The Good Gora on Pyaar impossible May 13, 2010 Good Gora (Marshfield, WI USA) The movie and music complemented each other very well. I listen to the music almost every day.
Excellent Movie June 14, 2010 Kenneth J. Hakken (FL USA) I first saw this movie on Netflix. I was so impressed that I bought it on Blue Ray.
This is probably the best Romantic Musical Comedy that I have ever seen.
For the most part the film is in Hindi but there is a lot of english dialog in it.
All five music videos are fantastic. Any of them would become a top 10 hit if it had exposure. I find myself singing them in the car.
Blue Ray video and soundtrack quality is excellent.
What can I say?
This film is a sleeper.
I love this film.
Simply Outstanding June 16, 2010 Bill (NM) This is a great film on several levels.
First, unlike many recent American films one gains the distinct impression that the screenwriters knew where the story was going before they started writing. As a result the film was a consistent coherent whole that made sense and was connected throughout. While the plot was predictable in had enough extra charm and humor to make it a non-issue. Some of the "Hindified" contractions in the subtitles added to the charm.
Second, partly as as result of the first characteristic, it was very warm and entertaining without sweating bodies rolling around in random beds to distract the viewer from the fact the writers of too many modern films are totally artless. Parents won't have to hit the pause or stop button if the kids should happen to walk into the room.
The of course there are those of us who can identify with Abhay's position and plight as a rather nerdy guy, who despite acceptable or better intellect, compassion, ability and capacity to love, are possessed of "odd facial features" as an other reviewer so coldly puts it. As such a one, blessed to have amazingly won the love of a fantastic beautiful woman, I can joyfully confess that such things can happen in the real world.
A great, wholesome film!
Thai tradition! March 18, 2010 H. Bala (Carson - hey, we have an IKEA store! - CA USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've always regarded Uday Chopra as a second hand leading man, but I may have to rethink things because of this movie, and maybe Uday's being so likable in this one is due partly to his having done the writing and producing along with the acting. But there's a lot of wish fulfillment in PYAAR IMPOSSIBLE! - if you ever were a nerd or if you've ever yearned for that special someone who never even glanced at you one time. Slackers like me, we dig movies like this. Even vanity projects like this.
Pity the poor unassuming nerd. Uday Chopra plays bespectacled college loser Abhay Sharma and he's deeply smitten with the beautiful Alisha (Priyanka Chopra, no relations, thank god). But the social status quo the way it is, Abhay never stood a chance. Didn't even matter that he saved her life one evening. She just never noticed him. And then she left college.
It's seven years later now, and Abhay still pines for Alisha, but he's moved on, sort of. A computer whiz, Abhay has over the past seven years been working on a revolutionary software and he's at last perfected it. But, in the midst of pitching his product to a prospective investor, his software is stolen. A distraught Abhay tracks the thief down to Singapore, where out of the blue, on the street, he sees... well, you can guess...
PYAAR IMPOSSIBLE! ("Love Impossible") is a romantic comedy that shouldn't really work, but does. The story is contrived, the situations are formulaic, I saw every plot twist coming, and it didn't matter. I still liked this movie a lot. With not much being original nowadays, it all falls on execution and the appeal of the actors. And this film benefits from slick direction and a very likable cast. Priyanka Chopra, who was amazing in WHAT'S YOUR RAASHEE?, has become a fine comedienne and she turns in another marvelous performance, seamlessly segueing from college party girl to responsible single working mother. The precocious and very adorable little girl, Advika Yadav, makes her debut and she is a born scene-stealer. And Uday Chopra comes across as so damn nice and sweet. His Abhay Sharma quietly dreams his big romantic dreams, way out of his league, and it's really hard to hate on him. It'd be like kicking a puppy. I wish, though, that Uday had pulled out more from his repertoire of expressions than just that one persistent goofily smiling, half-dazed look.
I liked the musical numbers - "Alisha," "10 on 10," "Pyaar Impossible," "Ek Thi Ladki (bada bada boom)," and "You & Me" - pretty much all the tracks are breezy and hummable. There are some really good laughs in this one, the best being the utterly sidesplitting "Thai tradition" scene and those moments when Abhay demonstrates his questionable nanny/housekeeping skills. You've got Abhay assuming a double life and then a triple life, and he's got his work cut out for him as he tries to keep this and that identity secret from various people. There's the corporate theft sub-plot and a dash of caper intrigue as Abhay tries to get back what's his. Mostly, though, it's about the unrequited love story and the comedy. Fine with me. It's nice to find out that, once all is said and done, pyaar is not impossible after all...
Pyaar Impossible April 8, 2010 Khushi (N.J.) How can I describe 'Pyaar Impossible'? Well, I guess I would have to say it's like a warm, flat soda. This movie had all the chance to sizzle, but it just fell flat, from the performances to the music in the film. The most interesting part of this film for me was the possible story line playing in my head; wondering since Uday went yo college in California and wrote this flim, did he maybe take from his real life story?
If you have nothing else to do and you are desperate for a hindi flim then it's worth a watch other than that, it's a pass.
