Armaan is really a good movie. Each minute of the movie is worth watching. I pity Ms Gumaste's choice if she felt that the movie is not worth watching. Did she really watch the movie before writing the review ???????
But reading it's reviews by so called film critics will take a sensible viewer no time to understand how they make mockery of their profession. Watch the movie and you'll come to know what I mean.
A general feeling expressed by these reviewers is that there should have been more of Amitabh in the movie. Somebody please explain these critics that a strong character like Amitabh's in Armaan is not meant to be measured by reels but by its characterization, depth, portrayal, and the impact it leaves. And Dr. Siddharth Sinha (Amitabh Bachchan) excels by each of these criteria. It's been ages since we saw Amitabh in a role so powerful, real, and close to heart.
Another criticism is that the story is too simple. I'll say please read it as 'real'. No roller coaster rides, no devious villains, no larger than life saviors, no voluptuous actresses. It is a story of normal people facing life's normal, and some not so normal circumstances with strengths and weaknesses of normal magnitude. It's the beauty of simplicity that makes this movie so extra-ordinary. How often do you get to see a movie so simple and simply remarkable?
So it's not Armaan that is way off the mark but these review

I am really surprised to read your review of Armaan especially after watching the film. Its a FANTASTIC film. Henceforth I request you to please keep your eyes and ears open while watching the movie from reviewer point of view.
deepak is way off the mark and not armaan.just bcos the promos tell u the whole story the movie neednt be a bad one.its high time u stopped airing such stupid comments.u should hang ur boots....
Armaan is a very very light movie directed with brlliance of simplicity handling a complex situation. All the characters have done extremely well. Deepa, either you should stop reviewing Films, or Rediff should stop publishing your senseless/brainless reviews; or we shall stop reading both Deepa & Rediff Fil review.
i have been goining through several reviews for the last one week.what i deceided that i am not going to see this movie.but fortunately somehow i got to watch the movie yesterday...iti is a bloody good movie...after a long long time i have seen such a explosive performance....hats off to pretty zinta...such a simple story but raw human emotions are potrayed in excellent manner..thanks honey for presenting us with such a good film..
i dont know all u reviewers rate any film.now a film is bad or off the mark just because its promos told u about the story.if this is ur way then i suspect that u r off the mark.today anyone can guess story of the just by its promos.honestly today bollywood films doesnt have a great storyline.what we see in todays films?which film today have great storyline.talk about srk,s films or anyone.armaan,s story was somewhat different.u cant expect every film to be a thriller.every actor and actress performed well.either it was amitabh or it was gracy.dont complain about amitabh's role,it was his guest in this film.its his greatness taht he stole all praises why didnt mr reviewer saw film's treatment.why the screenplay,the direction ,dialouges were noticed. today problems of our viewers is that they dont understand a good ,different film.we indians r just sick of seening same type of action or srk style film.
