Dus had a lot of things going for it, good action, big star cast, chart topping music, and great production values. But it had no story and a very bad screenplay that led to its downfall. This is sad because it had a lot of potential to be great. The title song, Dus Bahane, is the best part of the movie, fast paced song by Vishal-Shekar, pictured well on Abhishek and Zayed is arguably one of the best Hindi film songs in history. The plot is too ridiculous, basically the India anti-terrorist group must stop a plot in Canada. Of the actors only four actors are worth watching; Abhishek Bachchan, Shilpa Shetty, Sanjay Dutt and Pankaj Kapur in that order. I don't even think this film is a decent time pass film.

What applies to the cooks and broth applies to stars and movie too. Dus was a disappointment to say the least. The only saving grace is the soundtrack... especially the title track.

The storyline was the same old Bollywood formula. The casting was OK but their acting was terrible! Sanjay Dutt looks bored all through the movie. He is better as a munnabhai or a Raghu Shivalkar. Shilpa Shetty's role is quite forgettable. The grunge clothes and the fake tattoos don't really go well on her. AB Jr and Zayed Khan looked hot. Isha Deol was horrible!! First half of the movie was still bearable... second half was more torturous on the audience than on the villains!!! The best part of the movie was Pankaj Kapur. His acting was brilliant. Too bad that its wasted on a movie like this.

I'd advise you to wait for the DVD to come out. Don't buy it. Just rent it... watch the title track (excellent choreography) and then just return it!

Loose ends...weak screenplay and plot development...half hearted attention to details...unnecessary sub-plots and diversions....although must say technical inputs have improved tremendously...Can't they read and discuss scripts before making a movie?..this seems to be happening time and time again in recent times..e.g. Kaal...Bollywood wants to be Hollywood...tries to hold on to classic Bollywood sensibilities with Hollywood glitz and glamour and makes a mess out of it...very disappointed..acting-wise not a bad job by all the four main guys...probably the only other above average department of the movie besides the editing and action sequences....though female characters did not have the space or screen-time.

I couldn't wait for this film to come out, the weeks prior I was eagerly anticipating its release singing along to the sensational title song released off the soundtrack (Dus Bahaane). The movie stars some of the most sort after hottest talent around in Bollywood at the moment, Abisheck (watch out king Khan) Bachan, Sanjay Dutt, Zayed Kahn & Suneil Shetty. The feminine factor is provided by the Beautiful Shilpa Shetty & Esha Deol.

The film begins with a bang, and for an action movie, not the kind you'd expect, as is the trend more & more these days, an item number (the title song) is laid upon us in the opening reel, Zayed Kahn & Abisheck wow us with their good looks and slick suits singing along to "Dus Bahaane". The actual story centre's around the ATC (Anti-Terrorist-Cell), a special forces police force led by Sanjay Dutt. His best officers are Abisheck (also his on-screen younger brother), Zayed & Shilpa. The officers are led to believe from the opening 20 minutes that a major terrorist sort the world over is planning something BIG on the 10th May, exactly 10 days from the start of the film. The clues lead the team to Canada.

In Canada we are introduced to Esha Deal, she plays Neha an undercover officer working for the ATC, she welcomes Abisheck & Zayed who've been sent out by Sanjay to hunt down the terrorist "Jhamwhal". Here the movie accelerates into an explosive pace to catch the terrorist, with lots of twists & turns and great music numbers. The action scenes are a real class act for an Indian film and shows the leaps and bounds Bollywood has made in this area over the years.

The ending is some what disappointing as well as surprising but not in the good way, but all in all a good masala action flick !

