i really liked this, i feel like it had a great balance of humour and seriousness. the serious topics were well portrayed, surely a little cliché, but i didn’t really mind that.

this movie was really funny but also soo deep at some points
the vibe was really similar to the english skins and i really liked the different accents and the way you got to know different cultures
still very sad in moments

It was okay, only reason I watched it was because of film class

Rewatched this after years and its still hilarious. Sadder than I remember.

Started funny, got serious. Unique story.

7.6/10

Very funny!

As funny and iconic as it is, I find it hard to love this. A mix between misrepresentation and stereotypes that don't help a minority. I only say that because I felt no nice feeling watching this, only the few times I laughed at how harsh the comedy was. I understand the morals and messages, but it tries too hard to stick in so many 'traditional' values that it loses meaning. If it was done ethically right, I probably would have loved this because the soundtrack, acting, jokes, cinematography, and production were perfectly entertaining, unlike the story.

Funny and a little sad a bits but good film.
Would recommend.
