这个大体改编于印度畅销书作家奇坦·巴哈特（Chetan Bhagat）的处女作小说《五点人》（Five Point Someone）的故事果然爆笑，名字里“三傻瓜”所言非虚——在每学期42场考试、成绩排名张榜公布、竞争激烈乃至自杀率高居不下的“皇家工程学院”中，竟然出现了个周星驰般不按牌理出牌的问题学生兰彻（Rancho），他顶撞老师，质疑传统，完全不把成绩当回事，古板校长“病毒”当然要骂那两个追随兰彻的室友，法兰（Farhran）与拉杜（Raju）是大傻瓜了。
这个特立独行的兰彻有个口头语叫“一切都好”（Aal izz well），影片中一段恰到好处的歌舞充分诠释了这种乐天派心态的关键——就算不能解决问题，至少可以平复心绪，打败恐惧，增加直面问题的勇气。我非常佩服影片的导演在这段歌舞前后的调度安排，每段超现实的舞蹈暂告一段落后镜头都切回故事进程，轻松推进情节发展；整个狂欢结束后再突如其来一个巨大的对比，让观众的情绪从轻松惬意的云端直坠沮丧遗憾的谷底，既增加了剧情本身的跌宕起伏，又给本来轻飘飘的“一切都好”加入了对比及深度。宝莱坞的叙事技巧实非虚名。
比起通常的好莱坞喜剧片，《三个傻瓜》几乎长出一倍，小包袱小笑料层出不穷，种种小片段事无巨细，但却并不考验观众的耐心。我觉得这跟情节安排的前后呼应及影片整体所维系的
“严肃的调侃”基调分不开关系。最明显的一个例子是在介绍拉杜的家庭环境时，画外音一边自嘲地说“就像五十年代黑白电影的翻版，狭小昏暗的房间，瘫痪的父亲，咳嗽的母亲，尚未成婚的姐姐”，一边自动将画面饱和度调低，故意弄成黑白老电影的粗糙颗粒质感。以后只要一演到拉杜的家，电影就自动彩色转黑白。而不管是“一切都好”，还是“病毒电力转换器”，只要前面有所铺垫，后面的桥段就必然用到，包括兰彻所臆想的“骑摩托新娘”，工整得近乎精致。
但我觉得影片最值得嘉奖的还是其不吝自嘲的精神。没有那些调侃与歌舞，剩余的便只有干巴巴的励志。自嘲也使得影片脱离了现实主义的调子，不会变成义正言辞的空洞鼓噪，要不然，这个纯理想主义的空谈还真难于自圆其说。人人都知道兰彻说得极对，却也都知道他那一套在现实生活中将处处碰壁。理想面对现实为什么总是撞得粉碎？这可不是简单归类为缺乏激情或充满恐惧便能解释一切的，更多的时候，再高歌“一切都好”也只不过是阿Q精神的自我麻痹。长辈的期许、同侪的压力、生存的必须、机会的稀缺，天赋的不可求、一次又一次向理想主义证明特立独行者们的悲惨命运；而死记硬背的模范学生“消音器”才是大众意义上的成功典范。这个“典范”也许毫无人格魅力，缺乏创新精神，充其量只能当个打工皇帝；但在一个贫富分化严峻，大部分人尚在为温饱奋斗的第三世界国家里，不先孕育出适合理想
成长的土壤就空谈理想的实现是多么幼稚啊，那根本就是一条不成功即成仁的血路！要超越生存阻碍，披荆斩棘义无反顾地追求理想当然可歌可泣，但这其中必须跨越的灰色地带可比电影一笔带过十年的笑谈残酷得多，不一定白骨涔涔，可至少也血泪斑斑。已经浪漫化了的好莱坞影片《当幸福来敲门》（The Pursuit of Happyness）都还得展示主人公带着年幼的孩子无家可归，经过睡厕所、吃救济的低谷才能抓住机遇，终于奔向成功；《三个傻瓜》将一个独行者的奋斗艰辛干脆忽略，重点完全放在理想主义的理论之上，没有调侃，不搞自嘲肯定行不通。
两个小时的片长，无半点拖沓的就把故事轻松讲完了，不刻意讨观众开心，也没有做作的煽情，却会发自内心的哭完又笑，笑中带泪，导演完全把我们拉进了电影一般。可以说以说，它打动了一大批中国年青学生，尤其是感动了已经步入社会的80后和正在象牙塔煎熬的90后。追求故事的真实感是导演的制胜法宝。对于绝大部分渡过大学时代的人而言，上大学报专业只是为了考虑四年之后的就业，究竟到底喜欢与否就看个人性格取向，最终四年之后能否得到一份好的工作。我希望能有乔伊的坚持，“今天我不请求上帝给我这份工作，只为这生命而感激”，“你保留你的职位，而我坚持保留我的态度”。
可能一开始大家都觉得兰彻这家伙可能本来就跟常人不一样，也许他就是个天才。但事实上是这样吗，我只想用主人公兰彻的话来解答：“知道我为什么第一名吗？因为我热爱机械，
工程学就是我的兴趣所在，知道你的兴趣吗？这就是你的兴趣??跟工程学说拜拜，跟摄影业结婚，发挥你的才能，想想迈克尔杰克逊的爸爸硬逼他成为拳击手，拳王阿里的爸爸非要他去唱歌，想想后果多可怕？”
