Have you made your Post-Hrithik Resolution yet...?

Krrish Movie Rating: 3.5 out of 5
Was it the start of a new year... or just an end to a Hrithik Roshan movie...? It's hard to tell sometimes as the atmosphere was full of people taking vows to losing weight or simply just getting in better shape. It simply seemed as if a feeling of awe was omnipresent among the theater crowd ever since Hrithikh literally jumped on the screen...
Anyhow, lets get back to the movie. As expected, this is not just a movie about a super-hero, but about a young man using everything at his disposal to conquer love, happiness, family and respect. Since this was a Bollywood flick, you can also expect it to try and appease many genres in one-go, which in this case are comedy, action, family values, and love. But the only genre that seemed extraordinary in this movie would be the action this movie had to offer. Now granted, you can't compare the stunts in this film to the up-coming Superman movie, due to the great disparitybetween the two film-budgets, but keeping in mind the budget of this film, I think they did quite well. I was especially pleased with the innovation that comprised the plot in this movie... everything from the action sequences to the story-line itself had a very new approach to it and it was welcoming.
All-in-all, this is a great movie for kids/family, and a good overall story. However, it won't quench the thirst you may have for action if you expect it to be only a movie about a super-hero.
