I always cribbed about the special effects being used in Bollywood movies. I mean whatever they did just didn’t even came close to the special effects in the Hollywood movies. But my perception is changing now.
Recently I watched Krrish. Its a sequel to Koi… Mil Gaya. Both directed by Rakesh Roshan and starring his son Hrithik Roshan in the lead role.
I must say that this is the first Bolywood movie I have seen with special effects comparable to Hollywood movies. The effects are mastered so neatly that you do not notice any flaw in them. Ofcourse the logic behind any hero’s powers in Indian movies is usually hard to digest, but usually the movies used to lack that perfection in the special effects which makes the viewers Wow. This one doesn’t.
The only point is that you must watch it with an open mind. I do not know why people can watch Keanu Reaves, Superman, Spiderman and above all X-Men doing the same kind of things and terming them as Superheroes, and at the same time not even care to watch an effort by a Bollywood director. The problem is that they are rigid. They underestimate everyone including their own country. Why can’t Bollywood do it? I mean is it really hard to believe that given the funds, a Bollywood director capable of making such a movie can, and definitly will make it.
I must say that the movie rocks. I mean the kind of effort put in is awesome and it shows. The songs are great (kudos to Rajsh Roshan) and the special effects are mind blowing.
I recommend this movie to everyone out there.

Hey Dude,
Krish sucks, I don’t know what made people think that krrish is a superhero. This movie was for pipi kind of people. The movie was an emotional disaster nothing else. Have you seen Super Heros dance like hrithik does. It was crap. A superhero is real reserve and serious person. Watching a superhero doing thoomka and break dance is really funny so is the Krissh’s image as super hero. He just hopped throughtout the movie nothing else.
Don’t take anything personal…but it is a fact. Grow Up dude!!!

Totally agree with Deegee. Except for BETTER special effects (good attempt by a bollywood movie), movie is total Bakwaas. Actual problem is not the special effects ,technical advancement or budget but the mindset of the people who make movies. They always target the audience who can not digest movies without latka and jhatkas. Here movie makers are just business people not artist. Thats the reason TV series like ‘Star Trek’ and ‘BattleStart Gallectica’ are much better piece of work than our hindi movies.
