Amar Akbar & Tony
Release date: (2017 June 20)
Availability: Global
Netflix Distributed Movie

Plot:
This British comedy stars Rez Kempton as a Sikh, Sam Vincenti as a Muslim, and Martin Delaney as an Irish Catholic. Set in contemporary London, the trio - who were childhood friends - face unforeseen changes to their lives, such as interracial marriage, near-fatal accidents, and prison, that test old friendships and family values. This is the first western film to feature a turbaned Sikh in the lead.

Review:
Rating: Watch it / It depends / [Skip it]
  • This throws a lot of story lines at you hoping one sticks. They don't. It starts as a buddy comedy before quickly devolving into Amar picking up the pieces of his life after being in jail. That plot is still punctuated by attempts at humor. Amar's story line could be good, but it's overshadowed by the pointless and trite arcs of his two friends.
