must-watch for music lovers!

Rating: 9/10 (4 January 2012)

I always thought that Quentin Tarantino is the only filmmaker who deserves to be worshiped. Enter Imtiaz Ali ~ he has literally rocked the art of direction with Rockstar. The no-holds-barred, convention-breaking display of raw emotion took my breath away. Great job rejecting formula!
Ranbir is flawless: a fitting heir to Raj and even Rishi Kapoor. (remember bobby?) Imtiaz Ali and Ranbir should split the credit for Rockstar, 60-40%
A R Rahman: I guess this is what won me. The music is extremely original, peppy yet passionate, and memorable!
On the flipside, the babes (especially Nargis, who's arms and ostrich neck flail wildly out of sync 'with' her dialogues) are passable and even irritating (though I would definitely date whoever the hell the sidekick chick was)
All in all, a must-watch. I have walked this planet for 31 years and no other movie has given me such extensive goosebumps.
