Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi

[kinnell]

Anyone see it yet? What did you think?

I just came from seeing it and I thought it was pretty great and quite refreshing! I think it succeeded where KANK failed. (It had a moral, lol) SRK and Anushka Sharma were great. And the song "Phir Milenge Chalte Chalte" is ABSOLUTE genius. I did think the transformations (physically/personality) were too absurd, it did drag a bit and at times it felt like you were watching SRK, not the character he was playing. But overall, I definitely recommend the movie!

Anyone else see it?

Being forced to watch hindi movies at home...i happened to watch this lastnight...it was decent...shahrukh khan did his thing..it is worth seeing but don't expect anything out of the "hindi movie box"...it's got a nice sense of humor and a decent plot..i recommend it as well.

 

[NavDheri]

i watched it tonight...it was pretty good...liked the whole idea behind the movie n all. def worth watching.

 

[Ramani]

I watched it last night I lovedd the moviee it was pretty interesting

Watched this in theaters last week...pretty funny story actually...we were watching one scene where it was supposed to be one of those ominous nighttime rainy scenes...and then the fire alarm for the theaters went off...and I, being completely glued to the screen and somewhat oblivious (as usual), thought that the strobe lights from the fire alarm were an added lightning effect to the scene and I thought, "Wow! how'd they make the lightning seem so real?"......then we had to evacuate the theater lol...they eventually let us back in and gave us free tickets!

anyways...my review of Rab Ne:

-Anushka Sharma did her role justice, in my opinion...a better debut performance than deepika...i definitely see her making other films

- SRK= very disappointing...though his character was dynamic, i felt he could have done better...he played the quiet guy pretty well, but failed to play the character of "raj" well (what a coincidence that i remember THAT character's name, huh?)...At some times he was not trying hard enough, and at other times he was definitely overdoing it...What was really noticeable was that you could easily compare his rendering of the Surinder/Raj character with other characters in other movies, making his acting seem bland in my opinion...Also, he looked exceptionally old in this movie...

-Music: Decent...worth listening to, especially since it grows on you...And like Kinnell said, that Phir Milenge Chalte Chalte song was genius!! I thoroughly enjoyed watching the sequence to that song even though you could tell it was a little forced into the movie...too bad not many people will understand why the song is cool (not even the bolly fans i went with could figure it out...i had to point it out to them)...and P.S....the word "hep" actually means something in the "dance pe chance" song...it's not like sunidhi chauhan mispronounced "hip" (yeah, that's what i used to think).

-Overall: Enjoyable even though it did drag out a little too much at times. If you love SRK, go see it. It's definitely not a flop, for sure...but not a YRF masterpiece (I'd easily put Bachna and Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic ahead of this one...and idk about Dostana cuz I havent seen it yet)...




......yeah...i have way too much time on my hands right now if I can give a review of a bollywood movie this long...lol

My biggest problem with SRK was that 1) I felt like I was watching SRK on screen, not Suri or Raj, the characters he was playing. It seemed that to get the laughs that they wanted, they exaggerated the mannerisms which was unfortunate in my opinion.

And 2) the difference between Raj and Suri was too great. We should have seen the awkward Suri in Raj during more scenes and the more confident Raj later on in Suri. Suri was nervous around Tanni and Raj was pretty smooth. And we're not even getting into the point with the highlights in the hair because those do not take 5 minutes to add and remove.

3) There should have been some change in Suri overall. But even at the end, where Suri should have learned so much from being Raj, he still acted nervous around Tanni. That was lame. Suri should have at least learned somethings from being Raj like how to openly express his love and be more confident, even without compromising who he was. If there was a transformation in the character of Suri, the story would have been more believable.

The fact that there was random Kuldeep Mank and Amrinder Gill songs in the background made the movie A+ for me.

yaa i agree kinnel he never learned anythin from being raj it was really disappointing and his character def did get really annoying ....and also how do u not notice that ur talkin to the same 2 guys???? hello they look the same its called face shape, bone structure wowww that was a bit overplayed....and wheres the lesson learned in this????

but i gotta say it wasn't bad watchin it....the other movies out were really annoying and hard to sit through....oh and his oversized shirts and pants as suri were well played out on the character....and how come his mustache nvr came off?

 

[Laddi]

I wont go into too much details...but it was a strictly AIIGGHHTTT movie!!! I was dissapointed solely cuz last time this director and SRk worked together, they came out with the ever so classic Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge... I expected wayy more, and I hated the effing mustache on SRK--->YUCK!

haha agreed. pretty good movie. worth watching.
in the beginning of the movie, i'm pretty sure one of my favorite songs was playin, Nasha by Gippy Grewal

 

[Raji]

Im watching it this weekend...Im so excited!! I love love love LOVE SRK :-* :-*

 

[Raashi]

ok really... what was the costume designer thinking!? SRK's brightly-colored T-shirts looked like they were made for a 9-year-old girl. he could've looked 'cooler' with somethin else lol. :-X just had to put that out there.

If I was 60 and still had a bod like that, then I would wear yellow shirts that showed some major cleavage also. The whole mooch thing was kind of cool, I wonder if people do that for competition :

 

[abhigames]

they also played gaddi by jazzy b in the background at one point.

im a big SRK fan so im biased....but yeah great movie, entertaining, drawn out way too long. say what u will, but at least srk is tryin to do something different rather than his old roles. everyone knows he overracts a lot, but at least he's playing roles now where its okay to overrreact. didnt like the new girl so mch, shes not even hot...wtf.

music is awesome...good songs. all other movies out are prtty crap anyways...ghajini was alright too...

lollllll im glad someone liked what he was wearing haha

 

[Chidiya]

You know Parul I think he did learn from being Raj but then Taani fell in love with him for being himself not for being Raj.

I think the outfits suit SRK...yes all the bright ones too lol

GREAT MOVIE! I absolutely loved it..if you know me you know I'm not the mushy type but I fell in love w/ this movie. I felt sooo bad for him at various points in the movie. My fav part has to be when they're at the Golden Temple and shes praying to God to see her Rab and she opens up her eyes and there he is..SURINDER JI! lol
