American Desi

This movie is about a young student's discovery of how good it is to be an Indian, how good Indian women are and how good old jokes can sound.

A predictable and enjoyable movie that gets lost where all the movies made so far about the immigration experience get lost -- old jokes and a love related revelation.

There are some funny Indian students with their funny families and funny accents and funny eating and partying habits. Stuck up American desi who falls in love with an unstuck Indian girl and learns to accept it.

What I was hoping for is some probing, some serious effort, some real issues being tackled.

I guess this is a good beginning and we can expect some movies of substance in the future.
