This movie fails on so many levels.Looks like all bollywood can make these days is how to break marriages and make people cheat on their partners.I would suggest you to grab a beer with that money or spend some good time with your family or dog.They would certainly love your company instead of wasting time on this heartless,soulless movie.

Imitaiz Ali is a director who has given some fresh breath of air to his love stories and some are excellent like Jab We Met, Love Aajkal and Rockstar. But lately he is also in a syndrome of serving the same old trash with an altered packaging. Jab Hary Met Sejal is a complete disaster coming after Tamasha. Tamasha still was better in the content.
Jab Hary Met Sejal biggest drawback is that it does not have any story but just bits and pieces of certain instants fused together. Scenes of Jab We Met, Tamsaha and Love Aajkal amalgamated together as moments. The plot is wafer thin that it will leave you speculating. This is the story , Hary is a tourist guide and is verge on completion and departing one of his tour. At this instance one of the tour member Sejal a Gujrati girl insist Hary to help her find her lost engagement ring that she misplaced during the tour. Almost 90% of the movie revolve around Hary and Sejal looking for the ring around the picturesque location of Europe encountering with some misdemeanors.
This movie is so boring that even 20 minutes in the movie you feel its ages. Shahrukh Khan and Anushka are the only two who carry the entire burden on their shoulders. Shahrukh Khan looks jaded as he has played such characters for so long. I have lost count of roles when his charming personality is wooing a girl who could be single, engaged or married but ultimately falls for him. Awkwardly Shahrukh's charm does not work in this movie and he is exasperating at times.
Shahrukh needs to do something different as he is no more conclusive playing roles which he was doing 20 years ago. Anushka looks pretty and her acting is passable. She also gets on your nerves after a while with her unimpressive Gujrati accent.
Direction and screenplay do not have much to do as there is no story in the movie. Superfluous songs also add to anguish. I feel this one of the most wretched movies by Imtiaz Ali. Please skip this movie and let the producers and directors know you cannot just serve us crap. Highly avoidable.

The most disappointing movie ever I saw in my entire life. The movie felt so pointless that people started leaving the movie half way through from the theater. Even though the acting was good by the lead pair there was no script basically. The dialogues and story-line were a cliché. It had few moments in the first half where you might be entertained but the second half was unbearable. I seriously feel so bad that I want a refund. I don't understand some people who are talking good about the movie. How can someone like this boring movie it's unimaginable.
All in all it was a dud ! And the worst movie of SRK till date. How can a man(Imtiaz) who made a classic like ROCKSTAR come up with such a stupid and pointless movie?? I don't get it !
Until I watched this movie I was an SRK fan but I started doubting myself about that. He surely is proving time and again that he has a very poor choice of scripts. Why does such a good actor who can act so well make such silly movies and commercial movies.

First half of the movie is funny and entertaining. After the intermission the movie gets a little bit boring and long- lasting. SRK and Anushka's acting and chemistry is awesome! The King of Romance is back❤!
I rate the movie a 7.

While most of the people have adopted a practical lifestyle and approach, some, may be a tiny minority of people still believe in love. Thank you Imtiaz Ali, Shahrukh Khan and Anushka Sharma for keeping their hopes alive. It's a simple movie about love, just the old school love. Sad that we've come so far that the idea of two people falling in love and having a clichéd happy ending is boring. Imtiaz is not at his best in the movie, I agree and it could have had a shorter second half, but for most part of the movie, I had a stupid smile on my face because it felt good. I love the movie where I feel good and happy because people hardly make them anymore. I loved the acts and whoever said that SRK should stop doing such movies can go to hell coz he was terrific in his role. I loved many dialogues and messages in the movie. My favorite would be 'Express yourself because that's what's your role. What the other person thinks about it is their job. You have to do yours and they will do theirs.' and that 'if something is gone from your life, it is not necessary that you have to forget it. It's not necessarily bad if it's gone and even if it hurts you because for that period, you were actually happy, may be the happiest you have ever felt.' PS, if we can keep watching the same superheroes defeating the same super villains who are keen to destroy the world again and again, if we can watch some robots fight each other every two years, if we don't mind the same overdone visual effects layered on top of every movie, we certainly don't mind watching you recreate the same theme in your movies.

