Mr. India

As a wise young fellow mentioned, what makes this movie so watchable today is that it has soul. Watching it after 15 years, it brings back a lot of childhood memories. The movie is just full of entertainment and does not look outdated at all. Shekar Kapur's direction is fantastic. Because of his direction, the movie moves on a constant pace and the scenes aren't overdone in a silly way. Sridevi's performance is, as always, top-notch. Anil Kapoor is very likable. The kids are good too (but annoying in the songs and dances). The songs are funny and catchy giving us Sridevi's memorable Hawa Hawai and the sensual sari dance in Kaate nahi. Of course, who could forget one of Amrish Puri's most memorable roles as Mogambo? In my humble opinion this is definitely one of the most entertaining movies that I could watch over and over again with friends or family. If you want to be entertained and have a good time, watch Mr. India.

Mr. India is a very good film by Shekhar Kapur, which is highly enjoyable and actually very interesting as a story. Yes, it is quite groundbreaking and iconic in being one of the first sc-fi films from India, but the film has an added value of kindness, comedy and sometimes wholesome, mindless fun which actually works. Kapur's direction is very good; he directs this feature with heart and even though there were some minor technical glitches, the overall product is quite good. The story of an invisible man who uses his power for a good cause works really well, and the kids are a big part of the film's charm. Anil Kapoor is an excellent lead and plays the part with gusto. It is Sridevi of course who gives the film most of its comic weight, and she's wonderful. Her imitations are fun, and even more so is her virtuoso performance in the "Hawa Hawaii" song which has her at her best - humorous, self-deprecatory, presenting a million of different, hilarious expressions. The same is true of the number "Kaate Nahi" where we see again how uninhibited and spontaneous this actress was in front of the camera. The third part of this great cast is the brilliant Amrish Puri, who steals the show with his hilarious villainous turn as Mogambo, one of his most famous memorable roles. Mr. India is a classic film worth revisiting, it holds nostalgic value and I'm sure will appeal to different audiences and not just from India.

In the fast growing world of Indian cinema, it's hard to find a good, family movie. Thankfully, Mr. India fitted and continues to fit this category with great humor, romance, and is overall the only good Indian movie I've seen. It's funny and doesn't include submissive women, hostile violence but is made for the entire family and is definitely worth watching. And, it has English subtitles =)

I am yet to see a movie which has Sci-Fi, Comedy, Romance, Music, Action, Drama and Patriotism in it. This film excels in every department. Anil Kapoor and Sridevi are great in their parts. Amrish Puri has an unforgettable role as Mogambo.

THIS ONE IS A MUST WATCH. THE BEST OF BOLLYWOOD.

This is one of the oldest and greatest films I've ever seen, I used to watch it all the time when I was younger. It is about a orphanage owner who struggles to keep it running but one day he and one of the orphans come across an invisibility mechanism which helps them fight the bad guys that are trying to shut them down. It's an all time classic, I loved this movie a lot, not just because it was one of my first but it was an all round family movie which could make me laugh and cry. I'd give it a perfect 10.0
