Dhoom-2 : errr.... DOOM -2
STORY:-> An exceptionally talented criminal wants to show to the world that, he can steal watever he wants, wherever he wants, whenever he wants and there is an extremely capable police officer trying [NOT] to stop him and all this happens in between nauseating glamour and deafening music.
The film starts in an unbelievably calm desert, where a train is moving JUST as fast it generally does in a typical masala hindi movie where the hero /anti-hero is bound to thrash a dozen men all waiting to get beaten up..... Inside there is a diadem(crown) waiting to get robbed and u can see an old queen pampering her great grand daughter. The Train is well guarded(again the typical bollywood way of tight security) and no one can possibly even dream of making it their own. As the camera shifts to the outside scenery, u can see a helicopter in the bgnd at a considerable height and THEN starts....
" tooodan toooodan toooodan tudandan tudandan.... " ... (THEME MUSIC of DHOOM)...
and ..........
v see the old queen havin a sly yet "erotic" smile which is supposed to show how clever she is.. and suddenly the crown is gone...and in its place there is an "A" shaped wooden piece and as u r confused abt y this took sooo loong to happen.....the camera shifts to the place where it shuld ve been till now -> The compartment roof and there u can see the queen stripping......
And THERE COMES frm the queen................................... Mr A/Arya ( Hrithik Roshan) who after using some insanely 'advanced' devices(such as..propellant enabled roller skates,plasma powered booster rockets ) manages to escape with the crown unhurt ...!!
(by now the theme music wuld ve done sum irreversible damage to ur ear)....
( oh ya... there is a scene where he shows how one can skiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii on sand dunes....... )
'DARE DEVIL DAN'ish Ali akbar Fateh Khan( Uday chopra) uses the DHOOM bike very well to smuggle goods worth crores in a laptop bag( if u carefully observe.. i think u can even notice the letters D,E,L,L written in an oblique way suggesting the DELL logo..). But since he fails to do much(not only in that scene.. but for the entire length of the movie where his struggles to make the viewers laugh becomes laudable.....) he paves way for the inevitable yet UNNECESSARY entry of Mr Jai Dixit(Abhishek bachan) in the movie. Together the two dont create even an iota of impact, if not for making u try hard to search for LOGIC in the movie.
Ms(ACP) Sonali Bose.(Bipasha basuuuuu ) 's entry scene is one part of the movie regarding which i dont dare to comment. She did look terrific and her costumes were rightly chosen to "SHOW" how "Structured" she is......!!!!!!(woooooooooooooowwww!!) .. Neverthless she has nothing much to do except stun herself at how brilliant Jai is...
Sonali and Jai, in a private, highly coverted discussion with two three other not so important police officials try to understand the logic behind the crimes committed by Mr A all over the world. Here, Jai shows how exceptional he is in Logical reasoning. His appetite for cracking codes and patterns, though projected in a manner which ll even stun JOHN NASH, makes it very difficult for us to accept he is actually that brilliant due to the inherent gullible-inane look on his face as he decodes the pattern behind the crimes.
Ms Sunehiri( Aishwarya Rai) 's role in the movie seems obscure till the climax and there is really NO LOGIC TO EXPLAIN from where she actually entered the movie etc..(oops.. am i talkin abt logic again..?? ! sorry....). Due to some reason (I THINK)she has been made to look as bad as she can b made to possibly look and I can really tell u she looked better in all her movies till date. Bipasha, though HOT in the second half in her "i-wear-bikini-only" outfit, doesn look as good as she looked b4, makin it even more tuf for neone to decide if the time has come to leave the theatre once u r thro with the interval.
Hrithik's well built muscular physique(particularly his abs) make him look really cooool !! and the few girls whom i asked had their minds TOTALLY blown to bits seeing him.
The romance between Mr A and Sunheri invovles some irrelevant sentimental dialogues which doesn make sense to anyone listening. It makes no difference actually because ur headache and frustration by the time this scene comes in the movie ll anyways not make u listen to this stuff.
The film proceeds at a pace which most snails wont find tough to beat and by the time u reach the climax, u r most likely tired of yawning and cursing urself for wasting money and time on this movie. The climax is a well thought off one, designed particularly to make u bang ur head on the seat in front of u for having sat thro' this movie this looong.
Inspite of all this, Hrithik's make-up in the different crime scenes must b appreciated. Extensive use of graphics don seem that unrealistic cos of Hrithik's well toned body and he makes those fantasies seem realisable.
If u wanna watch this movie, please don watch it in a "local" theatre, cos for movies like these Theatres make all the difference......
When I was coming out of the theatre scolding myself for having taken a wrng decision abt seeing the movie, I decided i ll do sumthing abt this..............and here is the result.. THIS BLOG..
BOTTOM LINE :-> Dhoom 3 wont b made !!
