This is one of the best india's films i have ever seenMovie Review: This was my first "Bollywood" film and I was impressed
Summary: 4 Stars
Before viewing this movie, I had never been privy to a "Bollywood" film. I'm your typical "whiteboy" so this genre of film was quite new to me. The first things to take into account (for "whiteboys" like myself) are the length of the movie, bollywood films tend to run longer than american films (no worries though, there's an "intermission"), the other attribute is that this film as with most bollywood films I've learned, incorporate song into the film. Hence, they have more of a "show" feeling to them. It's kind of corny at times, because the actors don't actually do the singing. When the scene suddenly goes into song and the vocal voice is significantly different than the actor/actress's voice it's quite noticable, but that's how things are done and you just have to get used to it.
Overall, Veer Zaara was actually a quite wonderful film, the story is solid and heartfelt, the cinematography is wonderfully done, the acting is superb, and the songs are quite beautiful and catchy (I now have the soundtrack, and listen to it often). This for me, was a wonderful introduction into the genre, and I will seek out more similar movies to view, due to this particular film.
The hardest thing for me was getting past the cheese of the actors during the musical numbers. This is the american in me speaking when I say that I'd probably prefer the songs in the background during scenes, rather than the actors lip-synching to them, but I can definitely get used to that.
I guess in closing, if you are a die-hard fan of Bollywood, or a novice like me, you will enjoy this film. it's a great story, with wonderful actors, spectacular sets/locations, and the music sets the mood perfectly for each scene. I own it now, and that should at least be motive enough to see it when you have the chance.
Movie Review: A surprisingly good movie!
Summary: 4 Stars
I sat down to watch this film with rather low expectations. I mean, sure, it was backed up by heavy star power, like the unfailing Shahrukh Khan, and the excellent Amitabh Bachan, but I didn't expect the film itself to be good. However, this was a beautiful masterpiece, and I must say Yash Chopra has pulled off another splendid film! My only two complaints were that the film tended to drag at some parts, and there was one song (but only one) that bored me a little. Overall, it is a nice film, and should be watched if you have the patience and time. The plot was good, and the romance was not overdone (like in many Hindi films). The main theme song is also rather catchy, and you'll find yourself humming it after you've watched the movie. There is no violence in this film, and it's good for the whole family (I mean that)!
