I wish I had someone to give me the advise that I am stating here. Would have saved me some money and time.

Its without doubt that Bhai-ism is somethat that you cant miss. But when Bhai goes on a ride the likes of which we have seen so many times it is painstakingly annoying to sit throught it again.

Salman Khan really needs to pivot from the kind of cinema he can do. I actually believe that he can act ( at times). Problem again though is not the acting but the screenplay, the writing is pathetic, even when you have such an excellent source.

Go watch something else. You will have a better time than watching this movie.

I really didnt like this movie for two reasons :

1. I wish there was more to this movie, the characters so engaging, the scenes so well shot, the small universe it creates, which is the reality many people live in, it is done so well. The dialogues if not poetic, were so surreal. They said so little and said all, the actors were brilliant and I look forward to seeing more of their work. Geetika Vidya Ohlyan is a force to be reckoned with, in the movie the character is the same.

Saying all that at the credits, i was like that's it? I need to know more about these characters and what happened to them. We have been so used to movies that have a beginning and an end that one a movie like Soni comes, you react the way I react.

2. The way it left me feeling at the end - which is something is very hard for me to describe.

The move holds a mirror to our faces and lets you decide what you want to do with what you saw.

Highly recommended. The Indian Cinemas that needs to be seen.

There have been very few instance at the cinemas where the movie completely absorbs you.

This is one such movie. I am writing this review after watching the movie for the 3rd time. My appreciation for the movie has just increased more and more.

The direction, the acting, the screenplay, everything on point. The music score and bloody hell the hero of the movie was the cinematography. There were few shots in the movie which left you awestruck. Especially the first instance we see the alien ship, the shot of the Chinook, with the ship, the fog/cloud flowing down the mountains. It was spectacular.

A well rounded cast; Amy Adams was brilliant in her portrayal of a linguist. Also they got the science right; or the hypothesized science right for this movie.

Overall a wonderful experience. Must watch.
