Winderfuly film

A funny and heartwarming look at Muslim-American life. An eye-opener for anyone who is unfamiliar with this community. This film deserves wide distribution.

A Fabulous Look at American Life

This film was so cute and entertaining while still tackling current politcal problems. We need more films like this. It's not my culture and I'm so glad to have the opportunity to get a peek into other people's lives and cultures.

Too much of Hollywood has been about only white people for way too long. The world has more to offer and well-written and well-directed movies like this should become commonplace.

Great job to both the actors and production team. I highly recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys fun rom-coms. My spouse loved it too.

I can't wait to see what this director makes next.

Hilarious and so relatable

Americanish made me laugh out loud. It is so relatable. Having grown up in different countries and finally becoming my own person in the US, I related to both the sisters. I remember the exact day when I decided to remove my hijab. In my professional life, I've had to bite my tongue many times, so I fully relate to Sam. The mother daughter relationship was so well portrayed. As heavy as all these topics were, it was phenomenal that Americanish made me laugh so hard. Muslim women are not monolithic. We are multifaceted and Americanish did a great job portraying that.

Navigating the intricacies of identity and cultural expectations

This romcom follows the lives of three women navigating the different meanings and expectations of love as they try to stay true to their own identity. This is an upbeat film and while formulaic, one still looks forward to how things will play out for each in the end. I loved it!
