Superb tale of a girl's struggle for her dreams.

More rooted in small-screen sitcom than anything deeper.

Nagra and Knightley have winning personalities, but credit should also go to writer/director Chadha for getting the balance right between humour and pathos, and sporting and romantic action.

The acting is as nimble as the footwork.

Every generation has to discover the same clichés that were drummed into previous generations, and kids could do worse than to learn them from this film.

Chadha does a decent job directing, while Parminder Nagra does a good job acting. The movie's main problem is that it's a little more fussy than it needs to be.

Delightfully upbeat, it will send you back out onto the street grinning from ear to ear.

A comedy with heart and substance.

Formulaico do início ao fim, não convence nem mesmo em suas seqüências envolvendo futebol %u2013 apesar da boa dinâmica entre Nagra e Knightley.

Fine character work by Juliet Stevenson, Archie Panjabi, and Bollywood regular Anupam Kher makes this well worth seeing.

As Spencer Tracy once said of Katharine Hepburn, there's not much meat there, but what's there is choice.
