Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Don't knock it till you've tried it...
I am partial to the odd romcom (yes, I really should know better, but I like stuff that's easy to watch most of the time) and Suzie Gold is no exception. Summer Phoenix, who looks stunning in this film, takes the title role as a member of a Jewish family, where her sister has just been married off to the stereotypical nice, "safe" as Suzie puts it, Jewish boy her larger than life parents expected. The pressure's mounting on Suzie to follow suit, as you can imagine.

She then falls for ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This is a Super Film
I remember years ago watching Four Weddings and Funeral, and thinking, is that it? I couldn't understand what the fuss was about. Then I took out Suzie Gold, expecting it to be quite poor from the reviews.

I really liked it. Summer Phoenix is beautiful and beguiling. The Jewish characters are a bit over the top, but the conflict between marrying in and marrying out is well done.

The lead man is a bit of a drip, but the development of their romance is quite charming. I liked ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Entertaining but hardly life changing
OK, so the press have torn into this film because My Big Fat Greek wedding got the ethnic stereotyping in first and Bridget Jones was a more likeable heroine.

Summer Phoenix holds it together despite being neither English or Jewish. She ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - i laughed, i cried
I watched this movie and had a great time - it's that simple. It's easy to miss films like Suzie Gold because critics pick them apart, but this movie a definite must-see. Suzie Gold is about a Jewish family but the themes are universal. There are some great lines in there too. It's the perfect date movie and Summer Phoenix does a flawless North London accent. It's really well directed too.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - My Quite Thin Jewish Wedding
Now if they dumped the name "Suzie Gold" and had opted for My Quite Slim Jewish Wedding and we were 6 months before "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" was even conceived...you'd be interested wouldn't you? Let's face it, we all watched My Big Fat because it sounded intriguing. "Suzie Gold" doesn't really do it as a title and it would be oh so easy to simply ignore this release and move on. Well don't. Don't even think about it! If you enjoyed My Big Fat Greek Wedding (or like me you hoped to enjoy it based ... Read More
