Movie Reviews of Hum Aapke Hain Koun..!
Movie Review: A true diamond in the rough!
Summary: 5 Stars
Hum Aapke Hain Koun is a 3½ hour movie that maybe should have been 4 hours long. Many of the scenes are energetic and move at a blistering pace just to get everything said and done, which is why some might think the acting is lacking. The actors just are not given time to properly work many of the scenes. Some of the transitions between scenes are so abrupt that we almost get whiplash. The camera work is very good and the image quality is adequate. The sound is sub-today-standard and almost poor on 1 or 2 of the songs, but they are great songs. Be prepared to speed read and watch scenes several times just to see everything. Based on movies that I have seen, at least 10 important later films were influenced by this film.
All that said, I highly recommend this absolutely adorable film for what it is, not what it isn't. It is a family film. There is great love between 2 brothers and 2 sisters. True love develops between the couple in the arranged marriage. There is intense electricity between Madhuri and Salmon as their love develops. There is the Indian version of a pooh-pooh cushion (crunchy chips under a blanket). There is a wonderful subplot where Madhuri and the young girls play the game steel-the-groom's-shoes during the wedding. A little white dog is a cute and important character. There is a ton of soul lifting laughter in this film as characters and guests laugh at the antics of the main characters. And, my all time favorite, you never really know for sure who or how many will eventually get married in one of these films.
The negative reviewers do make some points. If this film were remade with today's sound quality, choreography, film quality and directing it would be a tremendous film. However, it might lose something immeasurable in the process.
