Featured reviews
Mansoor Khan's "Josh" has two rival gangs - Eagles - led by Max (Shahrukh) and Bicchu headed by Prakash (Sharad Kapoor)vying for fame and property. Max's twin Shirley (Aishwarya)falls in love w/ Prakash's bro (Chandrachur).
Good perforamances from SRK;AR;and Sharad Kapoor.A pleasant music score,impressive action sequences and beautiful cinematography in Goa (India) hides the absence of a tight script and sloppy direction. Do not keep your expectations too high.

As i kid, I really was full of Josh watching the rebellious Max played by SRK. Ofcourse he was the reason I was so much interested in the film. Then it was Aishwarya and the Anu Malik's soulful music. 'Haye Mera Dil' and 'Hum to Dil se haare' truly evoked the emotions of the true lovers.
23 years later, yesterday i watched Speilberg's 2021 Musical 'West Side Story' and found so much similarities. Obviously, Mansoor Khan got an idea from this Story which was already much loved in Hollywood. Which itself is inspired by the Romeo and Juliet.
So basically it is Indian version of the same plot. I think it was good adaptation. But could have been better if the Aamir Khan had done the Love interest of Aishwarya. And this would be a perfect cast. Songs are perfect. SRK and Aish did full justice to their role.
New audience can give it a try... If you have watched West Side Story or Romeo or Juliet first, then can enjoy more I would say. Few of my friends who are not a SRK fan, i binge watched with them and they quite liked this movie and appreciated SRK.
My Ratings : 6.5/10 Music Rating : 5/5
Hum bhi hai JoSH mein.. I danced on this song in my school farewell. So memories u see.. ho fellas...

It's not a bad movie, but it wasn't good either.
I found the acting average. Of course, I watched because there was Shahruk Khan.

phew!! this was the reaction many people had when they came out of the theatre. This movie is a bleak remake of the "Westside Story". The movie doesn't use the potential of the star-cast at all. I wouldn't recommend this to anybody
One of the stylish movies in Bollywood. Styles from Shah Rukh Khan. The serious clash between two rivals. Beautiful, beautiful songs. Everyone, specially Srk, Chandrachur, Sharad, Aishwaria, even the small casts did very very well. Everything is super fine unless the last some minutes. I love this entire movie without the ending. Recommended.
