Don 2

Don 2, the sequel to Don starts from where the prequel ended.Though the story is surreal, impractical and seems like fantasy, the director gives it a slick treatment.It doesn't let go, even for a moment. The plot is stylishly crafted,with every twist and turn falling into place. Farhan Akhtar yet again proves that he is the most stylish film maker of recent times. The first half may seem cold in comparison with the 2nd, as the 2nd half takes the film onto a different level and keeps you on the edge of the seats.The script will mostly appeal to the urban crowd who are absolutely hooked onto international thrillers. The twists and turns in the 2nd hour may not be totally understandable to the average viewer.

Action is the USP of Farhan Akhtar's film. The chases, the fights, the destructions, escapes were spectacular and have all been done at par with International Standards.The car chase between Priyanka and Shah Rukh was unbelievable.The cinematography was top notch, be it the indoor or the outdoor shots. The locations in Berlin, Zurich, Malaysia & Thailand, where it was shot completely came alive. The stylization & look for every actor was so well defined.

Shah Rukh Khan uses all his charisma & attitude and woos the audience with his charm. He is the the lifeline of the movie.And this is definitely amongst his best works till date. Priyanka Chopra, Boman Irani,Om Puri, Sahil Shroff, Kunal Kapoor, Alyy Khan & Nawab Shah were very very good in their respective parts. Lara Dutta looks glamorous but has nothing else to do.Shah Rukh Khan & Priyanka Chopra's chemistry for those 5 minutes was crackling.

Like a spot on the moon, the cameo by Hrithik Roshan was unnecessary & forced. Hrithik looked awesome but playing Shah Rukh's masked avatar was totally bizarre. As their height, voice and body do not share any damn similarity.

What makes Don 2 a winner is,the public cheers every time a task is accomplished by Don. This is indeed credible because Don, after all, is a negative character.

Special mention is the last scene where Shah Rukh Khan rides a bike and passes on a bridge over the French Riveira, Oh My God-he has never looked so handsome before. All will definitely skip a heart beat. Don 2 ends with the promise of Don 3. Mr.Akhtar-we are waiting.

I first saw this in Gaiety, Bandra, when it first released in Dec 2011. Saw this with my dad and entire family, first day first show.

The theatre was jam packed n the crowds went berserk, clapping n whistling.

I don't know why my earlier review got deleted.

Writing this again aft revisiting few days back.

The movie is a direct sequel to Don (2006) and the story takes place 5 years after the events of the previous film.

The opening sequence is loaded with action n SRK gave a solid performance. He looked cool with his long hair.

The movie has ample amount of action, the locations r amazing, the direction n editing top notch.

The hand to hand combat n the fight with the villain Jabbar is amazeballs.

Jabbar is an intimidating villain.

The initial prison bathroom action sequence is lifted from Michael Jai White's Blood n Bone.

Heard they are planning part 3 without SRK.

Will probably skip part 3.

Don 2 directed by Farhan Akhtar is a decent flick.

The movie had a great start,absorbing middle and a bad ending.

Even the duration of the movie is quite long with some unnecessary scenes which could have been avoided.

The movie featuring Shahrukh Khan who gives a fine performance along with Priyanka Chopra who is good too.But the scene stealer were Boman Irani and Nawab Shah who perform superbly.Om Puri's character must be shelved off in Don 3.Lara Dutta is okay.Kunal Kapoor is subtle.

The action scenes have been performed very well.

The locales of Germany and Zurich have been captured very well.

The music is passable.

The story is okay.

The screenplay is half-baked.

All in all,Don 2 is a decent flick!

With all it's twists and turns, Don 2 marks a decent end to the year for Bollywood. The movie's strengths are action, plot twists and it's faced paced storyline which always keeps you at the edge of your seat.

Yes Don 2, does borrow from some Hollywood flicks like Mission Impossible, but it's neatly made and the plot fits in like a jigsaw puzzle at the end of the movie.

The only negatives were the touch of grey given to Don's character and the love story angle towards the end. A completely cold hearted Don, who's way beyond meaningless things such as love would have been more appreciated. The character could have been made much darker, which would have appealed more to the audience, but then again it's a Hindi flick, so such things are expected.

There are a few holes in the plot, but after all it's a Bollywood flick and no one expects it to be perfect.

I would say Don 2 is a decent one time watch and do watch it at the theaters as the cinematography is brilliant.
