Am I Missing Something?

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

I admit this movie may not be everybody's cup of tea but I thought it was brilliant. If your looking for your usual bollywood action and transatlantic sing songs look away because the only action this movie contains was 'lip action' and all the songs are shot in the same country. There weren't even that many costume changes in the songs. Sorry to disappoint, but 'bollywood is moving on' and this movie represents the previous statement greatly. I thought Ranbir was a moderate to good actor before I saw this movie but now I have realised that he has a kind of 'naturalness' to his acting in the sense that it is not too forced and that he is a minimalist actor, like actors from the 60's or 70's era. Priyanka, an unmistakable performance as usual.

Before I start reviewing this movie, let me just say that I took two points off because- one for the lame jokes or well attempts at jokes, and another for the predictability of the movie.Now. Anjaana Anjaani. First look at the trailer or sneak peek and honestly, you don't really know what to expect from the movie. But you do know that it will be good because one- it looks DIFFERENT (something which Bollywood movies sometimes cannot do) two-the star cast looks good, and three- the director. Sajid Nadiadwala has made good movies in the past, so one expects this one to be successful too.So the movie begins with us seeing Akash (Ranbir Kapoor) walking to his suicide point, a bridge in NYC. We then find out the reason of him wanting to suicide is because he is the cause of the entire stock market crashing. As he is about to jump off the bridge, enter Kiara (Priyanka Chopra) who is drunk at the time and tells him not to hesitate and just do it. After many interrupted attempts by Akash, the coast guard catches them and tells them to get off the bridge. After they do so, Akash jumps in front of a car, and Kiara attempts again but instead, falls ON the actual bridge.Later, after meeting at the same hospital, they decide to attempt again, but together, at Kiara's house. After more than two or three MORE failed attempts, Kiara thinks that maybe they have something to complete in life so they decide to suicide on New Year's Eve at midnight.This is what leads up to the actual story. Up until this point, it is quite interesting and cute to watch. Then, the dramatic points get a bit annoying after a while, mixed in with the flashbacks, songs one after another, gets a bit annoying. Overall, it is a very good movie, but not as good as one expects. Ranbir Kapoor is an amazing actor and he has proved it mainly with this movie. Note the scene in the hotel room- the expressions are priceless. Not singling out Priyanka Chopra. You actually start to believe she is Kiara after one point. Note the sequence in the car when she breaks down and cuts her hair. It is extremely moving.Recommended if you would like a bit of a change, but maybe wait till it comes out on DVD.

This movie was quite interesting, it's very realistic of what many many people throughout the World experience almost everyday of their lives. This movie had equal balance of comedy, romance,twists, thrills, and sadness. Now let's talk about the acting. Ranbir Kapoor was born to play this role, he yet again delivers and I just couldn't picture anyone else doing this role. Now on to Priyanki, maybe I'm a little biased but I never like her acting that much except in one movie which was mujhse shaadi karogi. But in this movie she did fairly well but I could see many other actresses in this role but she also pulled it off nicely. It was so refreshing to see Zyed Khan back on big screen, he's a very under rated actor who deserves to be seen a lot more. He did his role fantastically. Overall I highly recommend people to watch this movie especially those who are going through a rough patch in their lives. The ending was very predictable, anyone could've imagine that within half-way.

First 10 to 20 Minutes will make you to expect a different movie, then comes the most boring scenes in recent times. It will check your temper till interval. Post Interval have few good scenes which you might enjoy with your lover and then comes the OLD Hindi Melodrama with lot of tears and then a Happy ending with a Hug. The Narration is too slow for viewers to adjust in the first half, while second have good scope for a good love story like that of Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge or Jab We Met. Whatever happening in the name of Comedy will make you feel to walk away from theater, are just torturing. Most of the scene all around are predictable and sometimes is too boring and lengthy.The Story is as old as Color movies in Hindi. But the movie can watched for the chemistry and the beauty of the top two actors Ranbir Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra. Priyanka Chopra is the heart of the movie. Apart from good looking Ranbir Kapoor is not good enough for melodrama scenes. Two of the songs are also catchy and for a Musical film like this it should have given more importance to Songs. The Directed had tried to give a Hollywood touch in desi Love Fantasy story.
