(Rated PG-13, 112 mins.) Who wants to cook AlooGobi when you can bend a ball like Beckham, the famous British Soccer star? Thus is the premise with it’s lovable, likable “My Big Fat Greek Wedding” tendencies, about a young girl, Jesminder (Parminder Nagra), an Orthodox Sikh who rebels against her parents customs to play an American sport behind their back. She engages the help of her new best friend Juliette (Keira Knightley) and her coach Joe (Jonathan Rhys-Meyers) to help her sneak to practice while white-lie disobeying her parents. If there is a mom out there looking for an all American lesson through an Indian family about values, love, laughter and believing in what is right, this is the movie must-see for all teenage daughters and their moms. And the one time in life she’ll thank you for a good time that you suggested, other than her idea of fun at a rap concert. A must see for the entire family that’s gaining national momentum!
