We have seen a lot of underdog sports movies over the years which have been inspirational, cinematic and realistic. Chak de India follows the realistic genre….. the film is very predictable in most parts but what makes the film memorable is the performance of the actors, screenplay, direction and also the background score…

It’s a patriotic movie which depicts the story of women’s hockey in India, the difficulty faced by the coach in uniting a diverse team and finally make them successful. SRK pulls of a fantastic performance without his signature songs and dance.


He has silenced all his critics with this performance. amin deserves a perfect 10 for direction which makes him the director to look out in the future. bgm is great throughout the movie, finally all those young girls deserve a standing ovation for their respective roles(most of them are debutante’s) My verdict: a must watch…best of 2007.

I have seen this movie easily a half a dozen times, and I find that the beauty of the film is how Forrest Gump not only shares his innocence and purity with others, including the audience, he also manages to retain that innocence and purity through some very difficult times.
As a Viet Nam
veteran, and a college graduate of the late Sixties, I could of course personally relate to the various periods that Forrest Gump endures. I would only mention that the skillful and seamless blending of music, action, and period costume was enthralling.
And yet it was so perfectly understated that Forrest Gump’s travels through thirty five years of the stormiest and most meaningful years of American history only became clearly defined for the viewer. Even more so than the well known chocolates quote as a metaphor for life, I felt that the remark that stupid is what you do is probably more workable for most of us.
