First here it is review from professionals.
Gaurav Malani in the Indian Economic and the Times of India
Rating : 2 stars
Faltu starts as a fun-n-frivolous campus on the lines of Style but switches sensibilities to '3 idiots' somewhere in between with a moral message appended to its superficial story.
Remade from the Hollywood flick Accepted (2006), the story is about friends Ritesh (Jacky Bhagnani), Pooja (Pooja Gupta) and Nanj (Angad Bedi) who are turned don by every college, thanks to their below-average marks. With the help of friend Google chand (Arshad Warsi), they plan to pose a rundown property as their new college to appease their parents. Baaji Rao (Riteish Deshmukh) pretends to be the young principal of the Institute.
Review By Business Star: 3 stars out of 5
What's good: The dialogues; performances of the artistes; music.
What's bad: The screenplay could have done with more plausibility. The film reminds too much of '3 Idiots' but reaches nowhere near it.
Verdict: F.A.L.T.U is a youthful film which offers fair entertainment.
Loo break: A couple in the second half
Watch or not?: Definitely! Go and enjoy!!
Review by Ankur Pathak:
Rediff Rating: 3 stars out of 5
[...] Most of F.A.L.T.U. is pleasing. Although the premise is unrealistic, to stretch the parameters that decide authenticity, the movie convinces you, and moreover, even in its fabricated fashion, it does succeed in confronting the flaws in our educational scenario.
[...] FALTU targets the challenging tour of transition from high school (junior college) to a well-recognised degree institute whereas the latter stressed on the pressure post entering.
Although FALTU's screenplay is openly lifted from 'Accepted', as the movie terminates it takes its own course resulting into an unexpectedly charming climax that metaphorically demonstrates the teething troubles of students stuck in a just passed to an average category.[...]
[...] An ambitious sophomore story of scholastically dim students coursing an almost impossible journey to prove their worth, enrolling for once in FALTU, might not be a faltu idea after all.
