Movie Reviews of Mississippi Masala
Movie Review: Mississippi Masala
Summary: 4 Stars
An Indian family is expelled from Uganda when Idi Amin takes power. They move to Mississippi and time passes. The Indian daughter falls in love with a black man, and the respective families have to come to terms with it. This movie touches on the origins of the immigrant status of the South Asians which began when they were expelled from Uganda many years earlier. The resentment towards blacks is a recurring theme in the movie as they settle into their new communities in the deep south. This movie has a bouncy music score that adds flavor to the story and a nice cast weaves everything together in fine style. A good romance movie with great lead actors.
Movie Review: A Pleasure
Summary: 4 Stars
A light, warm film forgotten by many but treasured by those in the know. A young Denzel Washington makes a wonderful romantic lead in this culture-bending comedy-drama. His costar, Sarita Chowdhary, is a beautiful, sensitive actress who perfectly complements Washington. The theme of racism never overwhelms the love story at the heart of the movie.Movie Review: sweet, beautiful pictues of Africa
Summary: 4 Stars
sweet, fun with beautiful pictues of Africa. A good movie for teaching about racial relations.
But if I was a movie reviewer I would say two and a half stars.
It's a bit lightweight.
Movie Review: excellent customer service, mediocre movie

Summary: 1 Stars
Unfortunately, I was sent a standard American copy of the movie which, of course, doesn't function on a european system, despite my adress beeing in Switzerland. So I was kind of disapointed to have a)lost the money b)not been able to watch the movie. One is wrong to assume that every european household is having an american compatible DVD player.
