3 Idiots Movie Reviews

Finally a masterpiece from Bollywood. Aamir Khan is the best thing to happen to Bollywood.

Awesome film man. Saw this with my family in a theatre. Worth every penny n worth every minute. Never seen such an amazing film from Bollywood. What is so great about the movie is that it moves you, it gives you hope. It is a simple film, yet it has an everlasting message. The last 30 mins were beautifully shot. Very good direction by Hirani. The star cast is good n Aamir khan steals the show. The editing is top notch. U don’t feel bore for even a sec. Awesome screenplay. It’s hands down the best film in the history of Bollywood.

“Aal izz well”.

Never would I have thought that a movie that looked this stupid on paper could have turned out so good. Just looking at the DVD cover would have been enough to turn this film back in but it shows up in IMDb’s Top #250 so I thought I’d give it a try. It didn’t start out that well for me but before long the movie’s magic began to take hold. Not that there’s anything daringly new about it’s message; it all has to do with believing in one’s self and doing what you really want to do with your life after one’s formal education is completed.

Aamir Khan is a potent anchor for the story of three college friends attending the Imperial College of Engineering, and Rancho’s ideas about success don’t revolve around getting the best grades but actually learning something. I could see somebody like a younger Matthew Perry performing the role if this was an American film. I wasn’t really expecting as much in the way of music from this story, but with the amount of song and dance you could almost call it a musical. The ‘Zoobi Doobi’ dance number was quite infectious and looked like a lot of fun.

Another thing that keeps you engaged is the non-linear story telling technique. But the thing is, you never really get confused when the time line changes from ten years ago to present day. With all the humorous situations presented, this could have easily fallen into slapstick, and it did get close at times, but then the story pulled back with a poignant message or a sobering decision one of the characters had to make. Story threads are tied up that one forgets along the way and that’s another cool element. I just thought it was a uniquely creative film with a neat twist at the end with the identity of Rancho. There’s even a romance thrown in for our principal player, and when it was over, I had the feeling that this is what “La La Land” could have been but never came close.

magical nerd

Farhan and Raju are eager to reunite with their college friend Rancho. They find Chatur instead who have worked hard to brag about his success since his challenge 10 years ago. They go off in search for Rancho but there’s a secret. In flashbacks, they are freshmen as mechanical engineering students. Rancho refuses to submit to hazing from upperclassmen and the dictatorial teaching methods of Dr. Viru Sahastrabuddhe. Rancho’s rebellious nature win over Farhan and Raju. He rails against Virus’ pressure after a student’s suicide. He falls for Virus’ daughter Pia.

I don’t think Rancho works completely. He’s too perfect like a mythical creature. He’s a magical nerd. The movie needs to build up this high pressure world a lot better before it can tear it down. I can guess at what this movie is striving for but I don’t see it as funny or compelling. There is also a great twist in the middle and one at the end which is easily foreseeable from a mile away. The middle twist should be a better exposition. There should be a better story and a better journey to find Rancho. Ultimately, I don’t think this speaks to me although it might be lost in translation.
