5.0 out of 5 stars A fun ride with leading ladies you'll fall in love with, February 5, 2010

By	M.T. (Bay Area, CA) - See all my reviews

I originally bought this movie as a package deal with "The World Unseen" as both these movies have the same writer/director/leading ladies and were made about a year apart. They ended up being released the same time, I think, due to some financial issues that occurred that stopped the release of one for awhile. And this is how I recommend you watch them as well-- together.

Maybe they are not "great" pieces of writing and film making in the eye of most pompous critics and grumpy, over judgmental lesbos who eat their own... but in the world of LGBT movies... I think this one is right up there with the best. And what's great is all relative anyway. In my personal opinion... I just loved these movies-- the leading ladies, and all the love and passion that went into making these films on such a limited budget(the lesbian writer/director Shamim Sarif is an amazing talent that you should read up on). Plus they found me during a lonely vacation and kept me smiling... and I really appreciate a story that has that effect and timing in my life.

And don't even get me started on Lisa Ray and Sheetal Sheth. Gorgeous, gorgeous beauties who really bring the film to life with great acting and amazing chemistry. You will totally fall in love with them! What is especially great about watching these two films together is that the roles of the leading ladies flip... Lisa Ray is the rebellious, outgoing one in "I Can't Think Straight"... and then a much more passive, shy housewife in "The World Unseen." Same with Sheetal... she's the nice girl-next-door in "I Can't Think Straight" and then is the Indian variety Idgie Threadgood outgoing dyke in "The World Unseen."

It's just plain sexy watching these women get switchy with each other... so whatever drama caused the delay in the first movie to be released was for good reason in the end. These movies belong together as much as the leading ladies do... "I Can't Think Straight" is mostly comedy and "The World Unseen" is mostly drama... they have different moods and each have their own special charm.

I haven't enjoyed a lesbian movie this much since Fingersmith and Tipping the Velvet. I highly recommed it.

By	L. Hawich - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a very funny movie with a serious topic. You will actually learn something about the culture of the Middle East. I loved the accents :) The actors make this film very special; their chemistry is beautiful. You simply have to watch this movie!

This review is from: I Can't Think Straight (DVD)

If you ever wanted a movie that makes you laugh and think about how certain issues are thought about in a different culture, than this is your movie. The funny part is that the movie transcends culture basis and really makes you look at family dynamics all around with humor and patience. A love story with ups and downs but a happy ending of being true to yourself and your loved ones.
