well well well..my last review in this forum was about another yash raj film named jhoom barabar jhoom and here i m again describing CHAK DE..wch i believe is one of the most entralling and superbly shot film of all times....SRK was too good for the role and the girls who acted as the indian hockey players were fresh and full of life...the story was captivaing frm top to bottom and urges poeaple to think about the dirty politics that goes on in INDIA regarding the deprivation of women in sports and other phases of life....Let me give a quick summary of wat is to cum without dwelling into the details...the story starts with a quick flashback of the indian mens hockey team playing against pakistan in the finals of the hockey world cup..india is trailing 2-1 and in the last second kabir khan(srk) captain and forward of the indian hockey team gts a penalty stroke wch against all oppositon decides to take himself and misses..the whole of india trounces him as a traiter....and he removes himself from the society for 7 years until he comes back to join as the coach of the national womens hockey team agaisnt all odds..the womens hockey team was subject to all sorts of opposition from the association itself..a line states..."ye belan chalane wali bharatiya nariya hai.ye kya knicker wicker pehen ke khelegi.."...but kabir khan took up the challenge and nw its up to him to take up india to the world cup and also lead them something beyond their wildest dreams...the story is so well written that there is not a single second where the audience shall find themselves out of place....and special mention should also be aken of the background score...to be frank its one of the bes i hav heard for a long time....ITS PERFECT..too good....neways guys make sure u go and watch the film....giv ur comments and make urself proud to be an indian by shouting..CHAK DE!!!!

The movie is based on the real life story of Mir Negi. Thats why it is so compelling.

It is the best bollywood movie i ever had the pleasure to watch. Stupendous background score, excellent choreography, gripping story. i am going to watch it once more time. SRK's acting was mind- blowing. the film makes u proud (of being an indian)

After scores of Hollywood movies on how coaches get the team to buck up and inspire them to do the impossibles we also have one. I am happy that it is not a crap.

Just seen it. Mind blowing movie. Awesome. Must watch for everyone. The background music was awesome. The woofers seemed as if they'll self destruct by reproducing all those beats! The title track was kickass and would play at just the right moment in the movie. 4.5/5 from me.

im not a big SRK fan infact i always believe he does not know acting and im his big critic.
i dint wanted to go for the movie coz it starred SRK but i was kinda dragged to the movie hall.
and once the movie started never felt like that again.
the movie was stupendously awesome.
a great bollywood movie(surprisingly)
3.75/5
would have been still better if it was 30 mins longer.
