"What's the movie about"

"Indian people"

That itself shows how shallow she is

[plasticrev24]

Jill is awesome! Stop complaining Cenk about not being able to get a word in - it was Jill's film review!

BTW - Kumar dude needs to get over it and stop being a little b*tch and come on TYT to tell us about his new job in the Obama administration.

the guy playing the dad- IRFAAN KHAN is a brilliant actor in India... Both in the movies and theater as well...

[cmjproductions1986]

LOL she did not understand this movie in DEPTH

[gastfreund76]

@hoffmanj Absolutely, I saw Ana's mentioning that too. Funny how the Youtube viewers apparently didn't get it AT ALL.

[hoffmanj]

Jill does a great Dave Koller impression at the beginning. (Ana mentioned this Bitter Movie Critic episode in a postgame last week.)

[mpsingact]

I love how Jill got under Cenk's skin.

You have to understand that the movie is all about the conflict in a american kid born to emigrant parents, torn between cultures and traditions..... YoungTurks, you gotta have a bttr reviewer than her, she's a drama queen alright, but tht's about all she is.

[arupgowda]

@ 2:07 > you don't have to be so dramatic bitch....... obviously you don't know squat about acting.

[trueguy69]

This is bullshit...

[indusvalleytrooper]

Sorry but these guys are utterly ridiculous. I know plenty of white people who thought this film was beautiful.

[ARayaOfSunshine]

I don't think that people can actually find deeper connection with this movie if they can't relate to it using familial origins.
