      amazing indian movies

      Although the film is very good, I still had to skip a few songs and dances. Although the songs and dances have a little relationship with the plot, the songs and dances in Hindi are really not an art form that the Chinese people like to see.

      Aside from these songs and dances, this film is definitely an excellent work, continuing the nonsense of the three fools. Although the one-hour PK journey of seeking gods is a little boring, the rhythm is accelerated step by step, and the humor...

      Amnesiac wrote two reviews in two months

      I remember that most people were touched by 3 idiots, but I thought it was just pop, so I didn't read the trailer or the comments, just for the 45-year-old starring and director RH, who could pretend to be a young man with quali. I didn't expect to laugh There were tears, and I cried twice and a half - the persistence of the heroine's other half, the sacrifice of the hero's good friend, the hero's stubborn crush on the heroine. . 2.5 hours goes by quickly, the bright plots and pictures are...

      Deconstructing religion from an alien perspective

      In a country like India where religion is the most important and the various sects are mixed, making a film against religion is very likely to be jinxed, and it may also lead to hatred. The movie chose the angle of aliens, which is very fortunate. Since it is an alien, let's let it go.
      The story is long, and the narrative threads are always clear. Compared with the three idiots in previous years, this film has more depth, and it is not a pure laugh. There are happy songs and dances, and...

      my god

      When I first saw the promo, I thought it was going to be a downright funny movie. It's actually quite informative. There will be a lot of singing and dancing in Indian movies, and this is also a feature of them. The singing and dancing are in line with the development of the plot. It feels a bit messy at the beginning of the movie, PK an alien who doesn't know anything about Indian religions, but starts practicing every religion in order to get home. Just like every newborn baby, their...

      Brief comment

      One of the most interesting films I've seen recently; of course, because it's a Hindi movie, it has to be dubbed, and the dubbing feels a bit like the 80's movie that CCTV 6 broadcasts.
      This film mainly focuses on the issue of religion, and the others are just a foil to introduce the topic, but the form of presentation is particularly interesting.
      In particular, it is very touching to describe PK's hard pursuit of God. Indian films are pretty good, significantly higher than Thai...

      It is very interesting and effective to look at religious issues in India from an alien perspective (the whole film is defamiliarized), and it also confirms that some human behaviors (such as religious superstition) are indeed ridiculous. In fact, the religious issue here is more of an intergenerational conflict and a lack of science education. Some of the ideologies in mainstream Indian films are indeed staggeringly bold, but unfortunately their aesthetics are still...

      Wouldn't it kill to put this in India?...

      It's no wonder that the absurdity, love, and religious discussion can be integrated so perfectly. The writing, directing, and acting of Indian films are not inferior to Shakespeare's...

      1. The beginning and the end are love (the first is the sudden sweetness and misunderstanding of love, and the end is the reunification of love, the truth is supreme and a hundred years of harmony) in the middle is a joke about Indian religion. For the exposure and confrontation of the magic stick, it is meaningless. 2. "Dial the right number" is just a good...

    Background creation

    In July 2012, Amir Khan’s 17-year-old son Junaid confirmed that he was hired as the first assistant director of Rakuma Hirani to assist in the film starring his father. It is said that Hillani hopes to produce the film independently, so he is both a director and a producer.
    In October 2012, part of Rakuma Hirani's planned shooting in Italy was postponed due to climatic conditions and weather problems. In November 2012, director Rakuma...

    Evaluation action

    Compared with the comedy style of the film, the value concept of the film itself and the behind-the-scenes controversy caused by social criticism seem to confirm its success. Its topicality is like detonating a bomb, instantly detonating the Indian religious society. Hindus burned posters in public to protest. Yoga masters and politicians spoke publicly and boycotted the film. Amir Khan, who appeared in the nude for the first time...

    • P.K.: Which god should I believe? You all say that, it's only one god. I say, no... there are two gods. One is the one who created us all. The other one is the one created by people like you. We know nothing about the god who made us all. But the god people like you made is exactly like you... liar, pretend to act, giving false promises, meeting rich people sooner, letting the poor neglected, happy when get praised... People are afraid to even say a word. My right number is very simple, the God who created us all, put faith in Him. And the god like you created, the duplicate god, destroy it.
