DVD Reviews of Om Shanti Om
DVD Review: Buy the blu-ray version and you'll love it.
Summary: 4 Stars
Picture quality is excellent and is a joy watching it on my big screen TV every time. This movie has great songs which I have seen many many times over. Sadly the Blu-ray disk did not have a songs menu which is why I deducted a star. Maybe recent buyers can comment if the newer disks have added a songs menu. A very nice addition to the collection.DVD Review: OSO on blu?? absolutely stunning!!
Summary: 5 Stars
i love bollywood films - their songs and dances are just so catching that it makes you want to get up and dance along with them.
srk is my fav. bollywood actor and when i heard his film, OSO is on blu, i wanted to get it right away. i found it through one of amazon's 3rd party merchant for under 17 dollars! what a steal!
this one on blu ray is just absolutely gorgeous! vibrant vibrant colours and settings and lavish costumes makes for a super entertaining almost 3 hours! the songs and dances are so fun and catching. i bet all the stars on here had a wonderful time - you could definitely tell. :)
if you haven't, get this on blu - it's a fun fun film.
DVD Review: Must See
Summary: 4 Stars
Actor Shahrukh Khan is the ultimate showman and Om Shanti Om the perfect showcase for his brand of talent. This campy, retro spoof is directed by Farah Khan, who choreographed the Broadway musical Bombay Dreams, and she brings that same theatrical style to her filmmaking. The first half of the movie is set in the 1970s--and it's a tribute to the Hindi films of that decade. Struggling actor Om Prakash (played by Shahrukh) falls in love with starlet Shanti (Deepika Padukone in her Bollywood debut)--but fate drives them apart. Fast-forward 30 years and Om has been reincarnated as a huge star with the same first name, and a wannabe actress named Sandhya helps him rectify the past. Om Shanti Om is full of cameos--the title-track dance number alone features appearances by more than 30 Bollywood stars--as well as inside jokes that only those familiar with Bollywood will get (one particular scene at the Filmfare awards ceremony--Bollywood's Oscars--is hilarious), but anyone with any level of knowledge will realize that the actors are making fun of themselves, providing plenty of laughs. - The Bollywood Ticket: The American guide to Indian movies (Subscribe: The Bollywood Ticket)DVD Review: People REALLY like this movie? Why?
Summary: 1 Stars
OMO is a very average movie. I think Farah Khan is one of the most overblown over-hyped film maker. Actually the word film-maker doesn't describe her. This is more like an MTV movie. A lot of flash without any heart. She said she was after Shahrukh a lot to make this movie and I understand why he was playing hide and seek with her. Now don't get me wrong. The first half was very funny thanks to SRK's wit. She actually said he improvised a lot during the filming and she kept it because it was so funny. Good move sherlock. However, please don't put this movie up there with there with the greats. Lets not encourage this kind of garbage. You want to see great bollywood movies, try "A wednesday, Chak de India, Baghban, Tarre Zameen Par, Fanna, Jab we met, Omkara, Sarkar". DVD Review: Oh! Deepika Oh!
Summary: 5 Stars
Oh! Deepika Oh!
Funny move. Great songs and dances. Really fine acting by everyone including the "junior artists". Shahrukh Khan is his usual self and is in great physical condition for this film. With shirt off or open, in "Darda Disco", he provides legitimate competition to Hrithik Roshan while dancing with some sizzling hot sensual sirens.
Deepika Padukone shines as both the serious sophisticated Shanti and the ditzy charming star-struck Sandy. What a dazzling big-eyed beauty she is. As good as this movie is she makes it better, along with Arjun Rampal who took the part of the villain when he didn't really want to.
This movie rocks from the deliberately cheesy opening song and dance, through 2 more strong songs and dances numbers, through a really funny and clever spoof of an award ceremony, through the dance party with 31 big name stars on stage, all the way to end where the cast and crew humorously run through the final credits leaving Fara Kahn in a funny situation. Oh, yeah, a fairly serious plot was resolved some where in there too, with its own haunting melody. Well done Farah Kahn.
