A lightweight and sentimental exercise that succeeds at little except maybe inspiring the viewer to go out and find a decent curry.

This movie's heart is in the right place, which is one way of saying it's terrible.

A cloying blend of Bollywood sentiment and Amlie whimsy, Nina's Heavenly Delights is a lesbian-foodie fairy tale that keeps its appetites well under control.

It's ironic how a film whose outcome depends on the difference between technical perfection and perceived, artistic greatness, would itself prove a slave to shallow screenplay mechanics deprived of nuance.

Parmar scores pleasant performances across the board...Yet the story is bland, like it's been over-workshopped in a screenwriting class, too polite and too smooth around the edges.
