It didn't start out that well for me but before long the movie's magic began to take hold. 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.
3 IDIOTS FILM ROLING MOVIE
Never would I have thought that a movie that looked this stupid on paper could have turned out so good. Ultimately, I don't think this speaks to me although it might be lost in translation. There should be a better story and a better journey to find Rancho. The middle twist should be a better exposition. There is also a great twist in the middle and one at the end which is easily foreseeable from a mile away. I can guess at what this movie is striving for but I don't see it as funny or compelling. The movie needs to build up this high pressure world a lot better before it can tear it down. He's too perfect like a mythical creature. He rails against Virus' pressure after a student's suicide.
Rancho's rebellious nature win over Farhan and Raju. Rancho refuses to submit to hazing from upperclassmen and the dictatorial teaching methods of Dr. In flashbacks, they are freshmen as mechanical engineering students. They go off in search for Rancho but there's a secret. They find Chatur instead who have worked hard to brag about his success since his challenge 10 years ago. See this film.įarhan and Raju are eager to reunite with their college friend Rancho. Wonderful and well worth your time-with a delightful script, wonderful characters and lots of moments that made me smile.and a few that brought me to tears. But I don't want to spoil a single wonderful moment, so my advice is just sit back and watch-and if you give it a chance, I can almost guarantee you'll have a great time with this poignant and funny film. As for the plot, it's very long and involved and I could recount what occurs. And, as my daughter pointed out when she saw the film, she loved that the men in the movie are not afraid to cry-something you rarely see in western films. Much of it is a comedy, but it also has many poignant moments (keep the Kleenex nearby), some existential moments where they explore the meaning of life and work and it's also a tender film about friendship.
One thing you should know, however, is that defining the type of film it is isn't really easy.
And, like most films of the genre, it has its share of the usual singing and dancing so foreign to films from other countries. When a movie is bad or just okay, this can seem like forever, but since "3 Idiots" is a very, very good film I loved its length. Like so many Indian films, this is a very, very long film-with a run-time of almost three hours. This may be among the very best India has to offer or it just seems that way to me. So, consider this when you read this review. Because of this, I have a hard time knowing how good this film is relative to other films from this country. Most of the ones I've seen were wonderfully entertaining but I am far from an expert on Bollywood. It's hard for me to review this film, as I have not seen a huge number of Indian films-probably no more than a couple dozen.
