Just came back from seeing this movie!
One emotion I feel---I FEEL GOOD!!!!! 😊

Honestly speaking I was upset and angry about an unknown reason before I entered the theatre. I walk in and see it's practically empty, but that doesn't bother me because I love watching movies in peace and quiet. I get my nachos and pepsi and get seated to enjoy a yash raj film. As soon as the film begins it gets to the point. I won't reveal anything (unless you want me to 😉 ). Anyway I see Saif right in the beginning carrying a very suave and business man look. And then the entry of Amisha in her EXTREMELY short dresses. She looks good no doubt, but I don't understand the point of the extra skin show!? 😕
The KIDS are sooo cute, adorable, expressive, emotional, funny, and just worth a watch! Rani is a delight to watch. Seriously, her one smile brings a smile to the face. Man do I miss seeing her in more films!
Saif is such a treat to watch. The last look/performance of his I loved was Hum Tum, and he brings about the same energy and acting into this film. I fell in luv with his acting and personality all over again.
The story is along the lines of Hum Hain Rahi Pyar Ke, but with loads of Magic and a few twists in the story. I would recommend this movie because the story is a feel good entertainer. You walk out of the theatre not thinking, not crying, but FEELING GOOD and with a Smile on your face. Go watch it! 😊

oh ya the most cute movie in recent times. as someone said it definitely puts a smile on everyones faces. We all love magic whatever age and stage. And one thing the special effects are not tacky. they r very superb. kids are cute.Saif looks a bit old.Rani looks like a million dollars though she has worn the same outfit in the whole movie. the only bad thing for the kids are too revealing dresses worn by amisha patel and one very inappropriately put in item number kind of a song which amisha does with saif. Otherwise its a lovely feel good light movie. There are some explanations to some very complex situations in life. And the cocept of a cute god is realy nice.no sermonising and very childlikely logical. go for the movie. if there is a kid in u still who loves magic u will love it

It lacks decent story.

It lacks decent acting.

It lacks decent music.

In conclusion, it pretty much lacks everything that accounts for a good Bollywood movie.

Why would an angel drop down from heaven (if it exists) to solve the problems of a wealthy man? Why does "god" only have sympathy for these four orphaned kids and the rigid lonely businessman? What about the rest of the population that is starving? Those ailing starving kids definitely need angel Geeta's services more. Geeta comes with the mission to unite Ranbir and the kids - great! Why can't she resolve the conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq in the same manner? Spread the love?

Judge Something-or-the-Other decides that Ranbir must take charge of being the guardian to the four kids since he is responsible for their parents' deaths. By Indian judiciary standards, this is considered punishment? If these are indeed the judiciary standards, one should haul this movie, its producers and directors to the court for portraying the legislature in such light.

Why are none of the kids adorable?!!?!? They look average, at best and their performances are none too exemplary. Exemplary is Ayesha Kapoor of Black, Darsheel Safary of TZP, and the kiddo in Pan's Labyrinth.

Saif and Rani are touted to be "par excellence" Bollywood actors - as is a one-eyed man in the land of the blind - but they both fall flat on their faces in TPTM. Saif supposed to play a humorless guy but he is rigid as board. Rani's been going downhill after Black. She either flashes a megawatt smile towards the camera or petulant scowls. With Hollywood par excellence actors such as Will Smith, Tom Hanks, Angelina Jolie et al, you can at least expect decent acting - even if the script reeks of boredom - however, with Bollywood numero uno actors, decent acting seems to be too much to ask for. Let's not get started on Amisha whose clothes seem to be spray painted on her so much for her almost bearable acting in Bhool Bhulaiya. She gets the benefit of doubt as her character is very poorly fleshed out.

Trying to find decent music in the movie is equivalent of trying to find water in the Sahara. The tempo drags SO much that you're tempted to sleep on the shoulder of the stranger sitting next to you.

I'd say it was a good movie for kids but it's more of a childish attempt at moviemaking.

2/5

Review Thoda Pyar Thoda Magic

The movie was awesome, it made me feel very mushy, it was a feel good film, it was an emotional film, it made you cry, it made you laugh, what more you need? The kids were superb, they acted very well. Rani Mukherji like always fit into her character and did an exceptional job. Rishi kapoor wasn't seen much he was like a special appearance. Amisha patel's clothing and body is looking good, but she still doesn't have any oomph. Who stole the show for me was Saif, he acted brilliantly! His expressions said it all! He conveyed his pain, frustrations, love, fear with sheer perfection. Your heart went out to his character, the character he played was a very complex one, but he came out with flying colours! Marvellous job! No one could've pulled it of better then saif! I have adored him in Hum Tum, Salaam Namaste, Omkara, Ta Ra Rum Pum, Race and now I adore him in Thoda Pyar Thoda Magic, which is another feather in his cap. He has handled the emotional moments with such vulnerability, you could feel his character, you cried with him, you felt his fear and pain throughout. Loved the chemistry the kids and Saif shared, loved all the moments he had with them. The love story between Saif and Rani was excellent, I loved how Rani kept popping up and showed him her sweet innocent eyes, loved the dialogue 'jub yaha peh dard hota hai na, tau aansoo aate hain' they rocked it, there might not be too many scenes between the two, but they rocked! The last few sequences between them were rocking, Saif looked sooooo hot in those sequences, love the hug they share at the end! Terrific film, a very feel good film, fantastic direction, loved the song Pyar Ke liye-the rest was pretty ordinary. Loved the Film, this film gets 4.5/5 from me, been a big fan of Kunal Kohli's films, Hum Tum is my fav loved the chemistry between Saif and Rani, Fanaa was mindblasting and now thoda pyar thoda magic. All of these films give me a very mushy feeling, they are beautiful films and depict love in a very beautiful manner! Continue your great work Kunal! U rock my sox!

I watched the movie today and would recommend it to all families. Good fun filled, neat and clean movie for the whole family 👏 👏 It is a combination of the old Rajesh Khanna movie "Dushman' and 'Mary poppins' and 'Hum hain rahi pyaar ke'

I loved the fact that the kids were the main characters in the movie and the whole story revolved around them. There were no unnecessary villains, no cheesy romantic scenes and no melodrama. All the emotions were very subtle and hence had more impact.

Loved Saif's acting 👏 👏 He has come a long way from his 'ole ole' days. His facial expressions are a treat to watch- whether it was the stern and stuck up executive or later the warm hearted Ranbeer bhaiyya.

My favorite scene of the movie- whan Saif defended all the kids in front of the American executive

The part I did not like was the picturization of my favorite song "lazy lamhe' 😕 and Rani's Punjabi accent sounded fake 😕

On a funny note, Kunal really save money on the women's wardrobe. Rani wore one costume throughout and Amisha just had her bikini 😆 😆

My rating 3.5/5 😊 😊
