I really like the character of Frangi. Even though he is a trickster, as Azaad say,
Frangi is actually on a quest so independence and freedom consist of breathing for him. Is that really so? Katrinan's role as a dancer was a good decision because even if she can dance very nicely but her acting performance is not enough yet. After performance of Fatima in DANGAL, I watched her for the second time with this film and I liked her again(also very similar to katrina). And Amitabh Bachchan, living legend of India has performed well in this film with Aamir. In short, I think the film was beautiful.
Aamir Khan's acting is all that's worth watching this film. This film could have been ended just in 1 and half hour, but the directors extended the film I think just for audience. CGI was a bit low over all, Amitabh was not suitable for the role he played. Katrina Should learn how to deliver dialogue. Fatima can become a good acting sensation just not yet. Her role in Dangal and then watching her like this is not helping just yet.
I usually never miss an Aamir Khan movie but this time I did due to health issues and time constraints. But I did manage to watch this movie on DVD and I regret not watching it on big screen. Pay no heed to negative reviews as plenty of them are baseless and they have not watched the movie at all.
No, its not like Pirates at all. It may look like coz of the look and feel of the set. But thats the only similarity. I had mixed feelings bcoz of so many negative reviews when I started to watch the movie and just 5 minutes into the movie, I was in complete awe of it. Without giving much on the lines of story and screenplay, I would like to end here by giving this masterpiece an 8 out of 10 for such a visual treat.

Indian audience have never been kind to an ambitious period drama ever since Mughal e Azam. TOH could have been way better but considering it was made to lure the masses, it did not lack the content as advertised by many negative views.
This project had great detail to production design and background score was gripping. Fatima could have done better and dialogues could have been more impactful. Even with these shortfalls the movie is worth a decent watch and should not have been penned so horribly.
The movie was highly entertaining to me despite all the bad reviews I had read before watching it.
Sure enough it is not Vishal Bardwaj's Maqbool or Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Black and I didn't watch it with that expectation. It is an entertaining family movie with a nice plot and a lot of action. Aamir was on point as always and I loved his character. Mr. Bachchan is a legend and he's in that stage of his career by my opinion , in which it is enough for him just to be in the movie. Fatima was a delight to watch. Someone I really liked is the girl playing young Zafira (Deshna Dugad). She's done pretty well for the small role she had and for her young age.
So , in conclusion, if you are in a mood for an entertaining action , the movie will leave you with a good feeling. Give it a try.
