Omid Djalili stars as Muslim who finds out that he was actually born Jewish. This creates an identity crisis that under normal circumstances would have been bad enough, but is compounded by the arrival of a radical cleric who is set to join his family.
Amusing comedy that I saw as part of the Tribeca Film Festival on demand service. This is a rather low key film with most of the jokes coming not from set ups and punchlines, rather from the interaction of the characters. This is not the raucous comedy of some of the recent big budget films, rather it's something smaller.
I like the film. It made me laugh and chuckle and it distracted me for a couple of hours. However as you can tell from my lack of raging enthusiasm in either a good or bad direction is didn't make a huge impression on me. Frankly I saw this film a week ago and I've been putting off writing up the film while I went to screenings at Tribeca (I have written up the 15 other films I saw, but this one flagged behind) It is worth seeing, it will amuse you, and I do look forward to seeing it again myself, however I'd wait for TV where its low key comedy will play better.
