The Other End of the Line

If cross-cultural romantic comedies is your thing, this one is worth the watch. It follows form. High-strung New York ad man falls for a voice on the phone. He makes a date to meet the woman with the voice. Wires get crossed and they don't actually meet as planned, but they do meet. They fall together then fall apart and everyone lives happily ever after. Sort of.

Jesse Metcalfe does a pretty good job here. His Desperate Housewives fame got him the part but no doubt his performance here with get him more. He plays opposite the very lovely and funny Bollywood star Shriya. She is wonderful and I hope we see more of her.

This will not make anyone's Top 10 list but it is cute and funny enough to be a good date movie. The music is eclectic and fun to sing along with. The scenes of San Francisco, New York, and Mumbai are pretty good too.

Watch this movie with someone who thinks a weekend fling in San Francisco might be fun.
