June 6, 2009This is a modern Romeo and Juliet movie, set in Glascow. The star-crossed lovers are a Muslim and a lapsed Catholic. A good little film with insightful social commentary.

July 30, 2008Here is an extraordinary movie with an intriguing story plot. This movie follows the life and love of Roisin and Casim. When you love, you cannot help who you fall for and nor do you expect when it happens. Great cast. Fantastic music. Definitely worth seeing.

October 29, 2008An adorable love story in Romeo and Juliet style. His family is Muslim and very traditional - she is a backsliding Catholic, but their love overcomes all of these obstacles in the end. It is too bad that his family can't except her - the ending would have been perfect then.

September 26, 2008This movie could have been so much better except that every argument that didn't include both main actors was absolutely terrible and seemed badly improvised. Also, Casim's best friend was a huge hypocrite with no real case. This could have been an amazing film, but the fact that...( read more)
