Another predictable Rom com

Technically a well made film and good acting too, but nothing new. The level headed slightly cranky guy who has an annoying effeminate best friend that always gives him advice and asks about him but is shown no interest in return meets the only other normal guy in the whole film and almost by the end they have an unexpected argument that puts in jeopardy their relationship... And don't want to give up the ending... But I think it's not hard to figure it out.New is that some main characters are gay Islamics but I think the film would have been much more interesting if they had explored that side more than the typical straight acting guy with queeny best friend meets straight acting guy part. Overall, a no brainer but well shot and acted.

Fun and sweet

It's refreshing to see a Muslim gay themed movie that not about oppression and corrupt Middle East persecution. It's a rom com so the story has just enough depth to be sweet, but not so much that it's weighed down with seriousness.And Herbie, your review sucks. It's easy to crack insults and critiques from the anonymity of the internet but listen up dear, the rest of us have never heard of you. We have heard of Haaz and he's a damned fine actor. And he's a significant improvement over the original actor in the short film who played the character as a bumbling dork.I have read several reviews on here and wonder why the vitriol? Anti Muslim or just lazy? It's lazy to paint 1 billion people with a broad brush because you over index on the radicals among them. Grow up.
