Smart and charming. Read full review

ReelViewsJames Berardinelli
Sweet and light. It's a celebration of cultural diversity and an affirmation that, despite differences in race, religion, and societal norms, people are essentially the same. Read full review

Chicago Sun-TimesRoger Ebert
Outsourced is not a great movie, and maybe couldn't be this charming if it was. It is a film bursting with affection for its characters and for India. Read full review

TV Guide MagazineMaitland McDonagh
Outsourced is a sweet, good-natured surprise that takes the cliches out of an overworked genre and makes them seem almost fresh and entirely charming. Read full review

Simply too bright and pleasant to become a huge hit, but it's a confident little genre film with near-classic charm. Read full review

The New York TimesMatt Zoller Seitz
In its modest way, Outsourced may be unique: a charming culture-clash romance that could be taught in business schools.

Austin ChronicleJosh Rosenblatt
Its head may be in the sand, but Outsourced is a good-spirited idyll, an escape from reality, naive to a fault, and all but unconcerned with the troubles of the world but almost -- almost -- convincing in its innocence. Read full review

San Francisco ChronicleRuthe Stein
The ending is predictable to anybody who's followed the trajectory of outsourcing. Outsourced humanizes those affected by it - even if the story sounds familiar. Read full review

It is not giving away much to say that everything ends as expected, just not soon enough. Read full review
