A worthy TZP sequel ...

Rating: 8/10 (25 December 2009)

When Munnabhai's satire meets sensibilities of Taare Zameen Par.. you get 3 idiots!
Hirani and Aamir seems to be trying hard to out do each other with their excellence. That's why they have so easily been able to portray what this movie is all about "... chase excellence and success will be a byproduct..".
Music of Aamir movies has always been situational and generally doesn't pick up unil one sees the movie. That's true even for this one too and "All Izz Well" will certainly going to play new tag lines for youth since they last changed "Chak De".
Movie tries to cover a lot of issues plagueing our higher education system especially in context of Middle class aspirations. Engineering and Medicine are like religion. Although idealism shown in favor of innovation and out-of-box thinking is certainly need of the hour.
Boman Irani may be getting typed in "Director/Professor" cast; but then you always feel like a breath of fresh air whenever he is on screen. Sharman joshi had done good justice to his role. Madhvan could have done more justice to his role, but i feel his passion for photography was not aptly portrayed either; in order to have a convincing concluding scene. It was great to see Parkshit Sahni after so much time and a couple of dialogues from Sharman's mother were excellent; especially "Pizza ki 30 minute delivery ki guarantee hai, par ambulance 2 ghante mein bhi nahin aati".
Aamir has proved it again that till the time he is around, intelligent cinema will be around.
