Outsourced (2006)

This must have been the source material for the Hollywood hacks who created the TV show with the same name. The NBC show is like a bad karaoke version of a great pop song. They sucked everything out of it that made the film enjoyable.

Outsourced is a fun fish out of water story about a typical American guy flying to India to manage a call center. The culture clash gags work because he’s actually IN India, not just parading around a back lot in Burbank. The cast is made up of real people, as opposed to random ethnic actors pretending to be Indian. Avoid the dreadful show and rent the DVD.

Rating: B-
