Chatverock Takes itself way too seriously

Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews

Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

zif ofoz The movie starts well enough with the Turkish setting and over enthusiastic friends. Then the flick starts on shaky ground once it goes to Armenia.There are too many plots and subplots to compete with Kennedy's attempt to get back to Turkey. The viewer needs a history lesson to actually understand the whats, and whys in the story plot line.The whole movie begins as a silly charming adventure comedy then becomes a serious romantic story in conflict with local customs in marriage arrangement. It just becomes unfunny, silly and with a very sugary ending.

sounik1 I thought this movie was brilliant: it's hard to lightly/humorously cover culture clash/romance/history/conflict all in one entertaining film, but this one does it. It's light and funny, it cuts through the more 'complicated' scenes that talk about the conflict between Turkey/Azerbaijan and Armenia with truth & humor, and most importantly, it tells a lighthearted, funny story about being (literally) thrown into a foreign culture.It was entertaining, funny, and beautifully shot. It completely transports the viewer to not only a different country, but also engages the viewer in the protagonist AND the antagonists at the same time. Brilliantly written.At the end of the day, what more can we ask for from a film?

jbar19 There were times I didn't like this movie. It moves very slowly and the story is a far fetched. But I can't help but like it. I kept cheering for the two leads to get together even though the whole thing seemed silly. Some of the characters were amazingly one dimensional, (Tahn, Buldo and George) and some of the villagers seemed unrealistic, PLUS, the whole kidnapping/rescue thing was ridiculous.....But I could put up with it for the scene of them getting together.Ended well, enjoyable, moves slowly, but eventually worth it. The girl is the movie.

awab_avril Okay, the movie was amazing in its parts about Armenian culture and it was shockingly true and funny at the same time. I am also very happy to see many actors from different nationalities here. So its not some stupid Americans depicting a foreigner and looking foolish. Anyhow, I really enjoyed most of the movie except for two parts that made me uncomfortable and a little irritated at the same time. The first part is the American actors in here. It might be funny but the characters were very obnoxious and for me they were the main reason why I am not giving this movie a 10! Very rude and stereotypical American tourist characters. Even when the tourist was in Armenia, he was very irritating to watch. Not funny at all! The second part which made me very uncomfortable was "Ani's" comments about fighting Muslim countries! That was very rude in addition to depicting Azerbaijanis as rapists and bad people. The movie is great but this part is very wrong and racist against Azerbaijan and Turkey! Unacceptable at all!
