Lightweight, feel good movie. Nuf said. Early Kiera Knightly as a not so believable footballer.
Its Okay, because you can watch it with anyone!
Much better than the average teen film. A story of love, friendship, growing up and Indian and British culture. A sweet, well told story.
I will be forever be devastated that the two girls didn't end up together. Great movie
Great movie if you are feeling bland or bored ;)
It's got some bollywood stars in it, some Hollywood stars and some grounded, realistic romance.
a movie i grew up with, friendship at the heart
Like every British person, I was forced to watch this like 20 times in school. Fun! Should have been lesbians tho
Fun teenage movie! Enjoyed it back then, still do today... Cast and characters are great and play well together!
Coming of age story about following your dreams and trying to meet the expectations of others. And learning that it doesn’t work. Love it
