Friends in Law (2018) User Reviews

Average escapist film

[bsw03 · 7/10 · 15 May 2021]

The acting is not very good sometimes and forced but this is meant to be a feel good film about learning to accept oneself and others around you. And sometimes you must stretch yourself out of your comfort zone to find yourself.

It is a very saccharine film.

Some closed captioning might be needed.

Comical, Enlightening, Demoralizing

[rogerjghannam · 8/10 · 18 January 2021]

This movie deals with cultural stigma. Composition is fragmented. Mother feels more relaxed in a gay environment up to a point when she is totally humiliated by a key character's low moral compass. His recklessness and infidelity shows the mother great disrespect. East meets West; there will always be conflicts of interest and disappointment. Beliefs can not be imposed, expectations can't be raised. Acceptance is to remain neutral. Disrespect, disloyalty cross the line.

Beautifully real film!

A storyline that perhaps hits home with many people. The actors and actresses were so vibrant and real, that at one point I had to pause and leave the room, because I was feeling the things they were feeling. A gorgeous cast, but as a gay man I feel it is my duty to state that Shreedevi Chowdary has the presence on screen like a Lauren Bacall or either of the Hepburns. I can't say enough that this film has made my day.

Awful acting

Low budget with acting so bad, not at all comedy. Its in my top 10 of worse movies I've watched. Watch something
