Solidrariol Am I Missing Something?

SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

Bivabasu Ghosh This mid budget Bollywood movie emphasis on an important aspect of life. Centre of the movie is a Indian male who is about to get married with his bright future of his career ahead. As usual like a bright mathematician he rotaries his career ahead of his personal life. And his coming marriage face a question mark. Now comes the tricky part - time travel. How? Don't ask - this is not a science fiction; so you can skip/ignore that part. Let's take for the cinematic reason, that the main character can (or rather compiled to) travel through time (without his own interest and intention though) to see the future and fix the past (rather future past). And when he did all of them, he brought back to present (don't ask by whom and how). Thus comes the happy ending.The main message of the movie is - the happiness of life are hidden in the small things (like going to your child's soccer game, stand by with your partner at her first expedition) - so don't ignore them. If you take care of these small things, the big things will be taken care of. Putting my personal opinion on this aside, let's see how the movie is. Entertainment is there like a general Bollywood movie. Complete family movie. No major intimate scene to be embarrassed in front of parent/children. Music and background scores are also good (lets not forget the end track - the item song 'Kala Chashma' which is among the top 10 Hindi song viewed in YouTube). But overall, as per my opinion, you won't feel like to watch the movie 2nd time. Nice movie to relax with your partner/family.

JD Very surprised at the low rating. I thought this movie would turn out to be a blockbuster after I saw it. I am a very selective movie watcher and I simply adored this movie. It captures the essence of how to live life more fully and what matters the most eventually. Very dramatically sequenced. The characters seem real, the direction is great, the story moves at a fast pace. Lots of surprises and twists to keep you hooked. Overall its great entertainment and leaves you with food for thought. Whoever created the storyline, the direction, the script and whatever goes into movie making did a great job! Watch it with your family. Everyone should see it at least once. Would watch it again!

parveenchandra11 BBD has a few basic elements, which are really rather good:1) Basic idea is this: "While waiting for the big moments of happiness in life, we miss out on these small moments of happiness" (From Bawarchi, 1972).2) Time travel/ Groundhog day: Hero goes to sleep and wakes up at consecutively increasingly further out time points in the future (10 days, 2 years, 15/16 years in 2034). At the third one (2034) he realizes he's messed up big, and promises to fix things. Goes to sleep crying, and this time wakes up 10 years before (2023) and manages to make the wrong choices. Next leap takes him 26 years in the future, at the death of his mother. This is the furthest out in time, and he realizes his priorities should be different. Goes to sleep, and wakes up at the only repeat time point (year 2023) - chooses to put his family first, and then comes back to 2016 (the present).The premise was rather good. I liked the elements underlying the story. The execution was... not so great.Some points that stuck out for me:1) The hero is rather taken aback when his girlfriend proposes marriage, and doesn't come back with an enthusiastic enough "yes". It's a scene where we're supposed to empathise with the heroine and pity the hero. He really should've leapt at the chance of marrying KK. why? Everyone has a right to make their own decisions in life, no? If he wants to think about it, let him. 2) All the wedding preparations frustrate the groom (hero) - how selfish and disrespectful of him! (It's rather normal; why paint the poor boy in a bad light because of these small issues!)And what's wrong with wanting to go abroad for job/education? Our movies would have you believe that you shouldn't venture out because our family and friends are here... Well, a lot many people actually do come back. Nothing wrong with seeing the world a little.3) In the year 2023, when KK's character reminds her husband that there's a show in the evening, she says something to the tune of how "will you remember?" and "you're useless". Their two small children are running around! And she's supposed to be a good mother? It's the worst kind of parents that paint their spouse in a bad light in front of the kids.Btw, just fyi, men without full time jobs are 33% more likely to divorce: aka to remain married, the guy needs to be working -- according to a recently published paper (Killewald, ASR 2016); also quoted in TIME magazine (http://time.com/4425061/unemployment-divorce-men-women/)4) Somebody has a vendetta against maths/logic and mathematicians, and doesn't even know what maths is (more on the second half later). The pandit (Rajit Kapur) says logic doesn't explain what's important in life. Which our poor hero doesn't understand because all he understands is maths! Understanding of maths and relationships/values are not mutually exclusive! 5) Classroom scene in one of the time leaps: a student says that you said you have a solution to Fermat's last theorem, how does this affect bla bla bla. Guess what Fermat's last theorem was "proven" 20 years ago, first valid proof presented in 1994 (only about 350 years after the conjecture was stated). A 5 min googling could've take care of this jarring moment.6) The H is supposedly a math genius. And the script writers have no clue what that entails.Being able to find square roots, products of large numbers, is not the same as being able to prove and postulate mathematical theorems and lemmas. Hero is either a student or professor of mathematics, and apparently he's written a paper on Vedic maths. His appointment to Cambridge is based on that. Quick note on VM: it is a collection of tricks to do mental arithmetic, not what maths is really about. Please look up Quora for an involved discussion on the topic. A quote from S.G. Dani (http://www.tifr.res.in/~vahia/dani- vmsm.pdf): "lack of adequate attention to academic pursuits... has unfortunately resulted, on the one hand, in a lack of awareness of our historical role in actual terms and, on the other, an empty sense of pride which is more of an emotional reaction to the colonial domination rather than an intellectual challenge. Together they provide a convenient ground for extremist and misguided elements in society to "reconstruct history" from nonexistent or concocted source material to whip up popular euphoria."And I'm not even a mathematician :|7) My guess is that this was someone's understanding of Good Will Hunting's ending - that he leaves "maths" to be with the girl... Look at the interview scene (with NSA), it doesn't preclude Will Hunting's working on maths, just not with those guys. And yes, we need to have both in our lives - work and relationships. There should be a balance between the two. 8) One more teensy weensy thing... the futuristic technology... uh... there are driver less, self-driving cars already around on roads (Uber has launched driverless cars in Pittsburg, PA, USA). Various corporations have been testing those for quite some time. It would've been fantastic if could've incorporated that in their futuristic settings. But maybe that really is too much to expect...Final verdict: Well, this is definitely a movie you can see with your family or friends without blushing! If you're at the mall, and need to go watch something, this ain't a bad choice. Or, skip the movie tickets, go eat out :)

bhattaswagato I went to watch the movies with my wife .We loved it. It was touching, comedy, and emotional. It has a message that is worth remembering. It is not the big things, but the emotional small things.. being there for each other that matters the most. We, guys, forget our life and chase life. When it is too late, do we get another chance? We can all relate somewhat with the movie. I enjoyed it a lot. If you have the time, do watch it. It will not be disappointing. Actress Katrina beautifully portrayed her role. I liked the jokes too. What was missing was more showing of the future. And, we would have loved to see how the actress fell in love again with another men. That seemed like enough to feel repulsed.
