Dus

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!

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!

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!

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.

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.
