The Story
Goofy gaming expert Shekhar Subramaniam (Shah Rukh Khan) tries to win his son Prateik’s heart by making him a super hero. But his son, like most young boys, thinks super villans are cooler. So, Shekhar designs a video game that pits Ra-One, an anti-hero, against G-One, a good hero.
The movie is a clash of good against evil, and while it borrows a lot from Hollywood super hero movies, it does a fair job of making its own characters and a story that works well on several levels. It has some interesting clashes between G-One and Ra-One, it has a warm bond between the good robot and Kareena’s family, and its screenplay is full of wit, specially in the humourous scenes during dinners where the characters interact.
The film is a good, light-hearted watch with some good prasa vasool moments and a fun dance number that is a joy to watch. However, there are some slow-moving scenes and the movie can be a bit monotonous at times. Nevertheless, it is a must-watch. It has some very heart-warming moments and a great soundtrack by Chammak Challo. We hope it does well at the box office this Diwali! The only quibble is that the first half is a little boring.