Oh I am not sure people agree with me or not. But I think this is the appropriate and most lovable complement for the movie which came first to my mind after watching this movie.
Jab Harry Met Sejal, of course, revolves around Harry and Sejal as they embark on the journey of their life. Sejal is engaged and Harry is not really looking for love. However, when Sejal comes around asking for his help to get back her engagement ring that she seems to have lost on her last tour to Europe, sparks fly.
Although reluctant and not hoping to find love, the two develop a deep bond while on their hunt for the ring. Will Sejal change her mind and embrace the promise of happy life? or will she stick to her promise and go ahead and marry her fiancé.
Jab Harry Met Sejal comes with beautiful sights from Europe. A simple story at the core, Imtiaz Ali and the two lead stars make this tale an exciting and engaging romantic movie.

When we go for movies, we expect to have fun but not like this ! To make a movie, plot and story has to be good.. there is nothing here ! The whole movie around a ring which doesn't make sense.. Again they didn't detail any character .. and so many songs for nothing..
They just spent a long of money for a really bad movie and story. What might have saved the movie is the real class acting of shahrukh..
Imitiaz Ali : what's gone wrong ? Hell yeah, we expect something great from you !

Shahrukh khan's romantic acting are so predictable . Anushka sharma plays a foolish Gujrati Girl, Reminds of "hansa bhabhi" from khichdi.. Less funny more irritating . Searching for a ring ,, Ahh.. if they want to search for ring , it would have found in the very beginning of the movie. But these idiots have waste their own money in euro tour ,and our money in buying tkts for it.. And I**B, frm when u too have started giving paid reviews . 9/10 Bullshit

This review doesn't contain anything related to the movie, it's for some people who say that SRK is romancing heroines half his age. Does age really matter? These are the same people who watch movies like sultan,P.K,prem ratan dhan payo, with excitement. Even the other two khans also have paired heroines half their age. If you want to see a movie, see it as a movie, not as a reality. its reel and not real.

I found the beginning to be funny, Anushka Sharma is amazing in the movie but it is cringeworthy to see her romancing Shahrukh Khan, I just did not see them as a couple in this movie, post interval you can barely tolerate it, there is unnecessary drama, a movie that could have easily ended in 90 minutes is dragged and dragged.

This Imtiaz Ali film is a redefining Bollywood romantic-comedy flick, that ensures a good romantic movie doesn't always need an over-dramatic climax.The first half of the film makes you smile, laugh out loud, and fall in love with the protagonists: Anushka Sharma and Shah Rukh Khan.
However it's the second half which goes little missing - blame it to the unwanted songs, or to the lack of supporting characters in the story line, even the over-stretched travel; the initial minutes in the second half misses the tempo, which was once being set high in the first half.
But it's Harry-Sejal chemistry,that helps you to ignore those loopholes and guarantees a fun and emotional ride of 2 hrs and 20 minutes.
Go,watch it! Rarely you find such romedy in Bollywood cinemas. You gonna come out from the theater with a smile.

Worst Farook Khan movie I ever watched. This movie is so bad that I had to login to my IMDb account and review it. The story line is not just weak its dead weak. Unrealistic situations in movie don't make any sense. The only thing this movie will do better is they will let you know the different countries and different restaurants in Europe.

