Blah, too Long, too long and too long.

Rating: 7/10 (18 December 2008)

Im beginning to see a trend in shahrukh khan movies where he tries to crack jokes like "mind it" from Om Shanti Om, and his silly shivering and trying to maintain a conversation with a girl. Don't get me wrong I've practically worshipped this guy since DDLJ and KKHH, no one can be a bigger fan. But now its getting to me. Rab ne has a fantastic beginning with him playing a different character who is shy, loving caring and devoted. Anushkha sharma does a great job but she is far tooo tall for him, and looks far too young. the girl is probably in her teens and he's in his 40's even when he tries to look younger in the second half he still doesn't pull it off. On every scene srk has tears in his eyes for "sacrificial love" and that gets monotonous. I don't think Aditiya Chopra directed this movie. Even in the making videos he is no where to be seen. I missed Karan Johar. Even if the story wasn't strong, his dialogues, costumes, songs, direction would take the movie places. In conclusion this movie is far fetched (watch out for the "i love you" scene where supposedly srk lights up the city for anushka). I would call this movie a pass, and Im disappointed in srk. Watch Swades or Chakde India, don't waste time on this.
