User Reviews

A really nice movie with a hint of comedy and sarcasm

To be honest I was a little skeptical about this movie. Whether it would be a good watch or not. It was a really nice movie with moments where you would have a good laugh. The story-line is really typical and you can sort of predict the ending. But overall it is a good watch and gives a good moral at the end.

A good watch for the weekend.
