Review of PK 2014 Full Movie: Director Mr. Raj Kumar Hirani has different sensibilities, which he proved again. His style of the depiction of a serious subject on a light note with humor toppings is again delicious. I love, respect and support this subject so there would be changes of being little positively biased. This is a very good extension of one of my favorite flick "Oh My God". That one was of the single plot but PK is multi plotted. The story is just to support and explore the basic idea of a film but it's interesting. Screenplay by Director himself and Abhijit Joshi is fresh, logical and different even being very close to "Oh My God". Dialogues by director and writer duo are perfect and logical. In a scene, where Amir Khan is emotionally broken then blast in the background enhances the intensity and carry forward the story ahead very smoothly.
The use of an old song in a very light note or serious note is also interesting especially "Pardesi Pardesi Jana Nahi" in the beginning and "Aasman Mein Hai Khuda Aur Zameen par Hum" in between the film, is a good tribute and use of songs. Now, this type of film must have been made to rebel against the business of fear. We should change our lifestyle by not being God-fearing but become God loving. Hope such type of films will make changes even a little. Love is a sidetrack but it's very good and emotional with a message too. I personally feel that after a long gap this movie has repeat value. Performance wise Hats off to Amir Khan. He is absolutely perfect and the first time I witnessed him, doing fantastic in emotional scenes too.
He needs extra praising for always choosing something different subject with a message too. Anushka Sharma is fantastic. Her look is different and expressions are very real. Sanjay Dutt is endearing. Shaurav Shukla and Parikshat Sahni are very good. Sushant Singh Rajput is fine. Boman Irani is impressive. Music is melodious, lyrics are perfect. Both gel with the mood and subject of the film very well. I don't know whether most of the people actually knew the plot, but surprisingly I did, somehow some brilliant guy about a year ago already guessed or leaked the plot of the movie and I SERIOUSLY THINK it must be some spot boy jerk. But anyway, despite knowing the plot I still went to see the movie, that too First-day first show.
The moment I saw the plot becoming real within the first 10 minutes, I was skeptical whether I will like this movie. But to my surprise, Aamir Khan blew me away with his incomparable acting skills and cuteness of the character. He will make you feel as if you are looking at a child who has been introduced in the world for the first time but has consciousness. The main subject of the movie or so to say the "Strong Message", has been adopted by many movies before but PK stands far out from any of them. This movie will make you laugh but also make you cry. My year definitely ended with such a present from Rajkumar Hirani.2 things: Aamir Khan, Rajkumar Hirani. Actually, one needs nothing more than this to go and watch the movie. Two of the finest people in their craft when join hands, you can expect nothing short of a BLOCKBUSTER, in every sense of the word.
Saw this movie first day, first show and might I add the occupancy of the theater was about 60% for a 10:00 am a show. That speaks for itself about the enthusiasm that people had about the movie. The year 2014 has surely ended with a SMASH HIT. I was disappointed with Aamir after Dhoom 3 and I guess I am not alone but this movie makes up for everything, every darn thing. It is not Aamir's best performance but would surely count as one of his best. What makes it so bloody brilliant is the story which takes some pretty serious subject matters and portrays them to the audience in a way that the audience can only laugh, and when in the serious scenes, they do not laugh, what they do is reflect over what happened and THINK and the obvious BRILLIANT direction by Rajkumar Hirani. This movie makes you THINK. PK caters to both the types of audiences, one who just want uninhibited CRAZINESS and just want to ENJOY their time while they watch a movie, and the other, who want the movie to make sense and make you think, they want to learn something from it.
THIS MOVIE CATERS TO BOTH!! Sushant Singh Rajput was used adequately in the movie, some might feel his role was small but I don't think so. Sanjay Dutt does justice to his role too. Boman Irani had a small role, smaller than that of Sanjay Dutt's. Anushka Sharma was pretty okay. Nothing great or spectacular. Oh and, watch out for that SURPRISE at the end of the movie!! PLEASE GO AND WATCH, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!! Rajkumar Hirani proved his mettle with the Munnabhai series & the astounding 3 Idiots, and with 'P.K', his latest outing, the supremely talented filmmaker proves that he's indeed a Genius! A film that is funny, at times hilarious, but lastly, is a film about finding truth within ourselves. It's a powerful film, that left me astonished!
Aamir Khan in and as "PK" portrays one of the most likable and genuinely innocent characters I've ever seen. His performance makes the already unique movie even better. I will say that this movie starts off as a comedy with a few laughs here and there but nothing was all that compelling for me at first. However, as the movie progressed and the story unraveled, it became a great one. This is a brilliant social satire with a truly original story. I was impressed by the bold statements the movie had to say about society and was consistently entertained by a majority of it. It's a movie that'll make you laugh and will also deeply touch you with its message. It is simply another fine example of Aamir Khan delivering some of the best work from Bollywood and it shouldn't be missed.
Consistently highly engaging despite its long runtime, very moving in its third act, endearing in its wonderful characters and quite funny as well, PK thoroughly succeeds as a terrific sci-fi comedy which isn't just fun and funny, but also has a lot to say about the inherent flaws, foolish traditions and backwards ideas that stem from all organized religions. Rajkumar Hirani's direction is superb as is the performance from Anushka Sharma, but it's charismatic Aamir Khan who steals the show as the wonderful and highly sympathetic titular protagonist. It's just a great Bollywood movie overall.
