This movie, a first ever sci-fi movie of the Tamil Movie industry manages to hit right on spot. Rajnikanth, Shankar, A. R. Rahman; the dream trio can never go wrong, and this has been proved once again with Enthiran. Director Shankar's masterpiece Enthiran keeps the interest of the average Rajnikanth fan, as well as meets the expectations of the more sophisticated moviegoer. A R Rahman's music is awesome. Songs locations are exotic and certainly a visual treat. Whether it's the breezy Kadhal Anukkal, or the exotic Kilimajaro or even the final Arima Arima, the picturization is marvelous. Aishwarya looks glamorous and enchanting. Audience will enjoy watching her as much as Rajnikanth, if not more. This movie is path breaking in its sci-fi script and use of world-class special effects technology. Hope it inspires other producers and directors to break from the vicious circle of run-of-the-mill scripts.

"Endhiran" means "Robot" in English. Best movie I have ever seen in many decades!
This is an action/sci fi movie with subtitles that more than everything that could be imagined a "Bollywood" movie could have. The several musical interludes have beautiful music and they push along the storyline. The singing is perfect for this movie. The is very little English in the dialog and songs but the subtitles are easy to read. The storyline has a lot of humor in it and the serious part of the storyline is very plausible. I have watched this movie many times and see new things in it each time. The science fiction parts are extremely well done with action so realistic that you can almost believe that it all is real. I had seen a short clip of this movie several years ago and had hunted for the complete movie ever since and finally I had found it and it had everything I imagined it would be and much much more. "Endhiran" means "Robot" in English.

"ROBOT" Was an awesome and rather long movie.
I am not from India, but this movie is great. It's also 3 hours long! It's also not region locked or copy protected that I can see. The "Freeway Scene" of this movie popped up on Youtube some years ago and became notorious among my friends. I stumbled across this after talking to my Indian coworkers. The movie does feature English sub's. Sometimes the spelling of things is really bad, and there are little spots of English in the movie here and there as that's the culture. This is only the second Rajnikanth movie I have ever seen, but personally I like this one the most. Is it the over the top action or slap stick comedy? Maybe the terrible yet completely effective special effects? I dunno. This movie has a personality that's hard not to love. About the only parts we didn't like was the dance sequences in between major parts of the movie. Not because they were bad, in fact they seemed well made, but just not our thing. You can skip them or soak in the choreographed culture! :)Kido's to Raj, the rest of the actors, dancers, and director for a very entertaining movie.

Good movie, good DVD
Since Amazon unfortunately lumps all reviews of a given work together regardless of medium or edition, I'm writing this to say that my copy of the "Endhiran 2 DVD Special Edition" version is just fine. Good quality, good subtitles, good packaging. Appears genuine and not pirated. The film is not a masterpiece, but it's great eye candy, the story is not overly stupid (albeit predictable), and the acting is fine.

Great Movie
Great movie with a lot of hilarious (intentional or not) parts, along with the plot in general. I'd recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys a good laugh, and also watching movies where outrageous things happen. (kind of like how Chuck Norris never gets hurt in any of his movies... He crashes a plane nose first into the ground and walks out of the wreckage without a scratch.)I'm a huge fan of foreign movies (non USA/Canada) , especially Asian horrors/action movies. This was the first Indian movie i have seen, and it looked incredible when i seen a small clip on YouTube. I also purchased Ra-One with this film. Endhiran definitely is a must see.One spoiler.... Theres a lot of Singing and dancing. But i enjoyed the music because i have a weak spot for songs in the non english/spanish tongue.

A lot of fun!
I really enjoyed this movie. I thought it was great fun all the way through. I like the musical numbers interspersed throughout the movie. It reminded me of Hollywood's Golden Age when most all movies had at least one musical number. I thought the visual, acting, and sound track were great.I do think the movie could have been edited down to 2 or 2.5 hours though. Also, a friend of mine from India didn't like it near as much as I did, he felt the acting was sub-par. He says I didn't notice it because I had to read sub-titles. Maybe so, but I liked it.

great movie
Should be bucket list for any film buff. Also a solid, timely cautionary tale for AI runnong rampant, a film ahead of it's time.

Movie is great, bu the DVD was likely created in a DVD burner. After a few months, it is not even playing correctly.

Remarkable movie
Watch this for the fun. The science is rediculous, the plot unlikely, but the action is pure fun!
