A brilliant film that helped define a genre

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Amar akbar anthony is brilliant cinema and full of entertainment. Directed by Manmohan Desai who has made films like coolie, mard and naseeb. Once again Manmohan directs a fabulous movie with action, comesy and family drama. Vinod plays Amar a hindu character and gives a good performance. Rishi plays Akbar and gives a lovable performance. Amitabh plays Anthony and gives an outstanding performance. Amitabh received a Best actor award for his role of Anthony. Shabana Azmi gives a decent performance, Neetu Singh is alright. Parveen babi is lovely, Pran and Nirupa Roy are supporting roles in this movie and give good performances. The movie has loads of great songs, my favorite is My name is Anthony Gonsalves.

This really was a great movie to watch, my mum really loves this film too, it;s the story about 3 brothers Amar (Vinod Khanna who played his part so well in the film,this guy is such a great actor and i hope he makes more great films like this one) Akbar (Rishi Kapoor, who is such a legend, he played his part so well and make me laugh in the film) and Anthony( played by Big B he was so funny and i just love the ending of this film too. Shabana Azmi is in this film too, she looked so beautiful and elegant, and she too along with the other female leads acted really well. and i really loved the music especially the title song, the film really is a classic and worth watching, it's a nice family movie. go and check it out.

Probably the best example of Bollywood cinema from the early 80's, AAA is eye catching and wonderfully acted with a brilliant score. Amitabh Bachchan truly steals the show with his over the top "My name is Anthony Gonsalves" sequence. Shabana Azmi is fantastic in a supporting role. The real dealmakers for the film, however, are Pran and Jeevan who respectively are devilishly fiendish as Kishenlal (reborn of course -- who can forget the brilliant "Sewer ka putter ..." sequence after spotting Robert on his return) and Robert, the antagonist to all. Sure the ending is over the top, but hey, this was the heyday of Bollywood. And isn't Taiyyab Ali one of the most comically genius roles of all time.Exceptionally done and a must-see.

This film is a true Bollywood classic. The story is wonderful and quick moving. The acting, brilliant. It is a must see for anyone interested in Bollywood. The film follows a standard Bollywood format,i.e. family tragedy and the ability to overcome. Add that splash of romance and this movie has it all.
