Simply Perfect

Fantastic!

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Not a lot to add to the other horrific reviews, except an enormous disagreement about the performance of pretty boy Hrithik the Horrific. Would've been nice if someone told him this was a movie and not an Abercrombie and Fitch ad. His continual mugging for the camera and never-ending "blue steel" looks were almost too much to endure. During the Russian Roulette scene I was praying for the gun to go off when Ash was holding it on him. Oh, and Hrithik ... Vanilla Ice is calling and he wants his moves back. Collaborate and listen! Other than having Ash to look at for a bit, I certainly feel 2.5 hrs closer to the grave with nothing to show for it. This was one of the worst "action" movies I've ever seen.

I find the Dhoom 2 title outstanding. I was amazed by the amazing picture full of perfect effects, good music, typically neat Indian humor, eye-candy cast, stunning scenes and choreography. I don't understand all the negative reactions I've read. Yeah, the story would not make this film legendary, but I had fun and enjoyed every minute of it. And I was watching with subtitles! I haven't seen the first part and am relatively new consumer of the Bollywood production, but I have no objections, it greatly overcame my not anyhow low expectations. I would recommend this movie to anyone who's not looking for a serious drama or something deep enough to think, but a good neat movie you can rest at.

This film has a major lack of common sense and gravity. It's all gloss with gorgeous people, gorgeous locations, catchy songs, and a TERRIBLE script. It you're looking for the perfect popcorn flick, where you can just turn your brain off, this film is for you. It's basically the first film but glossier and bigger than life. As for the cast...Hrithik Roshan-If nothing else, watch the film for him. His performance was really natural, his dancing was once again AMAZING and he looks really hot. Mr.A was a pretty cool character.Aishwarya Rai-SO ANNOYING!! The worst acting I have ever seen! She was a major part in the MANY things that made this film stupid.Abhishek Bachchan-...boring...Uday Chopra-His job was to just act like a buffoon and he accomplished itBipash Basu-...I'm not exactly sure WHY she was in the film.

I really enjoyed this film, it had a lot of action, quite a bit of humor, and the actors/actresses did a pretty good job too! Being interested in cross-culture films (helps you get a little insight into cultural beliefs, interests, etc.), I asked several of my Hindi friends to recommend a cool Bollywood action film. While they recommended the first Dhoom, this was the only one I could readily get a hold of. I was impressed! The action was cool, fast, and not cheesy. The acting was pretty good too, not like some of the cheesy films Hollywood has been kicking out recently (I've seen some pretty bad films lately!). If I had to correlate this film to a US film, I'd probably say it was similar to MI:2 in many of its action sequences.The music was pretty upbeat and fun. That's one thing I know about the Hindi culture is that they like musical performances, and they even managed to weave it into this film without too much distraction. Sure, all the women were hot and the guys were beefed up (much more so than the average Indian, trust me), but that's what people want to see. We don't want to see overweight and ugly actors all wearing saris, we want what's in cultural style now.Awesome film, if this one wasn't as good as the first, then I definitely want to check that one out ASAP! So, if you want to see a very well done (and fun to watch) Hindi action flick, check it out; you won't be disappointed.
