Its so bad, its good....
2 January 2015
9 stars for this piece of sh*t? really? This is funny only because it's downright ridiculous. We we watch laugh loud at videos where people slip and fall at banana skins, fart loudly in meetings, kick someone between the legs: this does not mean these are to be considered cult classics. Some of the songs are good, but you could easily hear them on your music player or over the youtube. Performance wise, Aamir proves that he can act really bad and weird at times, Salman is not and never was a good actor. However, acting was never a requirement for this movie. They have excelled in the other department ( screen presence). Going with 3 stars because some scenes are funny because, they are so weird.

An amazing journey
30 December 2014
Warning: Spoilers
Wow.... what did I just see? To me it was an experience of two beautiful movies at the same viewing: One, a period war drama, a tragic story of a little girl, her struggle, her love, her sacrifice and the heartbreaking ending, and another a feel good fairy tale story of a lost princess who finds her way back in the end. I have never had loved a fantasy movie so much;The story, the script, the backdrop, the music, everything about the movie was amazing.

All the major cast gave spellbinding performances, though special mention must be given to Ivana Baquero who played the girl Ofelia, Sergi Lopez, who played captain Vidal, the monstrous army honcho, and Ofelia's stepfather and Maribel Verdu, who played the caretaker Mercedes. Direction by Guillermo del Toro was first rate too. All in all, a superb movie and an exhilarating experience. Full 10 out of 10.
