3 Idiots Blu-Ray

such a good movie, hilarious, and packed with so many lessons. romance, comedy, action, education, all in one. super enlightening. this is my father’s favorite movie, and my favorite go to movie. have watched this an insurmountable amount of times, and have made many friends watch with me as well. definitely give it a try!!! this movie gets you into usc~ (wrote about it on my application)

I've never watched anything from Bollywood before, but this movie is hilarious! Very long but it's so worth watching!

I don't know how to write a review that does this movie justice. I would say that it's a fun comedy with a little romance in it, with some really fantastic songs, but it also made me cry in a couple of places. This movie follows the typical format of the exceptional student/teacher who arrives in schools and challenges the status quo. But unlike all the Hollywood movies, 3 Idiots does this with heart, humor, and soul. Unlike most Bollywood movies that I've seen, this movie starts off right away. It is a bit choppy at first, just throwing characters and conflict at the viewer with no explanation, but once the story begins to unfold (through a series of flashbacks) we find ourselves entranced by Aamir Khan's 'Rancho' and his 2 friends. Kareena Kapoor plays her usual charming character, which never seems to get old. The rest of the cast is fantastic and there are plenty of old familiar names to go along with new interesting actors. Note: All of the inventions shown in the film are actual things that have been invented in India within the last 20 years. How cool is that?! I watched this movie twice in a week, once again the following week, and then again with my teenage son. After that, I decided that I had to own it. That's how good this movie is. Watch it. You can thank me later.

This is the fourth movie I've seen starring Aamir Khan and each time I'm more impressed with his ability as an actor. I love the social message his movies send. This movie is about 3 roommates who become lifelong friends at a prestigious engineering university and a fourth student who is only concerned with prestige, achievement and money. It explores the pressure students at the university are under to succeed combined with family pressure to be an engineer, whether or not it's their passion. I'm American but a huge Bollywood fan and while I'm used to the typical music-filled romance movies, this movie was refreshing and I immediately wanted the best for the characters from the beginning to the end. That's not to say there's no romance. Kareena Kapoor is a wonderful addition to the cast as Aamir's love interest, they complement each other well. This movie flawlessly takes a comedic approach to a serious issue while appreciating the seriousness of the subject matter. Honestly if mainstream Hollywood attempted this I probably would not have given this movie the time of day. If you are new to Bollywood beware, movies tend to be at least 3 hours and this movie runs just short of that. The first half begins as 2 of the main characters are looking for Aamir's character and their story in college is juxtaposed with it. The second half focuses on their lives after college as they continue their journey. It's not confusing, just more layered than most Hollywood movies. I'd recommend this to anyone, Indian or not, Bollywood fan or not if nothing else for the message it sends: to go after your passion. This movie displays friendship, love, sadness, challenges and comedy.

Quite possibly my favorite film of everything I've seen in 2012, this three-hour ride is a road trip/buddy picture, comedy, drama, Bollywood musical, and romance all rolled into one hell of a great film. Starting off in modern day, a pair of friends reunited before taking off on a trek to find their close friend Rancho, the fellow student they knew back in engineering school who changed both their lives forever ... and disappeared almost immediately after graduating. Thinking they have a line on him, they instead come across another of their fellow students from back in the day - this time not a friend, but a guy who wants to get back at Rancho and the boys for the way he was treated back in their school days. Via flashbacks (the bulk of the film) showing how the friends met and became close, to their days at the engineering school and the supreme pressure they and their peers were put under, to typical college-style pranks and the first times of falling in love, this film has everything; you'll laugh out loud, shed more than a few tears ... but more than anything else, in the end really feel like you were on a journey, and really got to know and care for these characters as though they were friends of your own. A stellar film, worth not only seeing but owning. Brilliant.

Farhan (R. Madhavan), Raju (Sharman Joshi) and Rancho (Aamir Khan) meet as freshmen at the Imperial College of Engineering. While Farhan and Raju are in college with the sole purpose of a degree for a job, Rancho wants to learn for sake of learning and has a nontraditional approach to education. This causes him trouble with the Dean (Boman Irani), despite his obvious intellect and ability. Rancho's unusual view of life causes upheaval in the lives of Farhan and Raju, in both negative and positive ways, creating a deep bond of friendship. Rancho dropped out of their lives immediately after graduation, however, and hearing a rumor of where he is from a fellow classmate (played by Omi Vaidya), they set out on a road trip to find him. (Kareena Kapoor plays the love interest.) The well-written plot of this comedy-drama is charming, funny (though not ridiculous or over-the-top as the title might indicate), moving, and completely enjoyable. The chemistry between the three leads is excellent; they are completely convincing as tight-knit friends. Khan is outstanding, with Madhavan (a favorite of mine from Tamil films) and Joshi also giving strong performances. I usually find Kapoor to be stiff and not fully believable, but this somewhat small role was a good one for her, and she shone. This multiple award winning film deserves it's accolades, and if the music had been better than average, would be a full five-star movie.

This movie is universally funny and engaging. Don’t be afraid of subtitles! This is a modern classic with a great story and warm, layered performances, especially by superstar Aamir Khan. People that have never watched Hindi films enjoyed it, you will too! I am American, not a Hindi speaker by the way, but a big fan of Indian movies. Enjoy!

I will always love this movie because of the way it shows the toll your mental health takes and suicide. This is one of aamir Kahn’s best movies and it has helped me find ways to calm down by telling myself all is well all is well over and over! This follows the story of raju, fernan, and silencer on the quest to find their friend that left them after college. The hilarious trip has all kinds of great music and comedy and best of all it’s family friendly so even kids of all ages can watch this movie! I will always recommend this movie to everyone!

Another fantastic movie.

Another great movie from Amir. He has proved that he is a great genius with his movie 'Three Idiots'. The movie make fun of the prevailing educational system in our country. which gives importance to rot learning stifling creativity and imagination. He also ridicule the obsession with costly things.He rightly points out that if the watch that costs one crore Indian rupees and the one that costs just hundred rupees show same time.why should one go after such costly things? He exposes our snobbery very well.

Te hace reír, llorar, enamorarte, todo….

Une amie m'a dit, après avoir vu ce film, "C'est une vrai leçon de vie". Je crois qu'en effet, ces paroles qualifient bien ce chef d'oeuvre indien. C'est l'histoire de trois indiens à la fac, qui vont apprendre qu'il faut suivre ses propres envies, et ne pas se laisser influencer par ce que leur disent leur parents, qu'ils considèrent comme juste pour eux. Drôle, attachant, poignant parfois, on se retrouve dans le film... Il est tout simplement magique !
