Movie Reviews of My Faraway Bride
Movie Review: Romantic, wonderful, amazing
Summary: 5 Stars
I wanted to cover a scene shown towards the very start of the movie so this shouldn't spoil anything but if you don't want to know about it please do not read this paragraph. He says that when he first saw her it was like something out of a dream. I'm happy for him the way he meets her but also jealous. She gives him a little smile as he's gazing at her admiringly and that gives him a positive sign, and additionally she's holding a magazine and reading it while walking. The article she is reading is a flattering article about Alex himself! Now if I had beautiful women walking around reading articles about me I wouldn't have any trouble saying hello either. I guess it could happen if you just happen to have a lot of magazines writing articles with high praise about you (I think they call him a genius writer in the article) but it's not going to be the case for most people. But it still works after all he's a prominent writer I did want to point that it is not the normal situation. It is believable that Alex could travel to India as he's a writer and would have more flexibility in his job than most people. I also like how he never uses any physical violence in the film which is too often the case with a lot of movies. This type of film is very true to real life in a lot of ways in that he needs to work thing out with people.
I wish they had shown a lot more interaction between the leads of Alex and Reena because it it's so nice to see them together but they do show enough to make it worth while. Reena is hot and Alex rules as the man who know what he want when he sees it! Yes! Go Alex go! Alex is my hero! If they would have replaced the attention they put on the other couple and had shown more Alex and Reena it would have been better but it is still great as is. It's pure agony they didn't show more scenes between them because the ones they show are great! His subtle looks, smiles and head nods of admiration toward Reena are perfect and mesmorizing and the scenes with them together are electric! But at the same time Alex is level headed throughout everything showing love but ready to back off if she isn't reciprocating. The confrontations with Reena's mother is riveting and true to life. Fantastic. There are other great scenes that are hard to discuss without ruining the fun so check it out.
Summary of My Faraway Bride
MY BOLLYWOOD BRIDE: Alex, meets and romances Indian beauty Reena while she is vacationing in California. Torn by her blossoming feelings for Alex and her Indian family values and obligations, Reena returns home without saying goodbye. Alex, distraught by the turn of events, decides to follow her to Mumbai and win her back. The trouble is, Alex couldn't be more out of his element on the sub-continent, not helped by the fact Reena has kept something very important about her from him (she?s the Julia Roberts of India)! With the help of a rambunctious rickshaw driver and some of Reenas friends, Alex just might have a chance at winning her back.Similar DVD Movies