This film is one piece of a joke. A complete mishmash of wannabe cool action scenes and heroes (and heroines), all lifted from different famous foreign action movies. Awfully uninspiring, terribly melodramatic and overdone, with a cliché and unoriginal screenplay. The cast is just one bunch of poseurs. Abhishek Bachchan is in the lead, and he is awfully miscast as the "tough" cop. Sanjay Dutt has nothing to do there. Sunil Shetty unsurprisingly overdoes his role and Zayed Khan is more laughable than funny with his annoying fake accent. Shilpa Shetty's Tomb Raider look is one of many mistakes made in the career of an otherwise talented actress who did not get good role offers. At times I was really wondering what the director was thinking while copying some of the most famous scenes of Hindi films. Like, for one, the group song which had them all singing a song when out of nowhere they noticed Sanjay Dutt's serious expression, stopped singing, and then, he suddenly starts singing and dancing with them in a very cheesy way. It is so clearly lifted from the song "Mehndi Laga Ke Rakhna" from Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jaayenge, involving Amrish Puri and Shahrukh Khan. The final scene is simply pathetic, and so is this film. Avoid this dreadful cheapo at any cost.

An all star caste for a roller coaster movie.

This is a reasonable family film which i'd rate as a 15, there's little nudity (one risky dance scene) and moderate swearing.

An all-round entertainer with fresh ideas for the Bollywood genre.

There's a lot going on in the movie so my tip is to write down some of the names so you can keep up with the pace and plot line.

Would recommend this film to friends and family.

There are only three songs and these are well choreographed.

I would rate this film higher if the characters were better rounded.

Looking forward to more feature films like these.

Thumbs up on this one!

The movie had better action sequences than I had expected. It also contained interesting twists along the way, some of which concluded in a very predictable manner though. If you enjoy a fast paced action thriller, this is a movie for you.

The story seems to be twice-told at first, but when we realize that the anti- terrorist cell's dissolution has been ordered in a weeks time, it truly becomes a do or die situation for the agents. The personal sacrifices, double agents, mistaken identities, high speed car chases, hot item songs, foreign locations and all other essentials of an action flick are neatly assembled.

My complaints are that the clichéd song dance routine taking place in the lead actor's imagination has continued to find its place. Zayed Khan is an overall disappointment. Pankaj Kapoor has emerged as a surprise package with an excellent performance.Sanjay Dutt is good as usual, strong performances by Abhishek and Suniel. Shilpa Shetty looks stunning and dresses accordingly.

Overall a well made film with great sound and special effects, slightly exaggerated action and a mass appeal due to its vast star cast.

This is the worst Michael-Bay-aping pseudo film I've ever seen. The acting is pathetic, the direction cretinous and the filming of the dance numbers downright criminal. The editor must have thought he was a wizard with all this frantic pasting, but it shows total disrespect for the dancers.The scene where the terrorist is eliminated somewhere in the open Canadian countryside is so unbelievably derivative (those RESERVOIR DOGS shots of guys clad in black advancing in slow-motion toward the camera)and ridiculous (the good guys seem to be impervious to bullets) it has to actually be promoted as a prime example of idiotic direction.And Sanjay Dutt must make a dramatic elephant out of the slightest existential fly. For the most undiscriminating audience only.

I was pleasantly surprised with this movie. I thought great,another macho,action- Indian flick, but was pleasantly surprised when I actually found myself enjoying it. The film is magnificently produced. The acting is outstanding and the narrative, unbelievably good. You could be fooled into thinking your were watching a Hollywood film, rather then an Indian one at times. The action scenes and special effects were amazingly realistic, proving that a lot of care and attentive details went into making this movie.

Abhishek Bachchan has proved his critics wrong and proudly displayed his acting heritage. Not only did he act good but came across very confident in his character, something that his earlier films lacked. Watch this space, the new king it seems has finally arrived. Zayed Khan also exceeded expectations and was enjoyable to watch. Sanjay Dutt was in top form as were the rest of the cast. Pankaj Kapoor was also brilliant and showed off his versatile acting range.

Although this film may not win any big awards it was thoroughly great to watch. The soundtrack was also hip and modern. All in all,this film comes highly recommended.

