I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Durga Singh (Raakhee) has two sons, Karan (Salman Khan) and Arjun (Shah Rukh Khan) that are the joy of her life. When they are murdered, she prays to Kali to reincarnate them, and restore them too her, so that they can take vengeance on her enemy. This is both a poignant story of a mother's love and faith, and an action packed tale of revenge. The music and choreography are average, but the costumes are spectacular. The fight scenes are well staged and exciting. The supporting cast is quite good. Khan and Khan are both great in their roles, and it is fun to see the superstars act together. (Though, in my opinion, seeing them together shows that Salman Khan is a superior fighter, dancer, and actor.) It's a solid movie overall, and will please fans of either Khan.
This 1995 drama has a little of everything, thoroughly mixed together. The familiar leading man Shakrukh Kahn is paired with Salman Khan as a pair of brothers done in early in the film by the ever deliciously evil Amrish Puri, to keep them from their unsuspected inheritance. Their devastated mother, played by the long-suffering and then fiercely vindictive Rakhee, prays to the goddess Kali for the return of her sons. Temple bells sway, the camera gives a closeup of a the goddess figure, and reincarnation is underway.The plot is a garish comic book, of course, in which the bad guys strut, bluster, and can't shoot straight even with the latest smuggled machine guns. Shakrukh Khan in his new avatar as a raffish stableboy is a crack shot with a sling shot; Salman Khan is a muscled bare knuckle fighter. They are briefly pitched against one another when Shakrukh breaks into the gangster wedding where his beloved (Kajol, as cute as always but more mannerisms than acting here) is about to be pledged to the bad guy's affected son (just back from London with brilliantined hair & moustache and the catchphrase in English, "It's a joke!"). Salman Khan, his unrecognized reincarnated brother, is a hired heavy for the gangsters. . . after they have trashed the bar, each other and many of the tables, throwing one another around, cue the lightning flash and dizzying flashbacks to stop the fight. Shakrukh flees, Salman is arrested, and Kajol is still helpless in the grip of the bad guys.The Khans did much better, slicker pictures later in their careers. This one is amusing for posturing that recalls Sergio Leone's spaghetti westerns but never bothers to keep consistency of tone. Salman with his handsome and often sullen look is more convincing than Shakruh, who is alternately too boyish and too grief stricken.But the best of show is the classic bad guy, Amrish Puri, bullet headed, pop eyed and fierce, a villain epic enough to make you believe that he would assassinate his associates but then howl like an animal in the dust when vengeance touches his own family.Music and dance is familiar Bollywood; my favorite number was that one done in Kali's temple, silhouetted in the dark as the boys appear and then disappear before a baffled Amrish Puri.A trifle, but a lot of fun!
Karan Arjun was one of the best movie of its time.It was really cool.The plot was something crisp.The script was in-shape.SRK was good.Salman was average.I don't wan't talk about the lackluster acting by Kajol and Mamta.They really were a piece of junk.The songs were good enough.The music was nothing new.The directions were 'kind-of-good'.Overall, Enjoyable flick!
I saw this movie by chance one day on tv, luckily for me there were subtitles. ;) I thought it was great but most of this feeling could be put down to the fact that I've always been a sucker for this type of movie. (Ummm ... I'd say what type but this is the first time I'm commenting and am not sure if it'd count as a spoiler or not. :P)I thought Salman Khan did an excellent job as the brooding Karan and Shah Rukh Khan (Arjun) was his usual energetic self. Salman and Shah Rukh click very well on screen together and have almost what I would call 'on-screen chemistry' - in a brotherly way of course.I dont remember much of the music so I guess it wasnt particularly good, but the first song "Yeh Bandan" (I think that's what it was called) was *excellent*. The picturisation of this song was *very* sweet, very touching. Major criticisms would be ... the female leads wardrobes! (lol) And some rather fake looking special effects, lightning bolts and the like.Karan Arjun is not flashy or overdone, not over-glammed, just sincere. Its goes down as one of my all-time favourites. Over-all, a great movie.
