A marvelous movie. A movie that seems to be a live broadcast from a few Indian kitchens. Though small portions of the movie did make me question about the realistic outlooks of the movie, the overall experience was pretty satisfactory. The acting and the direction was par excellence. The story is carried out in such a manner that you can feel the frustration, irritation and desperation of the character. Though there is hardly a light moment in the entire movie, and though the movie is serious to the point of leaving you feeling asphyxiated towards the end of it, you realize that is the very motive of the movie. To make you feel the life of a great many kitchens in India. However, there was an altogether different realization of mine that was reaffirmed when I watched this movie. It made me appreciate the men in my life a lot more. Be it having a father, who I have never ever seen make specific demands about what he wanted to eat, and always be satisfied with whatever was laid out on the dinner table. Or having a husband who can and does manage the entire household; from preparing the tastiest of pohas to knowing what grocery has been used up in the kitchen and ordering it up at the right time to cleaning our washrooms - an individual who has proven to be a 'partner' in every sense. Having a brother who understands and appreciates the Industry that is an Indian Kitchen and helps out from time to time. And having a brother-in-law who can hold his own in the kitchen and household as well as his brother does. But who I appreciate the most is probably my father-in-law, who in spite of being from a different generation, has a mindset miles ahead of his time when it comes to managing the kitchen/household. From knowing exactly where in the kitchen each vessel is kept, to being able to answer when his kids or daughter-in-laws approach with a question about where the latest packet of mustard is stored, his hold on the know-how of the kitchen amazes me. From being the best sou-chef, be it by keeping all the ingredients ready when his daughter-in-law is cooking or by chopping the onions in the exact shape and size she wants, to being the chef of a a few of her favorite breakfasts and taking pride in it- his outlook and mindset in the field never fails to win my admiration. My father and brother are people I have lived with all my life and hence know well, but my in-laws are what life gave me when I chose my partner. So, I wouldn't have had a say in the way their mindset is shaped. So, admiration is well deserved, wouldn't you agree? P.S: I think even the people who don't know malayalam would find it easy to follow this movie

One of my fav movies. Definitely. It has all kinds of characters, but it shows that everybody is basically good. No evil, dark villains. Like Simon says, he has everything good going for him. He has pretty amazing friends, dependable, understanding and supporting family. Even good friends and acquaintances at school. It shows how even though you are surrounded by people who love you, understand you and you know for a fact will stand by you , no matter what, you still feel scared at times to reveal your true self. But it also shows how supportive and accepting people around you should and can be. Its a positive, feel good movie. And I am going to watch it again.

Its a unique concept. I have always believed you cant have a better partner than your best friend. And that to spend an entire life together its very important that you not just have passion for each other but also to have true and genuine friendship. So I could really get on board with the concept of two best friends choosing each other to be the potential parent for their kid. Jase and Jule have known each other since they were 19 and have spent every major/minor step of their life ever since together. They knew the other as well as themselves, trusted the other better than anyone else. The speech Jase makes about Jule, explaining why he chose her to be his kids mom was a mesmerizer. It explained it all. Beautiful. The whole journey of the movie was so lovely and logical. Nowhere did I feel ..naah..that cant happen. The whole thing, the feelings experienced by both, the decisions they took, everything appeared really pragmatic to movie. I loved watching this movie and certainly recommend it to anyone who loves romantic movies or has a really great best friend.

One of my all time favorites for the last 6 to 7 years. I keep returning back to this from time to time. The BGM coaxes you in right from the beginning. Its an intriguing tale. I dont usually watch action movies. But the action in this one is something I have always loved watching. The chemistry between Prince Dastan and Princess Tamina is fun to watch. A beautiful, feel-good movie.

This one has gone int my favorite movies of all time list. It makes you cry, it makes you invested in the lives of the characters, it makes you laugh, and at the end it gives you hope and a belief in love and family. The acting by all characters especially RDJ and Robert Duvall steal your breath away. I don't wanna state the obvious. But RDJ is downright awesome. No question about that, is there?

Wow. A movie with a strong message if any. Great movie. Tom Hanks acting skills blow your mind. No wonder he won the academy award for this one. How Denzel Washington's character represents the majority of public and their believes and how he chooses to still overcome his fears and take a stand for Andrew because a law was broken and how slowly he comes around to accepting the homosexual orientations of gay community is a journey well traversed by the movie. But a side story that really stole the show for me and brought tears to my eyes at the end was Miguel's love for Andrew.

Great movie. You don't get all the great courtroom speeches and trial lawyers who make history in this one. What you do get however are two inexperienced and fresh lawyers. One whose honesty, commitment to the cause and pure conscience is a fresh, not-ever-seen in lawyers trait. And the other sneaky, bit more experienced legal team member who doesnt have the license to practice law. The rainmaker is definitely a law movie one of its kind.

Loved the movie. You find yourself rooting for Rosie and Alex from the start to the end. The missed opportunities might make you want to pull your hair out at times. I absolutely loved the supportive family Rosie had. Also her best friend Ruby. Good movie. Loved it :)

Really liked Tom Cruise's acting in this one. Jack Nicholson is so convincing in his role that you are disgusted by him after watching him for his first 3 minutes in the movie. All in all it was a really good movie.

Ha ha ha.. That was hilarious.. loved the movie. Would be a great movie to sit around with your friends and watch. Never even realized it didn't have any male leads or romantic angles to it. Thats what happens when you put together the cast of acting gems like Sandra Bullocks and Melissa McCarthy.
