Storyline:

In the upper echelons of traditional Middle Eastern society, Reema and Omar prepare for the marriage of their daughter Tala. But back at work in London, Tala encounters Leyla, a young British Indian woman who is dating Tala's best friend Ali. Tala sees something unique in the artless, clumsy, sensitive Leyla who secretly works to become a writer. And Tala's forthright challenges to Leyla's beliefs begins a journey of self-awareness for Leyla. As the women fall in love, Tala's own sense of duty and cultural restraint cause her to pull away from Leyla and fly back to Jordan where the preparations for an ostentatious wedding are well under way. As family members descend and the wedding day approaches, the pressure mounts until Tala finally cracks and extricates herself. Back in London, Leyla is heartbroken but learns to break free of her own self-doubt and her mother's expectations, ditching Ali and being honest with her parents about her sexuality. When Ali and Leyla's feisty sister Zara help throw Tala and Leyla together again, Tala finds that her own preconceptions of what love can be is the final hurdle she must jump to win Leyla back. 

I Can't Think Straight User Reviews:

Only one thing which was right for this movie was its story. Except that, everything was crap. Terrible screenplay. It could have been much better in the same budget. Many scenes don't seem realistic to me, eg. Tala and Leyla first meeting scene, tennis court scene, and changing room scene after the tennis court one. Terrible acting, or I should say actors are not pushed enough making it to immature direction. They could have been asked to give a retake. Characters are not developed well. Viewer is not able to feel for the character. Music was crap. It was unable to present the emotion of the scenes. Background score is over dramatic. Editing is clumsy. Overall, it is better to skip it, not worth of your hour and a half.
