... View MorePeople are voting emotionally.
... View MoreIt is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.
... View MoreThe movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.
... View MoreThe makers taking cue from "Munnabhai" and "Golmaal" could have taken forward "Dhamaal" as a franchise instead of an sequel for better creative and revenue proposition. The good news is the new "Dhamaal" has good moments in terms of fresh gags, comic timings and situational comedy. The four jokers namely Ritesh D, Arshad W, Javed F and Aashish C are usual reliable, dependable. Kangana tries her hand at comedy and does a fair job. Mallika joins the bandwagon and is not too bad either considering she does "Sheela meets Munni" in an attempt to create item song of 2011 with "Jalebi Bai". Sanjay Baba is as usual, in form. Romantic track between Ritesh & Kangana lacks chemistry. Sanjay & Mallika's track is nonchalant. Aashish C makeover is detesting. Javed J brings in a few original one-liners. Zakir Hussain presence can be timed in seconds. There is only song which stands out, rest are passable. In the second half, the flow loses steam and better writing was warranted. Verdict: "Dhamaal" was certainly few notches above. The audience expected a sequel to surpass the previous outing and sadly "Double Dhamaal" fails miserably.
... View MoreI have been a little disappointed in the past with sequels to comedies; that include Hangover 2 and Bheja Fry 2. They problem with some has been the utter similarity to earlier part or complete disparity. Double dhamaal has retained the continuity and still has a difference and fresh view, and that makes it better sequel. Story takes up from where the first movie ended. Some reviews say that first movie was better and this one is totally different and thus a drag on the franchise. I say that if it had been a similar story, like in Hangover 2, same reviewers would have then disregarded this movie as a total rip. The plot, although shallow, is the logical extension to the earlier started story. And no one promised that it was to be an intellect's movie. If you are OK with Singh is King(No similarity) then what is wrong with this plot. Everyone has done a good job at portraying the characters. One problem with the screenplay is Sanjay Dutt's absence in comedy scenes; or maybe thats the scriptwriter's issue. Sanjay Dutt has portrayed the ever winning con-man and has close to zero screen time in comedy scenes. Baman(Ashish) has done a great job at playing a sleazy, nymphomaniac girl. Movie does not have as much skin-show as one would expect thanks to Mallika. The item song "Jalebi Bai" is the only time that you get to see the Mallika as what people pay to come watch her for. Kangna has improved a bit after Tanu weds Manu though she has little to do. Her role is dispensable and she serves as just eye candy and in a couple of situations a center piece. Although the last quarter of the movie is a bit dragging, with oodles of wisecracks this sequel will give you a lot of funny moments.

View MoreDouble Dhammal ==============Director :Indra Kumar Music :Anand Raj Anand Starring : Sanjay Dutt, Ritesh Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi, Javed Jaffery, Ashish Choudhary, Kangna Ranaut and Mallika Sherawat.Movie Review : 2 Star : Double Dhaamal is NOT Double Dhamaal. ============the 1st part was executed much better. There are some scenes that make you laugh . But most of the other comedy scenes are double meaning and are loud. There is no new treatment given to the movie.Indra Kumar was top of the directory during 80's and 90's with his hits like Beta , Dil , Ishq . expectations were high but it didn't worked out in his favor.Aanand Raj Aanand has given good music. Even he is one of the popular music directors from the 80' 90's like TridevMusic Review : 3 star : Music is Good . There are some songs which will be diffidently played by DJ's . Good dance numbers. ============My Fav Pick are :1. Chak Kudiye by Mikka : Rap and a mixture of Bhangra. 2. Jalebi Bai : Item number by Mallika . everyone is going to compare Jalebi bai with other item number songs like Sheela and munni songs.There are total of 4 songs1. Chal Kudie : **** ( 4 star ) Anand Raj Anand & Mika Singh2. Chal Kudie (Remix): ** ( 2 star ) Anand Raj Anand & Mika Singh3.Chill Maro **** ( 4 star ) Mika Singh4.Chill Maro (Remix) **( 2 star ) Mika Singh5.Jalebi Bai **** ( 4 star ) Ritu Pathak6.Oye Oye **( 2 star ) Sunidhi Chauhan7.Oye Oye Remix * ( 1 star ) Sunidhi ChauhanMore information : Don't miss out the 1st part "Dhammal" (2007) also directed by the same directory Indra kumar .Other Movies directed by Indra Kumar : Beta , Ishq , Dil Music directed by Aanand Raj aanand in other movies : Tridev , Kaante, Major Saab , Musafir , Kaal , no problems etc
... View MoreThe original Dhamaal was a rip off from an assortment of Hollywood releases but still it was one of the best comedies i have seen.Double Dhamaal is simply another worthless & disappointing sequel like Bheja Fry 2.In this installment the idiot foursome is back and try to take revenge against Kabir(Sanjay Dutt)as now he is a rich conman.The plot moves from India to Macau in the second half without any improvement.The jokes & gags get repetitive and the chemistry between the leads is missing which made Dhamaal such fun.Javed Jaffrey is funny in parts while Ashish Chaudhury is simply irritating to watch.The other two leads Arshad & Riteish had been doing these same stupid roles from the onset of their careers and sleepwalk through their roles.Sanjay Dutt looks lost while seeing Kangana & Mallika act we realize why there weren't any female leads in the original Dhamaal.It would have been much better had they only been used for the item numbers.In short the cinematography,music,plot has got nothing new to offer & though there are some funny moments they are few & far in between so at more than two hours it gets bland & boring.Avoid this if you value your time & only if you are desperate to watch it rent a DVD.
