Aedonerre I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.

Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Asad Almond A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

Tymon Sutton The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

sreenathansaber Shoojit Sircar's Vicky Donor is a definite entertainer.The acting is nice, music is genuine, dialogs are witty and direction promising. Ayushmann Khurrana and Yami Gautam play their roles convincingly. They make such a good pair too in the film. It is difficult to believe that they are débutantes.Dolly Ahluwalia as Vicky's mother and Annu kapoor as an eccentric Dr.Chaddha too steal the show. Kamlesh Gill,who plays the role of Vicky's grandmother requires a special mention.The film never never lags or crawls.The plot unwinds in its natural pace..with beautiful songs and plenty of memorable sequences.. Ayushmann's voice and music complement each other and fit perfectly into the mis en scene..especially the Punjabi song 'Pani Da Rang'.There is little masala and the film succeeds to an extent in popularizing the concept of sperm-donation .From a critical angle, the film makes certain brow-raising remarks about fertility and history. Dr. Chaddha's remarks about the high fertility/ potency rates of Aryans are questionable. History doesn't provide any evidence regarding the high potency rates of a particular race/tribe. Rather,it is more dependent on psychological reasons. Also the film seems to blindly support the Aryan invasion Theory, which is a highly debated topic even among historians.Anyways, Vicky Donor is not a historical/political film. It is a wholesome entertainer with a clear message. Even though it might have inspired by the Hollywood flick 'Starbuck', it doesn't depreciate the merit. Its just artistic license.Afterall, what is original but 'undetected Plagiarism??'8 stars..Kudos to the team!!

prince_c3 Well may be not many Indian don't know that is the reason they are Compelled to give high rating for this movie. Though the movie itself is good if only it's not the rip off the movie "Starbuck". Well it happens in India that they don't have copy right constraint on anything. That is the reason Indian producers, directors, Music directors and everyone keep lifting the movies, music and pretty much everything and present like it's their original idea. Sad part is Hollywood or other countries don't even know that a violation of copyright happened in India every other day.The new comer actor did a good job, still it's a rip off and they don't even mention or give credit to original movie they never does anyway.

raja-mishra7 Anything Delhi works these days.New Movie Destination Delhi and there exactly is where Vicky lives Sircar does it again, but succeeds this time.Anshumann Khurrana with one extra r and an extra n was good, its nice to see such talent evolve Yamini Gautam a fresh face for the Art house, we expect her to feature in some item number in some crappy Yash Raj Movie sometime Now the plot: Good, Sircar is a man of literature he does well handling it, story was good enough to save your ticket money.I liked the movie, but didn't have the X factor to go the distance, to be a big movie, you need a huge star to earn that status! 6.4/10

CAMKG As I am writing this, about 5000 people have rated this film; 25% of them have rated it a 10. 50% of them have rated it a 9 or 8 and the remaining 25% have rated it a 7 or less. I am not going to even bother with the bottom 25% - they exist to make life interesting and adventurous. The top 25%: glad you got it. The remaining 50% who rated it 8 or 9 - I ask you this humbly and earnestly: Why? Lets look at the film as objectively as in my opinion, I can. The script of the film is excellent; no major glitches, hardly any minor ones, respect for the audience's intelligence, very authentic (if you happen to be familiar with the Delhi milieu, you will surely agree), multi-dimensional characters, 3 complete acts, extremely good dialogues. Technically, as in cinematography, production design, art direction, sound, sfx, it has limited scope due to the script, but within that limited scope, very competent. The editing could perhaps have chopped off about 1-2 minutes in the pre-climax when there is a conflict in the protagonists' lives. The music is very apt for the tone and flow of the film, Paani Da Rang being my personal favourite. Very ably directed by Soojit Sircar. He had a fantastic script to work with and his genius was in adhering to it. He has also done a brilliant job in his choice of actors. Ayushman Khurana, Anu Kapoor, Yami Gautam and Dolly Ahluwalia are the principal characters who have all done a fabulous job. But the diligence of Sircar lies in his choice of his supporting cast. There are at least another 20 speaking characters in the film and their competent characterization in writing and performing lends tremendous credibility to the film. From a financial standpoint, the film was made on a very reasonable budget (Rs. 5 crore as per wikipedia) and marketed appropriately earning over 9 times the cost (again as per wikipedia). So the producers have done justice to their investors as well as distributors. Great balance of art and commerce.Now, moving on to the heart from the brain, this film in my opinion is phenomenal. It is a great comedy not just for its laugh-off-your-chair moments, but for its numerous bring-a-smile-to-your-face moments and touch-your-heart moments. In the world of films, most of us love categorization as per genres and this would fall into the feel-good comedies section at your DVD store or your online streaming website. And we are unfortunately programmed to think that feel-good is not worthy of a 10. There should be some larger-than-life greatness or a very grand idea about how to make the world a better place for a movie to be rated a 10. I will just say this: (aside from the fact that as a healthy father married to the healthy mother of our healthy 8 month old grace from God baby girl, I balled my eyes out at the end of this 2 hour joyful bliss) Hrishikesh Mukherjee would have been very proud of Shoojit Sircar. Definitely the best of 2012 thus far.
