Absolutely Fantastic
Ella-May O'Brien
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

It is one of movies that poignantly depicts an era. It is plainly descriptive with many silly but candid admission of our time. A historical piece which can be used by future cinema researchers. I watched this when I was in early 20s. I thought it was a kind of silly porn because of the wrong summary of the movie. I think it failed badly in making money because marketers did not understand the value of the movie. Don't be fooled by the cover summary. I was surprised by the story then. I went to the UK to study and found out that the movie has some historical value. I am now in my 40s and I find it a very good movie. I think its average point should be around 8.2.The music is great and comes in right times.

Or: how to succeed in business without really trying.This modest comedy makes it look easy, showing an overeager, undersexed immigrant, newly arrived in London from his native Calcutta, impersonating a physician at a roadside accident and then carrying the charade to enormous success after setting up an exclusive Harley Street practice, despite having an only rudimentary knowledge of medicine. It proved to be the feature swan song for director Ronald Neame, a fixture in British Cinema since he first worked alongside Alred Hitchcock way back in 1929The film, like its protagonist, is amiable and ingratiating: a long, lazy social comedy that never overextends its satirical reach.

"Foreign Body" is a cute Brit flick which tells of a lowly, humble, and naive Calcutta flop-house clerk who manages to make his way to the UK where, with the help of a distant relative, he manages to stumble and bumble his way into a position as a physician to the rich. A fun little "East Meets West" flick with a pleasing performance by Banerjee, a bit part by Trevor Howard, and plenty of nonsense, silliness, and corn, "FB" will be an enjoyable tier-two watch for many.

This movie is hilarious and heart-warming. It is a great thing to turn the channel on the cable box which has all too many worthless t.v.-movies on it and come across a movie that is so cute that you can't stop watching it. This great movie is something rare. A movie with a cute story that doesn't take too much thinking to love it.
