The film deftly pokes fun at the foibles of earthlings — especially their warring religions — with warmth and compassion, and shines a light on the contradictions of India’s strict but unwritten social rules. Read full review

A biting, whip-smart satire on the thorny subject of organized religion, the Bollywood musical "PK" enlightens and provokes through outrageous slapstick. Read full review

The most unique thing about PK was that it did something no other movies made in India has ever done, we get a lot of political thrillers, excessive amounts on love/Romance films and comedy but rarely do we get a film (in India cinema) that blatantly makes fun of religions. The fact that theThe most unique thing about PK was that it did something no other movies made in India has ever done, we get a lot of political thrillers, excessive amounts on love/Romance films and comedy but rarely do we get a film (in India cinema) that blatantly makes fun of religions. The fact that the main lead was supposedly an "Alien" makes it even better even though there were some issues regarding this when the film came out . Aamir Khan rarely makes movies but when he does, its best not to miss it, he is one of the finer actors in India and this movie deserves a 10/10 from me for trying to do the unthinkable..A great movie that has to be seen atleast once and superb acting by Aamir Khan..… Expand
