This movie is a lot of fun! It is about not judging on first impressions, and it does it with flair and style. The music and dancing are creative, colorful, and expressive. I have shown some of the dancing and singing to my 6th grade students, and they loved it! The market dance scene does have a moment of objectionable content, and the beach song and dance are very sexual (that, and the one or two forced acting scenes took it down from a 5/5 rating). Other than that, it is as good as Grease. My wife and I love this movie, and it is very well done. The plot twists and turns and keeps you guessing throughout the movie. The dialogue is truly true to form; if you have ever spent time overseas and had miscommunications cause hard feelings, you will connect with this movie. If you have ever seen someone talking one way but behaving another and so judged them for it, yet finally realizing that you are doing the same wrong principal, you will connect with this. The scenery is pretty, the actors/actresses are handsome/beautiful, and there are plenty of jokes throughout. The jokes are funny, the characters are full of character, and the singing and dancing are really catchy. For a Bollywood/Hollywood mixture, it is a home-run! It ends well and with a good moral. I highly recommend this movie.Read full review
This movie is the Bollywood cherry on top for Jane Austen fans! You must be in the mood for silly fun and somewhat cheesy songs though. It is wonderfully well done as it brings you the story we all love with music that makes you want to really get up and dance along. This movie is becoming hard to find, take advantage to see it/buy it Jane Austen meshes with Bollywood appeals to you!

This is one of the most entertaining movies I've seen in a long time, blending Indian, British, and American cultures in a grand rom-com musical format. It also is one of the best modern interpretations of Jane Austen's story ever.

I believe this is the first time such a film has been made, and it exceeds all my hopes and dreams of what a film of this caliber should be like. It's a glorious meshing of East (India) and West (America) done rather faithfully to the story of Jane Austin's Pride and Prejudice. It's modernalized but throughly enjoyable. All the music is marvelous and the costumes will take your breath away. My favorite Bollywood actress, Aishiwara Rai, SHINES so wonderfully in her role. (**** out of ****)
I absolutely loved this movie. It's a spin off of Jane Austin's "Pride and Prejudice." It is full of culture, singing, dancing, it's also VERY funny; something the whole family will love. The actors play their roles amazingly well, and there are some unexpected changes made to fit the characters and the story. Gurinder Chadha, the director, does a fantastic job of weaving a classic tale into a loveable modern fairytale.
