- Sometimes good friends maybe too good to share...
Cocktail
Cocktail Rating: 56 out of 100 based on 8 reviews.
A romantic story about a hilarious and dramatic summer in the lives of three strangers in London who inadvertently become best friends and start living together. Everything seems to be perfect until love comes to town! It's a contemporary story about the interplay between friendship and romantic love and how in the truest sense one really can't exist without the other... so if one did HAVE to make a choice, what would you choose? Set against the vibrant and luscious backdrop of London and Cape Town, this is a comical, new-age and warm celebration of relationships exploring various choices that life may offer and the extraordinary choices that ordinary people make. -- (C) Eros

Cocktail is a cute chick flick with a pretty hero. More than the story it unfolds, the film lives up to its name because of the diverse influences that drive the story and its characters. It is written by Imtiaz Ali, and you spot dollops straight out...

No, it’s not a remake of the Tom Cruise blockbuster; the title refers to the ‘mix of emotions’ these characters experience. Set in London, we meet Indian female flatmates Veronica (Deepika Padukone) and Meera (Diana Penty). Soon Gautam (Saif Ali Khan)...

There’s this guy, he’s too cool, ya. Lives and works in London, chases girls, gets ‘em, beds ‘em, moves on. There’s this girl, she’s wild. Has this nice pad in a tony part of London, which she uses as a stop-over to change clothes in between all the...

It's not enough that he's sharing a flat with two gorgeous women, having casual sex with one, while the other does everything from his laundry to making him breakfast...he had to go and fall in love, and ruin what most men would describe as "living the...

Boy loves girl. Boy ends up falling in love with girl’s best friend. Best friend also loves boy. But best friend sacrifices boy for girl. You get the drift?

Few films have made me feel so nicely elated and then left me completely deflated in a span of just 146 minutes and a few seconds. But I should have known that; the producers and director of this film say so clearly in the title.
