Marjorie Baumgarten
Jimmys desire to become an American P.I. like his favorite fictional heroes serves the character well, and I can easily picture more movies starring the character.Whatever you do, stick around through the end of the closing credits for an extra dollop of well aimed, irreverent humor. ( Read More )
Leah Pickett
In this broad satire, the title character (Maz Jobrani) wins a green card lottery and immigrates from Iran to Los Angeles with his overprotective mother to pursue his dream of becoming an American cop like Steve McQueen in the movie Bullitt. ( Read More )

Sherilyn Connelly
Jobrani is an affable presence who clearly has great love for the screen clowns of the past, and his script is clever and errs more on the side of laughs than shocks give or take a few too many gay jokes but Sheila Vand steals Jimmy Vestvood: Amerikan Hero as the vivacious Leila. ( Read More )
