)
The only Desi picture I understand. :) Still, that email I got a few years ago was right, the mail goes 'If Spiderman was filmed in Bollywood...' and we have a picture of Spiderman dancing around on the screen. :) I would recommend this, it shows a part of all the immigrants to foreign countries regardless of race or gender.
[font=Arial]Katadre's acting was splendid, as the movie shows desis from all walks of life trying to fit in, and it's a wonder how these selected individuals live their lives.[/font]
Yet Another ABCD (American Born Confused Desi) Flick. Funny How Movies Of This Genre Share The Same Actors/Actresses. All We Need Is Kal Penn Now. Does Have A Lot Of Laugh Out Loud Moments & Nina Is Hot ;) A Lot Of Relatable Characters & I'm Pretty Sure I Heard 'Mundian To Bach Ke' In This!
