3 Idiots

Simply an over-rated movie. Too much of hype, just not worth it. No denial to the fact, that its entertaining, but we have seen much more better from Raju Hirani as well as Aamir Khan. Festive season could be a favour Or else just a time pass flick.

Highlights:

 To begin with,you will be a lot reminded of apna Munnabhai in character Rancho(Aamir). The way he does help people in his own different ways. The director should grow out of Munnabhai now. Its only Sanjay Dutt who can suit this social worker role the best. Nobody can replace Sanjay Dutt, not even Aamir. He should understad that. As the movie begins, especially audiences who have graduated from Engg Colleges, could identify a lot. And hence, u expect a lot more of similar nostalgic scenes depicting the life of budding Engineers. But as the moves advances, what u can only see is Aamir Khan, as if the movie is made for him. Big Actors like Madhavan, Kareena and even Sharman cudnt do much, because Aamir dominated so much. Thats something i totally hated.

I was a bit late in checking out this flick this time :D So had quite lot of recommendations from friends to go and watch this flick for its balanced story. Good humour and emotions in the right places. I am sorry to say this, but i didnt really find this movie balanced at all. The humour which were created with those silly jokes which you would already have heard a lot of times over forwards and smses, can make u only smile at the max. you cant laugh at
the same jokes over and over again. And emotions were class apart. I have never seen any actor even in Karan Johar's movie cry as much as in this flick. Every alternate scene and the guys have the eyes readily filled with tears. Even the lightest of scenes are forcefully depicted as emotional.

They added as much as masala possible in the flick. So much of masala, that it no way makes any mark as a good movie. Engg College has been made a joke of. Where every other month u see guys attempting suicide. ok, i accept it happens, but not every other month. And the heights, they also show a lady delivering baby in the principal's office. And the delivery is done by our genius doc cum engg- Aamir Khan. If all these are not enough, guys please watch the scene post delivery, the significance of the famous phrase"All izz well". You just cant help but to bang your head over the sutpidity of the scene.

Okay, now comin to music, songs looked a bit forced with no meaningful context really. But isnt tat bad to the ears. I loved the get up of Madhavan as a student, but he cudnt stand much in front of our dominating charm Aamir, Sharman was almost neglected if he wudnt have committed suicide. I loved kareena as well, but alas she was wasted in the movie. Why does any big actor sign a movie sharing screen space with Aamir, is beyond my understanding.

The most shockin part is the rating it has got. A whopping 5 stars!!! :O Was the credit bought and sold, no idea. But it certainly doesnt deserve so much of accolades. This would be my first ever review, where i hardly write anythin good about a flick. Its mostly because, you would have already read all very good about this flick, and hardly any wrong except for the controvery relating to the stolen credit of the original writer of the book "Five Points Someone"- Chetan Bhagat.

I would just want you to find out for yourself, whether the movie really touches your heart as any series of Munnabhai or even Taare Zameen Par. Be it entertainment or emotions, it failed to touch my heart at least. Many of you might not agree with this particular review of mine. But wat the hell, am earning no good with my reviews. Its my opinion in the end.

My Rating: 3/5 (for the light entertaintment and feel good factor during festive season :) )
