3 Idiots (2009)

9/10 [highly recommended]

I started this film with absolutely no expectations, and walked out with a smile. 3 Idiots is a sheer brilliant, heartfelt, laugh-out-loud  hilarious, and, most importantly, uplifting.


It's 4am, and I just finished; though I should really sleep, I also really need to get this review out. This bollywood film is absolutely an experience you must partake.

There are a few tiers that makes a film excellent.
A) Great characters; meaning all characters from protagonist to all the supporting members, are well rounded and support each other.
B) excellently intertwined storyline that uses multiple points of view, keeps you guessing and full of twists.
C) a well mixture of emotions (be it joy, fear, tears, anger, disappoint, love, hate, sorrow, confusion, thrill...)
D) Underlining message that will be left with the audience. Since the audience has invested their time, money, patience and effort. A sense of accomplishment after the film ends, something that the viewer can learn, experience, think about, use in their lives. Not just be left with regret that they started watching the film or just a mere memory of having watched a film.
E) Good cinematography, editing, direction, art work that can fully put together the screen play. Some times a film could be such an amazing idea, but fails to be put together nicely.

I can say 3 Idiots has succeeded all these tiers. It just rose onto my list of top favourite films. This is what true friendship is about...

Don't say you didn't watch this film because you couldn't find it! For your viewing pleasure, here's the entire film on the Tube:
