Ra.One (2011)

*** This review may contain spoilers *** I am absolutely amazed by the many, completely undeserved bad reviews. Especially the critics concerning the storyline, hm, sorry but, Ra. One was not meant to be a serious film, it's half action, half comedy, half sci-fi (I know 3 half's), script/story-wise not at all different from lots of celebrated Hollywood superhero, or action movies.As some other reviewers here, worded their views so much better than me, allow me to repeat their opinion, which is also my opinion: shoaib104: "Credit, in fact is due to all who worked on the visual aspects of the movie. All the characters were presented brilliantly well. The city backdrop, the flying cars, the collapsing buildings, etc were all done to perfection. From the technical standpoint, it's difficult to find flaws in the movie making. It is of a level that Indian audiences have only known to exist in movies from across the Atlantic. For this reason alone, the film deserves a special mention in the pages of Bollywood history." knightthatkills: "Respect Ra.One for what it is, a FUN, true to Bollywood Sci-fi movie. Bollywood is best known and celebrated for its masala movies and this is one of the best with the added ingredient of Sci-fi."

This is only a film that can be watched for fun and time pass. It has no logic really.Story is about a video game designer who happens to design a virtual game that results in the development of a virtual villain who wants to come to earth and take over.The concept is illogical but the film action sequences, dances and peppy numbers make for a good entertainer, especially on big screen. There is some degree of overacting. Shahrukh acts well but fails miserably in trying to act as a tamilian.Nothing more to say.

the movie is mixed to reaction.if you are looking for some old king khan film, with good story's do not go for Ra one . it lacks story the graphics and effects are outstanding and amazing,it takes us to Hollywood atmosphere.the train seen in this movie is outstanding as compared to robot.the acting of sharukh as the g.one is nice but other disappoints.the villain Arjuna ram pal is outstanding the direction is not bad also/the problem is that of its story line and copying of scenes from Hollywood movies.totally i can say that it is a good movie to watch especially for children.as compared to other Indian super hero movies like krrish,robot ,Ra-one is good.

I cant sleep well since i saw it! And not only because of the effects!Yes, first time i saw this movie i felt its too much and not enough at the same time. I was really confused about it! Too much information, too much ripped parts, my brain was really filled with it, although at the end i felt some emptiness.But after a while,(few months) i was convinced by i don't know what to watch it again. Second time i began to watch it with ambivalent feelings, i needed it on one hand, on other hand was scared to get bored by it...Its like a drug!!! It came to my mind and became part of me. Since this i take my time regularly to have fun with this movie. A very naive modern art-fiction-creation, with lot of spontaneous (nice!)jokes, good cuttings, marvelous pictures, connections to other stories, traditional customs and deep heart-wrenching contents full of love & pain from the real world!! Fantastic music and dance, Shahrukh-Kareena-Arjun-Armaan are really professional and beautiful in it! I feel like to be a kid again while watching it! All my superhero dreams "came true" again since Batman is dead (for me on the screen - Batman 3 was the last one witch was perfect)!If i would have to say hard critics about this movie: its too short! The scenes where G.One became part of a family (by reincarnation or not:)) were small. After all its a perfect movie yet!!! And i want more from it!!!I can absolutely understand people who don't like it at first sight! Takes time til you get attuned for it!!! Need a bit experience, flexibility and much sense how to accept all those things it want to say to you, and then you get your flow immediately!!!I read many reviews about it, and now I'm a little sad.Cant say its a movie for mass, but for an underground production is it very-very expensive. As far as i feel this is part of the inner child of ShahRukh Khan which had to shown-off already now. Either you appreciate this work of art, and maybe try to watch it trough SRKs eyes, so u can begin to evaluate it, or its not a movie for you, thats all.But wrong crap is it no way, just different... Clichés are ironical with great sense of humour. This movie caught 100% the mood of how a neo-superhero story should be made!Many thanks for all the guys who worked on it!!At least 1 big fan of it is ON!!!
