PK (2015)

Comedy 8/10

Like all Aamir Khan movies, this one is socially charge and full of meaning while still being cute, funny, and full of the feels.  In this story it takes an alien, with all sincerity and taking things literal to question why so much crap happens in the name of religion.  His earnest, sincere heart teaching everyone a lesson in love and the nature of God.

Ghajini (2008)

 
So, so, so, so, so good.  I watched this with my little sister, who isn't into psychological thrillers and intense actions films, and even she liked it.  She liked the happy parts way more than the intense parts, but she couldn't help but keep watching.  Aamir Khan is that amazing. 

3 Idiots (2009)

All I can say is that Aamir Khan does it again.  This movie is fabulous.  It's meaningful, dramatic, lovely, hilarious, and delightful.

Lagaan (2001)

I don't know why it took so long for me to watch this... no wait, I do.  It was a matter of availability.  At the time I couldn't seem to find it anywhere, but I kept hearing how wonderful it was, so I ended up just buying it for myself.  Then my friend (not the Disney Channel one, but one who actually appreciates good movies) wanted to watch it with me so I kept waiting for her, until I got fed up waiting and just watched it for myself.

Taare Zameen Par (2007)

Aamir Khan is back in my life with another film with a message.  Taare Zameen Par is about a dyslexic boy (Darsheel Safary) who is having difficulty with school and is generally misunderstood by everyone, especially his parents who don't want the same of a "special needs" type situation. 

Fanaa (2006)

So following my friend's advice I looked for more Aamir Khan films as I approached the world of Bollywood. Fanaa was probably not the best choice for an armature such as I. Like most Aamir Khan films, Fanaa has an agenda and political message. It actually caused a lot of controversy when it first was released, as the main plot of the film has to do with terrorism and regional conflicts and prejudice.

Dil Chahta Hai (2001)

This is the story of three friends as they grow up, grow apart, fall in love, and reconcile as they grow together again, now more mature.
