Yes, writer Shamim Sarif has managed a believable and engaging romantic comedy that doesn't end in someone jumping off or setting fire to a building, and I think that deserves something special. Go to Full Review Jon Williams Little White Lies 04/03/2009
1/5
It's such a mish-mash of terrible ideas next to sincere and affecting themes that it never really works and repeatedly sabotages any recommendation. Go to Full Review Sarah Cohen Time Out 04/03/2009
2/6

The writing and direction is often clumsy and there are wobbly performances... but Ray and Sheth have engaging screen presences and real chemistry. Go to Full Review Amber Wilkinson Eye for Film 04/10/2009
1/5
If the plot is cheese, it never rises above the level of a Dairylea triangle Go to Full Review Edward Porter Sunday Times (UK) 04/09/2009
