Summary: Powerful love story
Review: This is my first time watching a foreign film and I can tell u I CANT PRAISE IT ENOUGH! I was told about this movie from a friend ... BUT I am glad 100% he told me about it! For a girl that only had been exposed to AMERICAN MOVIES, seeing this movie I was at first skeptical and hesitant about it but I cant say enough of how powerful it is. It pulls u into the web of love between Deva (Devdas) and Paro. YOU will LAUGH and CRY!! It's such an IMPACT on a person. Its a MUST SEE! AHHA I JUST LOVED IT!

Summary: Powerful love story
Review: This is my first foreign film i watched and i cant praise it enough! I was told by a friend to go see this movie and being a little skeptical about it I was hesitant ... BUT glad 100% I took his advice. Coming from a girl that only watches AMERICAN MOVIES, I tried looking at the film from a fresh prospective but u dont need that because it just touches anyone persons heart and carries u away in the twist of the love be tween Deva (Devdas) and Paro. THIS IS A MUST SEE!! You will Laugh and Cry any movie that can do that to u is worth seeing. AHHA JUST LOVED IT!!

Summary: Bollywood's Finest!!!
Review: Yes, the movie is long, and involved, and over-dramatized, and long, but if you have a problem with any of that then you really shouldn't be watching an Indian film in the first place.
Once you get past the afore mentioned minor details you will absolutely LOVE Devdas. I consider myself experienced in the "bollywood movie viewing" genre, but this movie absolutely blew me away. It truly takes every Bollywood trademark to the extreme: elaborate costumes, elaborate songs, elaborate dances, elaborate relationships.
But what I really like about Devdas is the way it was filmed. I love Indian movies but they more often than not make me feel like I'm watching something straight out of the 80s. Devdas is nothing like that. It is very modern in its direction and it is masterfully filmed.
Another thing that sets it apart from most other bollywood films is that the end doesn't leave a warm feeling in your heart and a smile on your face. In fact, it leaves you with quite the opposite. But the entire story is so well written, and the ending is so tragic and haunting that you won't give a second thought to those streams of tears running down your cheeks!
Personally, Devdas has become my favorite bollywood film (just knocking out Dil To Pagal Hai and Kahbi Kushi Kahbi Gahm) and I hope you all buy it and enjoy it too!

Summary: Over over overdone
Review: Totally overdone. In which India do people live like that? Now or ever? The exaggeration is embarassing. Why aren't Indian filmakers able to make anything even mildly interesting? This is three hours worth of drivel.

Summary: Pure eye-candy
Review: I would recommend Devdas if you like:
- Obsessive romance stories
- Shah Rukh Khan, Madhuri Dixit or Aishwarya Rai
- Looking at gorgeous scenery, outfits and jewelry
- Great acting
- Hindi music
If you like movies with a lot of violence, a story that actually makes sense and is believable or non-romantic movies, I would not recommend this movie for you.

Summary: Price is excessive
Review: You can find this DVD for much cheaper if you walk into any Indian grocery/DVD/corner store.Aside from this, great movie. Great melodrama - represents what Bollywood is all about. Loud emotions. Loud acting. Loud everything. Don't try to pick it apart - look at it as a whole. You'll appreciate it a lot more that way. But yes, Khan's perf is rather atrocious.
