Very best movie i ever watch

Highly Overrated But Still Good

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

I have personally watched several movies that I haven't enjoyed, but this movie made its mark. This is by far the worst cinema Bollywood has ever delivered. Overacting is business as usual for Karan Johar movies. But I don't blame the director as people who like this movie are stupid.

This is easily of one the best movies i've seen... A gathering of some of the great actors in the industry!The story of a family... love, respect, separation, reunion... The first part... a bit of romance, happiness, lovely comedy moments...Good fun moments, Kajol's comedy is, for me, the cutest and what makes also the comedy of the movie great!The second part... succeeding a mission... two special moments: Brother's reunion and Mother-Son reunion, hard to contain myself from crying... These are the most touching moments of the movie.. simply outstanding with the emotions they bring at the rights moments... A light movie with lots of emotions flowing! You are able to engulf in this world, and live it! GREAT soudtrack, nice songs also!!! I believe this movie doesn't leave space to be questioned whether to watch or not to watch... it is definitely WATCH!

This movie sucks big-time. I saw this after it won several awards. the story line is nonsense - its completely unrealistic and unpalatable. Not only that none of the actors seem very believable - what a waste of good talent on an idiotic story - the same cast and money could have made 2 or 3 great movies - Its the Story Stupid - somehow Bollywood doesn't get it. These extravagant movies are just so fantastic that they seem to have no basis in reality - and the Bollywood film industry seems completely stupid to keep awarding such films year after year. Someday they may still learn. I even like songs and dances but in the context of a good story anything is OK - this movie was utterly nonsense - wish I could give it negative rating.

Read the other reviews, and you will get a sense of how beautiful this film is, how beautiful its actors, how delightful its dance sequences.However, at the end, the cold-blooded, willful, sexist, bullying father reconciles with his son by first *blaming* *him* for obeying him when he threw him out and then by *again* *blaming* *him*, this time for feeling hurt when his father hurt him. Only after this does he apologize.This scene occurs not long after another scene in which one of the father's indirect victims whimpers that her life is worthless without having a father or father-in-law to submit to. She has a loving husband, a loving child, a loving sister, a loving mother, but she ignores all that to consider her life worthless because she has no father-in-law *to* *submit* *to*.These scenes leave such a bad taste that most people will never be able to stomach watching the film a second time. The few who do watch it again will probably imitate a friend of mine, who watches it but always shuts off the DVD just before the final scenes and pretends they occur in a less morally distasteful fashion.Of course, I have one acquaintance (not a friend) who enjoys the film because he thinks it is a father's right to be cold-blooded, willful, sexist, and bullying, and he dislikes the ending because he doesn't think the father should have apologized at all. So some people may actually enjoy the ending, I guess.
