Just a few words to review this Oscar worthy film, well not really, but it is genuinely good laugh and a very warm-hearted film. Please ignore all the uninspiring reviews and Watch It! It actually comes from some of the best french producers Europe has given birth to. :-) I happen to have met him once in Harrods and the guy is Hot as hell. Not to say about his sharp intelligence and witty sense of humour.I could have given this movie more points if i could! And note am voting for the film not taking into consideration my great admiration for the producer. Though it is hard to be objective once meeting him. :-)

has a few minutes at the beginning which are worth a laugh, but other than that if you have absolutely nothing else to watch and this DVD was lying around , only then consider it. the plot is quite stupid and believe me i know about Asian cultures.the acting from all the cast is poor except Kal Penn...that guy's talent was wasted. seriously....the only redeeming feature for me was the stunning and voluptuous Lisa ray. looking at her made it bearable watchable it. (ps. i am not talking about her acting talents) it was a classic b ..no c or d (if there was such a category)movie, which is not even worth being shown on TV. straight on to DVD and then into oblivion. give it a miss people

Dear Audiences of America, As you sift through your video stores you may come across this film. "Ball and Chain: A Comedy about Hooking Up" it advertises on the DVD case. You see Kal Penn (the guy from Harold and Kumar) and some other Indian dude on the cover staring at a skirt and think, "Oh man, I love teen comedies+Kal Penn, "teh" r0xors!" You would be wrong. Despite the spine depicting a girl in a bikini, this movie is nothing that it says it is. It's about arranged marriages. It's a predictable romantic movie at that. Guy meets girl. Girl hates Guy. Parents try to get the to get married. They try to break it apart. They fall in love but now the weddings off and the girl's fathers looking for other husbands. How does it end? Well there is an elephant. But believe me it doesn't help.Seriously though, if you have an open mind this movie is so bad that it's entertaining. It was funny when it wasn't supposed to be funny. Just don't expect what it tells you to expect. Sneaky Marketers.

I thought this movie was hilarious... yeah it was stupid funny but i mean who doesn't like a good laugh every now and then. There were parts in the movie that dragged but i thought it was a great movie in case ur bored or genuinely want to see a good Indian/American comedy.People who are dissing this movie is because they have no sense of humor. Stop taking the culture so seriously, we all know we do some stupid things no matter where we're from. So stop hating and start appreciating that some film maker actually came and made a movie about you guyz.I would go out and rent it if i were u!...cuz then u wud be missing out on a night of pure fun.
