An earnest, frequently funny comedy. Boasts a brand of chutzpah that highlights 'the anything possible' side of America with energy to burn. Shiva Rose (Layla) excels" - Lisa Nesselson, Variety. + "Love, Sex, Belly Dancing and Religious Differences: The star-crossed romance David & Layla is layered with sharply observed cultural details. The movie works thanks to the charm of its leads and the writer and director Jay Jonroy's observations about Jewish and Muslim family life." - Matt Zoller Seitz, The New York Times. + "Cross Cultural Romance with a Positive Message." - Michael Ordoña, Los Angeles Times. + "Take the star-crossed romance of Romeo & Juliet, add some graphic sexual humor a la The 40-Year-Old Virgin and toss into the crucible of Middle East politics, and you get David & Layla, a frothy romantic comedy. David & Layla is suffused with the warmth and passion of the filmmaker Jay Jonroy." - Ann Hornaday, The Washington Post. + "It's hard not to be infected by the good humor and sheer joie de vivre of 'David & Layla'." - Ella Taylor, LA Weekly.

Boyish, reedy Moscow is fresh, immensely likable and amusing, while Rose boasts classic beauty, stoic dignity and an ability to pull off her character's rare but striking angry outbursts." - Sid Smith, Chicago Tribune. • "My big, fat, Jewish-Muslim wedding. Writer/Director Jay Jonroy has done a fine job-Tom Tugend, The Jerusalem Post. • "Let's call for a ceasefire in the hostilities in the Middle East, require all combatants to take a 106-minute break and watch this movie. My hearty, must-see endorsement." - Keith D Cohen, Jewish Chronicle. • "Could have been another My Big Fat Greek Wedding but its originality and insight set it apart.
