Just Imagine

So it's really all flidgetjerome's fault for introducing me to Bollywood in the first place. I have digital cable, and it lets you do some on-demand type things for certain channels. And one of them is all Bollywood movies. You have to pay for them, which is why I never did in the first place, but last night I gave in and watched a movie called Krrish.

Krrish is a superhero origin story, and....ZOMG it's 10 kinds of adorable. Krishna starts out as a young boy with amazing physical and mental powers, so his grandmother freaks out and hides him in the mountains. There he grows to be not so much Clark Kent as Heidi of the Alps. So he's sweet and smart and can jump tall mountains in only a very few bounds, oh yeah, and talk to animals. He eventually meets Lois Lane Priya who is camping on the mountain, and falls like a million bricks. She and her friend Honey get Krishna to follow them back to Singapore. His sweet old granny tells him not to reveal any of his amazing powers, which results in masked crime fighting! Yay!

And because this is Bollywood there is singing and dancing along with the wirework and cgi fight scenes. Anyway, it's a totally adorable movie, and I highly reccomend it if you can find it.
