One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

You already know the story, and I am 7 years late in watching this movie. The election of Barack Obama was historic, and here this movie has effectively used that event in the narrative. The most honest salesman in the world can repair almost anything and here he is sending out positive vibes throughout the film.Wonderfully realistic acting by Shah Rukh Khan, and great script, direction and music.

I don't post reviews on IMDb much but once in a while I come to see a movie which compels me to write one and let others know of this masterpiece.Such is the greatness of this movie My Name Is Khan. Preview:This movie is about a man named Rizvan who embarks on a journey all across United States of America just to prove his love and that he is not a terrorist. Direction:This movie is directed by Karan Johar who has given masterpieces like Kuch Kuch Hota Hai,Kabhie Khushi Kabhie Gham,Kal Ho Na Ho etc and yet this time nothing less was expected from him.He is very sincere to his work.He directs a movie and takes his time to move on to next movie but his work is nothing but pure class and hard work.He direction is very good in MNIK(My Name Is Khan).Set in America this movie shows his hard work.He has done a great job.He always knows what he wants from his actors and his writers.Acting:This whole movie is driven by non other than Shah Rukh Khan.Ifit wasn't for him maybe this movie wouldn't have gotten this mush praise and hype no matter how great direction was because the character of Rizvan is such a complicated character that nobody could pull this off.He put in a a lot of hard work preparing for this character.His acting is just unbelievably awesome and upto the level of Leonardo DiCaprio and Jack Nicholson. And then comes Kajol who is evergreen as always. She nails her character very much and gives her best.Story:Writers did a great job because writing something like this is very difficult job but they did really very well. Music :An other great aspect of this movie is its soundtrack and other songs which add even much soul into movie. Overall:At the end its a much watch for everyone cause something like this is out there and you are missing it.So go now grab a DVD and get yourself mesmerized by this masterpiece.

Duniya Mein Do Tarah Ke Insaan Hote Hai; Acche Insaan Jo Accha Kaam Karte Hai Aur Bure Insaan Jo Bure Kaam Karte Hai.How Simple Is This To Say And Even How Simple Is This To Understand But Its Next To Impossible To Implicit It Because We Have Certain More Classifications Vis Hindu-Muslim, Black-White And So On.My Name Is Khan Is Story Of A Khan Who Lives Happily And Contentedly With His Family Of His Wife And Son. Their Happiness Ends Due To The Darkest Divide Of Time i.e. Post 9/11. From Here Khan Starts His Journey To Meet The President Of USA. Why And How He Meets Him That Is The Rest Of Story.Before Anything Else This Movie Is Great Teacher. I Might Not Think Twice To Say It Best Movie Ever Made On Earth (Personal Opinion Differs). It Teaches A Beautiful Classification Of How Homo Sapiens Exists On Earth. It Shows How The Love Could Change Ones Hatred. It Shows Humanity Is The Best Religion And Actually The Only Religion On Earth. There Exists No Difference Between Human Emotions No Matter From Where They Come From And All This In Beautiful & Engaging Narration.Moving To The Movie.Story Of Film Revolves Around Rizwan Khan Whose Happy Life Gets Devastated On A November 27, 2007. His Journey To Meet President Make Rest Of Story. Its A Really Sweet And Full Of Emotions Which Is Woven Into Equally Sweet Screenplay By Shibani Bhatija.Cinematography Is Brilliant. Every Single Frame Is Beautifully Captured. Kudos To Red Chillies VFX Too For A World Class Work They Have Done.Captain Of Ship Karan Johar, Its His Best Work Till Date Without A Doubt.Music By Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy Is SRK's One Of The Best Album And Underrated Too. Sajda, Noor-E-Khuda, Tere Naina And Allah Hi Reham Are Gems. One Song Which Is Not Picturised In Film, i.e. Rang De (Its A Must Listen. On Top Of My Playlist From Last Few Days).Moving To Performances Kajol Is Treat To Watch. Shah Rukh Khan Rocks (Underperforms In Few Scenes Though) But He Is On Some Other Level In Many. Chemistry Of SRKajol Is Too Much Sweet. (And We See Mere Bits Of It In Latest Dilwale) Jimmy Sheirgill Do Good In Whatever Is Given To Him. In Short Everyone Plays Their Part Quite Brilliantly.Overall Its A Must Watch Film From My Side And Not To Miss Bollywood Film. You Will Be In Tears If You Are Weak Hearted But Being In Tears Watching A Film Explains How The Film Wins.Rating : ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Written with good intent but directed for friendship.Had the film ended when KHAN comes out of jail and sees his wife and instead of her going away had they just met there and had walked away together, it would have surely become worth a go. But, to escalate the point that Shahrukh is a HERO (damn larger than life) the last 45 minutes was screwed up and the entire film was ripped apart.There are very few moments that seem original and most others seem preachy and over the board. There is good acting, good music but the story is too bad in the end. The sad part is it's all messed up and there is no free flow. It seems overtly fabricated.I hate K Jo as a film maker now, I will not go to Theater again to watch a movie that he makes.It's1/5.
