Amal

Such a different film , such charismatic lead and intruiging atory but everything was ruined with that ending.

Neither the good thing happened Nor the old man's wish was fulfilled

Why did you, how could you allow stupid fools who behave and act like genius to convince the director to settle for this ending? And if it was you than my dear friend something like this makes a otherwise unforgettable movie seem ordinary and just another dull tale in already dull lives we all live as a a mojority on the planet.

Who ever is responsible- in the words and curse of the old man - YOU WILL GO OUT OF BUSINESS BUDDY- out of film making !

I really liked this film too. Story was just so good, it leaves you saying, "But, wait...!" Rupinder Nagra was great. Very understated. And I liked the young girl in it as well. It has some really funny moments, too, but it doesn't try too hard and push for the laughs, they are just right. No wonder it was in the TOP 10 FILMS of 2007. I agree with that distinction. Apparently it made quite a splash at TIFF '07, although I missed it there, and am kicking myself. We should all be supporting Canadian movies like this to continue being made. Its being released in major cities this weekend on August 8th, like Toronto and Vancouver where they can count on me to be watching it.

A simple but solid story on the character. A great story with thought provoking message. A person who don't take tips of Rs 3/-, what will happen and how does he spends 300 million gift by an unknown person.

I saw AMAL at the Toronto International Film Festival and was blown away.

Amazing.

What an incredible venture by the cast and crew - kudos to all of them.

The film is filled with beauty and depth and everything that we take for granted.

It's hard to imagine how difficult it was to finish when the product is so polished, so complete.

Everyone I know who saw the film loved it - we're so proud of Richie and the rest of the crew/cast for accomplishing such a feat.

"Amal" is a Drama movie in which we watch a poor auto-rickshaw driver in India who, through an unexpected encounter, finds himself in the middle of a life-altering situation.

I found this movie very interesting, emotional and powerful in some moments. Despite that its plot was simple it presented and combined dramatic moments with some powerful changes that occur in Amal's life. The interpretation of Rupinder Nagra who played as Amal was amazing. The supporting characters, though meaningful, could have been more fleshed out to deepen the emotional impact, something that could add a deeper meaning in the movie. Furthermore, this movie might seem predictable in some moments but it will surprise you. Finally, I have to say that "Amal" is an emotional drama movie with a simple but powerful story from which everybody can learn something thus, I highly recommend everyone to watch it.