剧中的“大道理”里给我留下最深刻印象——以后遇到事情，我想我会不介意学学神圣智者兰彻达斯，用右手砸砸左胸小声告诉自己“一切顺利”——因为有时候心是很脆弱的，它需要我们的安慰来使它变得坚强！能传递到相信“美好”这样信息，便是一部好的电影。我也确实感受到了美好：激情的歌舞，执着的追求，没有的理想、美丽的人格、贫穷的加坚韧的毅力，自由的心……所有的一切，可以用影片最后一句话来总结“有位智者说...学习是为了完善人生，而非享乐人生，追求卓越，成功就会在不经意间追上你……”
让我们再次回味一下影片中的经典台词
“一出生就有人告诉我们，生活是场赛跑，不跑快点就会惨遭蹂躏，哪怕是出生，我们都得和3亿个精子赛跑”
“盐水具有极强的导电性，初二物理知识，我们都学过，只有他会应用。”
“噪鹃从来不自己筑巢，他只在别人的巢里下蛋，要孵蛋的时候他们会怎样？他们会把其他的蛋从巢里挤出去，竞争结束了，他们的生命从谋杀开始，这就是大自然——要么竞争，要么死??”
“这支笔是卓越的标志，等你遇见和你一样卓越的学生，请再传给他，32年，我一直在等那个学生出现??”
“你们都陷入比赛中，就算你是第一，这种方式又有什么用？你的知识会增长吗？不会，增长的只有压力。这里是大学，不是高压锅??”
“心很脆弱，你得学会去哄他，不管遇到多大困难，告诉你的心“一切顺利” ”
“为什么要把缺点公之于众呢？好比你缺铁，医生会给你开补铁药，但不会到电视上说你缺铁。”
“因为你是懦夫，害怕未来，看看这个，戒指比手指头还多。为开始戴，为姐姐嫁妆戴，为工作戴??你这么害怕明天，怎么能过好今天？又怎么能专注于学业？两个怪兄弟，一个害怕，一个虚伪??
“在人类行为学课上我们曾学过，朋友失败时，你难过.朋友成功时，你更难过”

All is well-3idiots film review
In 2011, one year before, I found a movie on the internet; the film review evaluation is pretty good. I started watching the movie at 11pm. And I considered watching for 1 hour, then I have to go to sleep. But I kept on watching till 2 or 3pm. In fact, I had never been moved by a movie .However the truth is that I cried with full of touching.
A huge number of giants told us:” Never judge a book with its cover.” The great novel writer named Wuchengen in Chinese ancient also said: Men cannot be judged by their looks. The name “3 idiots” seem like a stupid name, but the spirit in it is luxuriant.
Life is about listening to your heart and chasing your dreams. That’s what idiots told us. Three Idiots isn’t about idiots or fools. It’s about 3 young student who believe dreams: I’ll Do It On my TermS-IDIOTS. That is what the three characters achieve in lives.
The movie is like the stage lines: All is well. The movie began with the memorizes that they looked for their good friend-Rancho. Ten years ago, Rancho went to the university instead of other.

it's entertaining, it's enlightening. The film has tremendous youth appeal and feel-good factor to work in a big way.
