Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Superb! Hilarious! Entertaining! Comment: East Is East is nothing less than a masterpiece! This film is appealing to so many people for so many different reasons. I am someone who is not that keen on modern films - not least because of their violence, crudity and constant flow of unnecessary bad language; however, despite what can only be described as this film's appallingly frequent and 'filthy' dialogue, it incredibly does not detract from what is otherwise a very sensitive and altogether 'human' story, and indeed contributes to much of the comedy and humour of the movie throughout. Anyone like myself who is old enough to have lived through 1971 will appreciate the sheer mastery at which the cast were able to recreate that particular era to utter perfection. Unlike so many movies - including great ones, there is no 'pause' within this film where you are bored - not even for a minute whilst awaiting the next entertaining moment; each scene is superb! I've already watched this title six times to date, and will no doubt view it many, many more times to come, and still enjoy it. Highly recommended to all - even to those who do not normally care for bad language, and the odd bit of domestic violence. Enjoy! Customer Rating: Summary: Possibly one of the best films ever. Comment: This is one of the very first films i remember watching and can remember most of the film. It's an hilariouse film, It doesn't matter how many times you have seen it it's still a laugh. It gives a look into a family divided by two cultures and how they deal with everyday life, with their religion, jobs and social lives. Classic and a must for any Dvd Collection. Customer Rating: Summary: ***** ONE OF THE ALL TIME GREAT **** Comment: Beautiful film with insight to day to day lives of British Muslim Family. This film through its humour shows lives of an British Muslims who are torn between modern values and their religion. In many ways it is more realistic than anything you ever seen before. Buy it....., enjoy it...., laugh at it....its real...its hypocritical....its true....and funny. As well deserved 5 starts. Customer Rating: Summary: FANTASTIC - FANTASTIC - FANTASTIC - FANTASTIC Comment: WOW!!!!!! FANTASTIC FILM!!!!! What a great film, excellent acting and well scripted. A must buy for your library. Hours of laughter into the insight story of an ordinary family torn between British way of life and eastern religion. Despite being a comedy there is so much truth in this film. My old copy got corrupted and so I bought new one without any hesitation. A very well watched film by my friends and family. YOU MUST BUY THIS FILM. SEE IT TO BELIEVE THE TRUTH!!!!!! Customer Rating: Summary: Warning - Warning - Warning Comment:** Woooaaahhhhhh, be careful of this little nasty. A bad DVD in a new style sleeve and it seems they are trying to fool us. Well not me. This is noted for being funny. Well, wrong, this is far from funny and quite uncomfortable to watch in some areas. Along with this I would also state that this film is possible the most boring film I have ever seen. I owned this film myself a while ago and gave mine away because it was just rubbish and I felt that it had no value. Totally rubbish, totally pointless and a total waste of my own time which I would have rather spend staring at a wall. Lets just hope this will be the last reprint DVD that we see of this poor film.
