Excellent chemistry between the two thesps pays dividends.

Derek Elley, Variety
Fresh

A watchable, but conventional, romantic comedy about negotiating domestic peace agreements in the shadow of an unexpected pregnancy.

David Chute, L.A. Weekly
Rotten

Salaam Namaste must set some sort of record for genre pileup.