Dus released in 2005 directed by anubhav sinha is a good spy thriller with solid storyline and effective performances. Veteran pankaj kapur plays antagonist jamwal with ease, spontaneity and depth and proves why he is considered as a great actor. Rest performances are effective too. Sanjay dutt, shilpa shetty, abhishek bachchan, esha deol, sunil shetty, rajendra sethi and others deliver good performances. Dus specialty lies in unpredictable aspects. We don't know what happens next. Lots of material has been taken from the usual suspects, Hollywood thriller. Scene to scene transformation is the main aspect of the script. A must watch.

Movie start is descent, mid is more interesting and characters like Sanjay dutt and sunil shetty put more fun to it, said khan cute smile and innocent acting is superb but what is more worst is its ending , the end part of movie is no doubt pathetic as abishek (main actor ) has to leave the family behind.

Although the director / story writer could have made some changes to the air craft scene in which abishek was blown away due to bomb.

More importantly this movie song Dus bahane is superb and still worthy enough to be listened and enjoyed a lot . Deedar dy is also good song of Dus.

The movie plot has some loopholes but still this movie gives lot of fun , as Sanjay dutt, Pankaj kapoor , sunil Shetty acting is so cool & they worked very profesaionally

I am searching info regarding cast of Dus bahane song , specially its side female dancers but unable to find it.. I dint know why movie makers didnt mentioned its cast names of side models / dancers specially those appeared in famous song Dus bahane kar ke le gaye dil.

this is one of the worst bollywood movies i have ever seen.not only in the last few years but probably ever. the screenplay was awful.the plot had nothing new at all.everything that we have seen a hundred times. plus the ending is not so exiting either.well i can't help saying that i was more than surprised to see it rated so high.u gotta be kiddin me .start watching Hollywood originals people. the acting ; well u really can't blame the actors , except that they choose to work in this.the director had left them no choice.the characters were so unrealistic that they cudn't do much about it. watch it if u have got bored from counting stars.still think again ; continuing counting might be more fun.

I wasn't surprised that the movie was such a painful waste of 3 hours. What I don't understand is this! Why Bollywood movies take everything to emotional level and just make the whole thing a headache. Overpoured emotions in everything they do, every dialoge, every action is full of emotions even in a so called hi-fi action movie. Another thing I hate about Bollywood is that it has yet to come out of excessive and unnecessary use the computerization of actions and scenes. I just don't know why they unnecessarily put a loud music behind every scene which is done by one of those sentimental heroes and made the whole action modified by the computerization, it just makes it unbearable. I would rather keep the whole thing flow naturally and something people can relate to. I am sure lot of people like such a dreamy drama but at the end it just doesn't make sense at all. I can understand that they keep on making the stuff that sells, without worrying whether or not it makes sense. Good luck!

I have no idea what all of u people r saying!! Sure, Dus had it's share of flaws, but come on, the acting had 2 be an excellent part! I mean, look at Sanjay Dutt, what a performance!!!!! As Siddhant, he played the loving brother and tough anti-terrorist detective. His acting was one of the best I have ever seen! Another brilliant thing was the songs, especially Dus Bahane... so very stylish and brilliantly executed. Chham Se was a beautiful engagement song for all..I definitely do believe so! For those who don't normally watch thriller/ suspense/ cop movies, Dus is a movie that you will enjoy very much so, and some of the scenes will linger in your mind after the movie has ended...

The title takes a dig at itself. Movie is terrible. First half is boring, pretentious. I wonder what was canada police doing all time. The mission was controlled by six people without any help ?How?? Sunil shetty shooting three men while jumping through building glass? Sanjay dutt escapes without being noticed by anyone. And a lot more illogical scenes are there .Pankaj Kapoor was good, I mean really good there, but couldn't save an otherwise intolerable film.

i was looking forward to his movie unfortunately i was disappointed this was a great action flick when it came to the action but it's weakest point is relying on slow moments too much which hurts this movie a lot i loved Anubhav Sinha's Aapko Pehle Bhi Kahin Dehka Hain and Tum Bin but was very disappointed with this one how could this be an Anubhav Sinha film well since he started working with other producers unfortunately his movies just had that taste to it that this movie didn't have i hope that Tathastu is a good flick and i hope that after that he works with the same producers that he started his career with Dus was just bad unfortunately
