Featured reviews
The movie was highly entertaining to me despite all the bad reviews I had read before watching it.
Sure enough it is not Vishal Bardwaj's Maqbool or Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Black and I didn't watch it with that expectation. It is an entertaining family movie with a nice plot and a lot of action. Aamir was on point as always and I loved his character. Mr. Bachchan is a legend and he's in that stage of his career by my opinion , in which it is enough for him just to be in the movie. Fatima was a delight to watch. Someone I really liked is the girl playing young Zafira (Deshna Dugad). She's done pretty well for the small role she had and for her young age.
So , in conclusion, if you are in a mood for an entertaining action , the movie will leave you with a good feeling. Give it a try.

I really like the character of Frangi. Even though he is a trickster, as Azaad say,
Frangi is actually on a quest so independence and freedom consist of breathing for him. Is that really so? Katrinan's role as a dancer was a good decision because even if she can dance very nicely but her acting performance is not enough yet. After performance of Fatima in DANGAL, I watched her for the second time with this film and I liked her again(also very similar to katrina). And Amitabh Bachchan, living legend of India has performed well in this film with Aamir. In short, I think the film was beautiful.
I usually never miss an Aamir Khan movie but this time I did due to health issues and time constraints. But I did manage to watch this movie on DVD and I regret not watching it on big screen. Pay no heed to negative reviews as plenty of them are baseless and they have not watched the movie at all.
No, its not like Pirates at all. It may look like coz of the look and feel of the set. But thats the only similarity. I had mixed feelings bcoz of so many negative reviews when I started to watch the movie and just 5 minutes into the movie, I was in complete awe of it. Without giving much on the lines of story and screenplay, I would like to end here by giving this masterpiece an 8 out of 10 for such a visual treat.

The movie has attracted extreme reviews because of emotions and expectations.
The movie delivers mildly on action, drama and suspense with plot twists you won't see coming.
If you compare this movie with pirates of Caribbean series, you will be dissappointed.
Enjoy it like any other average Bollywood movie.
Just got through watching it, been waiting avidly for a copy of it, and well worth the wait I thought. Yes it is a bit POTC-ish, but it was still swashbuckling fun in its own way. They seemed to end it as though they may make a sequel, I hope they do, because I really enjoyed this.