A deep, personal conflict, hidden away under layers of daily life, stifled by the relentless passage of time, ensconced in loneliness; fate leading to a chance meeting with another soul who offers a glimpse and glimmer of escape; and a physical journey that leads to finding oneself within; this is the essence of every Imtiaz Ali film to date. The reason Why Jab Harry Met Sejal is already being called his weakest film yet, is that despite hanging on to these same tropes, it is still a film that departs from the paths that Ali usually treads on his journeys and a journey on an untested path isn't everyone's cup of tea.
But it is in this departure that JHMS stands apart from his previous work, and there is so much in the film that belies the somewhat hasty dismissal of JHMS as Imtiaz Ali's weakest film so far.
Is the protagonist SRK's boisterous, homesick Punjabi tour guide, shackled by the guilt of leaving his home in Punjab for greener pastures, in the dead of the night without a semblance of an explanation? Or is it Anushka Sharma's entitled, obnoxious Gujarati bride-to-be, ostensibly looking for her lost engagement ring, but subconsciously looking for an escape from a married life that, in a conventional rich Gujarati setup, would ensure she's no longer bound by her own moral compass, but by that of the entrenched, seemingly- unshakeable patriarchy?
You'd think that as the ranking star of the enterprise,the film would be about SRK's Harry. Indeed, Rockstar and Tamasha are so completely about Jordan and Ved respectively, that you came away reeling from discovering what those characters went through
But Harry already knows what's haunting him. He knows that he misses Punjab, its blooming fields, and its songs louder than tractors. All he has to do is go back home, to begin his journey to redemption. It is Sejal who undergoes the more significant change as she makes tough choices, but because the film has the two of them sharing the screen for most of the runtime, you never quite see the obvious.
And how those two share the screen! SRK does much of what made him the star he is, but also manages to flesh out the foul-mouthed Punjabi to great effect. Anushka Sharma turns in a career-best performance, doing most of the heavy- lifting in the acting department, letting SRK coast along on sheer charm and superstardom. For the record, Anushka's Gujarati accent isn't perfect, and hardly consistent through her dialogue. But she manages to make it a delightful character quirk, and it never jars.
Most interestingly, though, unlike how Imtiaz Ali usually travels back and forth in the lives of the characters to reveal the source of their loneliness, in this film, we discover the characters almost in real- time. We get to see little of why they are how they are, and more of how they react to situations, which gives us only a clue of the character backstory.
In that sense, even among Imtiaz Ali's filmography, this one is more about an actual journey than anything yet. It's more situational, less poetic; more frothy, less esoteric. In many ways, Jab Harry Met Sejal is Imtiaz Ali-lite, propelled mostly by the unfortunate truth that if you have Shah Rukh Khan in your film, it will invariably have to be moulded for a shallower, wider audience.
This also means that you get a more sexist and regressive male character than Imtiaz Ali usually gives us. He treats women as objects for sex, but when he sees one he begins to fall for, he decides she's not the kind who one should fool around with, but looked at from afar. Of course, Harry evolves through the film, but the net result still remains that this is a less gender- sensitive film than Imtiaz Ali's previous work.
But make no mistake: the pain, the quest for solace, the gorgeous little moments that make journeys so much more important than destinations, they're all there. One particular scene has Shah Rukh expressing a range of emotions in a single take; from a frenzied, teary panic attack to cheering up and appreciating the glory of the morning, traversing this emotional journey with a barrage of Punjabi, ostensibly telling himself what his mom told him to calm him when he was a child. It seems like a scene designed for a hyperactive performer like SRK, and he nails it.
Anushka, on the other hand, manages to make you root for her throughout, because there's something about a character that refuses to mince words. She, and SRK's reactions to her, are the constant source of humour in the film, and this film has more of it than any of Ali's recent work. Perhaps that's another reason why JHMS comes across as more flimsy and lightweight than what we've come to expect from Imtiaz Ali.
Despite its seeming lack of depth and the most obvious conflict resolution you could possible imagine, JHMS has much in it to appreciate and love. Everything that makes an Imtiaz Ali film the experience it usually is, is present in JHMS, crafted and designed in a way that makes it more commercial and less-demanding of the viewer. His previous films show you empathy, while Jab Harry Met Sejal gives you a chance to be empathetic.
This film will not have the same kind of cult fandom that some of his other films have gained over the years, but Jab Harry Met Sejal is likely to age better than you'd expect it to, as you discover the little deft touches of Imtiaz's emotional and cinematic intelligence. Sejal and Harry eventually meet halfway, and the story of how they do can probably be experienced as a fan of Imtiaz Ali, if you meet him halfway as well

Well am not someone who can criticize "Sharukh" as I use to be his admirer, am still but recently I saw him frustrated in an interview,
he said: Is it my fault that producers are casting heroines half of my age? Do I choose the cast of the movie? basically he was furious over people commenting on "Dear Zindagi"
Anyways I suppose he is at a stature where he can "Choose" what he does (am sure he is rich enough not to work just for money) and I am pretty sure 99.9% people will agree with me. And if he continue to choose movies like "Jab Harry Met Sejal" he will gradually shatter his good image.
He cannot just get away with statements like "is it my fault?" LOLz ... then who's fault it is? mine that i went to watch "Jab Harry met Sejal" :)
