3 Idiots (2009)
7/10
Enjoyable But Falls Far Short Of "Taare Zameen Par"
11 July 2015
I like Bollywood Films for the most part, and especially "Like Stars On Earth", "Outsourced", "Slumdog Millionaire", and "My Name is Khan", but "3 Idiots", while certainly entertaining and having a message that is a corollary to "Taare", it suffers from uneven storytelling, going from silly, broad, caricatured comedy one minute, to serious, realistic, highly emotional moments that elicit tears. Some characters are so over the top as to be almost Keystone Koppish, and others very genuine, and still others, rather inconsistent. Still, overall, an entertaining watch with a very worthwhile message to follow your dreams and make your work seem like play.
