Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

The fullest spectrum of emotion I have ever felt watching a film. It is a tribute to humanity's cruelty and capacity to love unconditionally. The vivid cinematography is a cinematic gem, diversity and culture are celebrated and cherished in many forms. A must see for all ages! Be sure you have a box of tissues close, someone to snuggle with, and someone to rave to once you've finished the film. A masterpiece.

Watched the movie after 6 years of its release on the occasion of a late night movie time,although I am a fan and know all the potential of Khan's acting as I saw his best performances-pardes,anjaam,billu,chak de India,fan ,don-2 baazigar and anjaam. But also his worst performances like HNY,Dilwale and probably badshaah but this was out of my expectation.Shahrukh can act to such a level was a treat,there was a moment I actually controlling myself tearing eyes when he gave a speech for his kid which died because of his last name-KHAN,in the church on the occasion of martyr's memorial,that was outstanding,the moment he saves his mamma jenny in flooded America's town where she along with his kid and community members stay was joyous and believe me as PAUL COELHO(THE Oscar WINNING WRITER) said "khan could win an Oscar for the movie",the movie was worth it.It will lit you ask questions-whether the Muslim community to be blamed for 9/11 or the evil soul?Movie is full of performances but It has a good message too!!

I felt from long time bollywood's innocence is missing. here you have the answer, MY NAME IS KHAN...Starting with an impressive note, Shah Rukh khan won you over and over from the initial scene. Then flash back to his childhood, directly grabbed your attention, because it's so deviate from Karan johar style. The scenes rocked, impressive. Then start the romance angle which come across as a very mature romance still with sweetness and innocence. What we can expect when SRK-KAJOL are together, it lights you up.. Shah Rukh khan doesn't directly look at Kajol, OR DIDN'T TAKE her hand and staring at her like he did in KKHH or K3G or DDLJ, which led him to be the greatest super star across the globe and won billion hearts, specially of ladies, but he was able to win them more and more with his unique romantic style. Rizwan own you, again and again and more and more.SRK is playing Rizwan WITH such ease and shows what a great actor he is...The Indian treasure who is gifted with super charming personality+ skills, it shows why he was treated as the global known actor and why people are such close to him. The most important part is, people feel Rizwan's pain as theirs. SRK scored a century with that, cause the pain, the expression, the sadness which he give without a tear, he puts his heart out and absolutely giving the best acting in his career.I always believed, karan is not taking a full advantage of the capability of SRK's skills, because in I thought he is too emotional and don't guide SRK's takes when he doesn't give the best shot.But here he proves you wrong. SRK is in a such a balanced act and I believe that's the greatest act by a main stream actor in cinema, at least one of the....kajol, surely charming lady and she proved who she is..such a shame for bikini wear heroine wannabes who is just there to fill the screen and show skin. Bollywood is really missing her, she stood up with every scene and gives the ease performance.after the intermission, I felt I am watching the greatest movie of my life time. The first half is full with emotional, heart is at right place and I believe it's flawless.Everything is perfect, just brilliant, outstanding. bit let down comes in the second part with few over the top scenes, but lead pair fill it up,but i wish it could have been 15 minute less.camera, music is awesome and screen play is great, but wish it was more tight in second half.All other supporting actors are doing an awesome job, actually the lady who played Rizwan's wife was great.favorite scenes. 1. church one- the power of srk's acti9ng WOW 2. Intercourse for Dumbo's..LMAOO all laughed like crazy and "can I have sex" 3. Introduction scene 4. all SRK-kajol SCENES. 5.the funeral of Rizwan's mother 6.the way Rizwan's mother taught him to identify the good/bad people..What catchy was, there are many entertainment parts were there which I didn't expect. The awesome film which could have been much better in the second half, i surely hope they will edit it when it goes for non bollywood audience in MAY.I will go again and again, and I watched it with Nadee yesterday. Thank you NADEE for great help in ticket bookings, otherwise it will be difficult for me to watch it on first day, if not you help me.The film scores big time because it's heart is at the right place. perfect first half and good second half and OUTSTANDING Performance, SRK and kjo and kajol have a big winner. It may be less funny and mass oriented than OSO, but I hope it will get it's due in BO big way.Finally , I would like to tell, western world may have BC and AD for define world, eastern world have another definitions..but when it comes to Rizwan's act of SRK, HE SHOWED the definitions of him are not enough to define the skills of this actor. you go SRK, you rock..MNIK, watch it. The lead pair's performance and perfect first half was enough to give it 10 on 10.My favorite till was swades, I think now it's MNIK. But may be changed later, cause I already watched SWADES like 25 times and more I watch it, more I loved, hopefully MNIK will be same for me when I repeatedly watch it.
