Leave your thoughts about Finding Fatimah.
| Total FilmTim ColemanThere's real chemistry between the leads, and Arshad's script evokes the Brit-pic charms of vintage Richard Curtis. But despite strong messages of tolerance and some great gags, a small-screen feel prevails. |
| Flick FilosopherMaryAnn JohansonThere's lots to like in this mostly sweet British Muslim rom-com. Pity, then, that it tries too hard, instead of trusting its characters, and sabotages itself. |
| Times (UK)Kate MuirThere are some funny scenes, including a blind date in a café with the brother of a veiled woman who is not allowed to speak for herself, but the comedy often falls flat in a simplistic script. |
| Radio TimesTrevor JohnstonWhile refreshing to see the British Muslim community represented in everyday life, ultimately a comedic love story with low-wattage romance and few chuckles has limited appeal. |
| The ListKatherine McLaughlinFinding Fatimah might discourage judging people based on their flaws and life choices, but that only makes the decision to populate it with unpleasantly exaggerated characters rankle all the more. |
| GuardianPeter BradshawThe cast are lumbered with a bafflingly lame and leaden script and plodding direction that wouldn't pass muster for TV in a thousand years. |
| User ReviewTim%20 DThis is a standard rom-com but from a community that doesn't often get to be heard. It has plenty to recommend it and is light, well acted and pleasant. It could have focused more tightly on the central characters and would then have been excellent in its genre but its still a nice watch. |
| User ReviewJason%20 JAbsolutely amazing film by British Muslim TV. Realistic and relatable. Whirl wind of emotion. Funny all the way through 100% recommend! |
| User ReviewRob AReally good fun - a lighthearted story with a proper British style and humour throughout ?? |
| User ReviewHaaris QThe film falls with clunky, unrealistic dialogue which doesn't flow, flat characters with no development and flesh, and a weird use of sound mixing that just lets down the production value of the film. Only saving grace is the chemistry of the two lead actors who we don't see together enough as the film decides to focus on one-dimensional supporting and minor characters. |
