Each one tells the other the history of how they met their significant other. The two obviously have an affinity for each other, but nothing comes of it after the train arrives. Surprisingly the two couples end up at the same establishment, leading to some surprising revelations. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi

Critic Reviews

Michael Dequina, TheMovieReport.com
The deliriously exhilarating twenty-minute dance climax plays like an open dare to the audience to not jhoom, barabar, jhoom--and only the most severe of grumps won't succumb to the spell of the siren song.

Maitland McDonagh, TV Guide's Movie Guide
Now that's entertainment.

Frank Lovece, Film Journal International
It would be a spoiler to describe the specific complications those crazy kids get into, but it's a ball.

David Chute, L.A. Weekly
Flirtatious repartee between glamorous stars in travel-poster international locations; a gratifyingly simple plot with puzzles and sleight-of-hand surprises; and, at regular intervals, outbursts of gaudy, energetic dancing infectiously exploding.
-
Jason Ferguson, Orlando Weekly
Jhoom is an empty, frivolous and thoroughly calculating bit of fluff; it's also ridiculously enjoyable.
