Very good movie with low quality picture on the DVD March 5, 2010 Edmond Letourneau (Canada) The DVD is an Eros product and like many others before me, I found the image quality to be very poor. Otherwise, the movie is excellent. It is a must to have on the same movie Aishwarya Rai and Madhuri Dixit. These women are not only very beautiful, but are also top actress and top dancer. It's a shame that we can't get this movie from a studio more concern about the video quality of its products.
An epic sensual overload February 2, 2010 M. Vacek (Brooklyn, NY) This was one of the biggest blockbusters in India of all time. It is also immensely popular outside of India.
Apparently the plotline is based on an old Bengali tale. There is even an earlier, lower-budget version in Bengali, but this giant Bollywood production is in Hindi.
This is a lush period piece set in the early 20th century. The cinematography and set design is unbelievably gorgeous. The songs, sung in the style of the time, are mesmerizing. And my girl, Madhuri Dixit, the worlds' greatest dancer, steals the show. And Shahrukh Khan fans will not be disappointed by his performance. Yes, true to form, he spends half of the film in tears.
In summary, Instant Classic!
An indian classic. December 15, 2009 Victoria Wall (San Juan, Puerto Rico, USA) I really liked Devdas as an indian classic. Shahrukh Khan performance was outstanding. The production is excellent and the dialogues beautiful. The only detail is that apparently it was recorded with a special light effect I personally do not like.
What about subtitles? December 14, 2009 Stefanie (CO, USA) My question is, since Amazon did not include the answer in the descriptions, does this movie have English subtitles?
A grand picture painted on a big canvas with a palate of paint ... November 17, 2009 Lee Jilek (Nebraska) missing most of the colors. This film looks like it is deliberately shot with soft focus most of the time. Evidence is that foreground objects are usually, or sometimes, quite clear while every thing else is blurry. To make matters worse there is what looks like some kind of filter used that gives everything a yellowish golden hew while everything already seems to be that color anyway. There is almost a complete lack of color in most of this film. Perhaps this film should be decolorized to black and white. My opinion is that this kind of cinematography will not sell to consumers using the kind of home theater equipment available today.
Many of my favorite Indian actors are in this film and they really aren't given much they can work with. They do their very best, otherwise, I would give this film a 2. The mammoth sets completely overwhelm the actors and the soap opera like story. The drinking song is pretty good, I guess. I cannot believe people in India even liked this film. This is the only Indian film we have that we don't watch, at least parts of, over and over again.
