Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Aedonerre I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.

FrogGlace In other words,this film is a surreal ride.

Married Baby Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

sttsanjay It is one of the better movies of Bollywood. This story of a reckless guy finally realizing his 'Lakshya' is inspiring. There are so many scenes to love in this film. The phone conversation between the Hrithik and his Dad, and the scene where Hrithik tells Pretty Zinta his 'Lakshya' were terrific. I have watched it multiple times but haven't gotten over it yet.

ankushmaheshwari-17 The story of an uncertain young man who eventually finds his Lakshya (Goal). The journey of becoming passionate, and a motivated Indian Army officer from a casual, and a lethargic individual has been told beautifully. The direction, the plot, the songs, and the choreography gel well with the overall theme of the movie. The occasional humor at one or two places in the movie to an otherwise serious story-line is engaging. The Cinematography is aesthetically appealing to the eyes. The several backdrops of the region of the Baramula, and the Kargil are breathtaking. The movie was shot at few places of New Delhi. Tuglakabad fort is one of these places. Being a resident of Delhi, you might find it interesting. The cast and the crew of the movie have many celebrated actors. Amitabh Bachchan, Hrithik Roshan, Preity Zinta, and Om Puri have done the justice to their characters. Boman Irani could have done better, though.The main character of the movie has been played by Hrithik Roshan. He has been very expressive. The transition of his character from being a very casual human being to a very passionate and a motivated individual has been enacted really well by him. He has danced admirably to justify the amazing choreography of Prabhu Deva.Preity Zinta was elegant in playing a character of a young independent working woman who had a vivid interest in Journalism. Farhan Akhtar has done his job well. You might find it interesting that one of the many background scores employed in this movies has been used in his movie 'Rock-On'. Farhan Akhtar essentially has drawn inspiration from this movie for his upcoming releases.Overall a very balanced and an engaging cinematic experience.

leonardsimpson Lakshya revolves around Karan Shergil,who is a carefree college guy with a girlfriend.The character of Karan is somewhere like all of us, as he does not thinks too much about whats going on around him,does not have a very cordial relationship with his typical Indian father and gets constantly compared to his brother.The film is beautifully shot especially the scenes of kargil.Farhan Akhtar has done a very good job with this film,and for me this is his best work till date. Music of the film is good too but the background score is awesome.It gives you all the kicks and goosebumps in the combat and war scenes.Since the dialogues of the film are written by javed akhtar therefore the film keeps you gripped with the story line.Amitabh Bachchan is perfect,his awesome articulation of the amazing lines written by javed akhtar is unprecedented.Amitabh should have gotten a "best supporting actor"prize for this movie.Priety zinta and all other actors are fine too. Needless to mention about the fine work done by Hrithik Roshan.I know the movie is "defence aspirants' " must watch but i think everybody should watch this at least once. And yea since some part of the movie is shot in the IMA,so those scenes are priceless.

HeadleyLamarr After seeing liking Dil Chahta Hai and Don I wanted to see other films by Farhan Akhtar. Lakshya surprised me quite a bit. The coming of age of an aimless young man (Karan played by Hritik Roshan) was shown quite well in this film. His motivation is love, he decides to stop drifting and joins the army, after a false start he does shape up and then realizes he might have lost his love (Romi - Preity Zinta) to someone else in the process. Posted near the Kargil border his bravery and dedication to his country is amply tested. He also encounters Romi as a war journalist. In the end he does reach his Lakshya - his goal, and achieves personal growth in the process.The movie is beautifully shot in locale in Delhi, Dehradun and in Kashmir. The scenery is stunning and some of the war footage is mind blowing. There is a rock climbing episode that will remind the viewer of the Guns of Navarone but is spectacular all the same. Mr. Roshan make a very believable war hero and seems well capable of the heroics he performs. Miss Zinta is good in a not so major role.. The big B is very restrained as Col. Damle and the rest of the cast does their job really well. The music is good except for the first song with Hritik dancing in front of all the mirrors - that is just bad. The story has some inconsistencies - why is she the only journalist at the front line? How did they let her in so close to the fighting? But in the end Lakshya is a serious story about the journey into adulthood, and becoming man enough to shoulder responsibilities that come your way. Watch it - but be warned, it is not a popcorn flick!
