Devdas (2008) Movie review

Devdas
Retell: This film is about two childhood friends. In the begginging it tells us the story of Parvati(Aishyariah rai) and Devdas( Shahrukh Khan). They were childhood friends who spent all their time together. Until he had to move overseas and they got seperated.
She lit a lamp for him and awaited his return.She never let the lamp's fire die. 10 years past, and Devdas finally came back.
They meet and love blossems yet again, and they cannot forget each other or their childhood.
Like every other bollywood movie, they cannot be.
After a whole lot of drama. Parvati ( Ash) marries someone else.
Shahrukh promises and swears on her that he will visit her doorstep before he dies.
The ending of the movie is how he reaches there, and dies on her doorstep.
Actors and roles:
Shahrukh Khan/Devdas: I think they picked the right person to play Devdas. Shahrukh is very good at expressing many emotions, sadness being one of them. This being an emotional romance movie, his acting skills fit the mould. I think he did wonderful, and nobody could of done better. Be it Salman Khan, Shahid Kapoor, ect ect.
His acting skills, looks and everything make this movie the wonderful film it is!
Aishwariya Rai/ Parvati : She's pretty and her acting was WONDERFUL in this one.
Same as Shahrukh when it got emotional it got EMOTIONAL!
I don't usually like her, and before this movie just hated her a person..
After watching this, I've grown to love her!
She fits in wonderful with her role!

Overall thought on the actors: I never though of Ash and Shahrukh as a possible couple before watching Devdas. They look wonderful together and I don't think anybody else would of done the movie better.
Total acting points : 5/5

Story line:
The story was wonderful! For the first time ever I did not feel bored. Not even once!
There was eather, drama, comedy and romance going on at ALL times. Never any useless stuff.
I don't know what else to say about it, just that I found it WONDERFUL.
Beats romeo and Julliet anyday man.
Total story points: 5/5

Over all comments:
Over all the acting, story and outcome of the movie was good. That's probably the reason it was a hit in the box office. How the two characters fit together almost made me feel like they truly were in love! Like this was real!
The actor was phenominal and I loved it!
Would like to see more films with Ash and Shahrukh together. If I was Abishek, I'd be pretty jealous ;)
Over all movie points:5/5
