Dhoom 2

Product description ------------------- Original Yashraj Films Blu-ray Disc Review ------ What takes the film to dizzy heights is the sequence of events that unravel at a feverish pace. Right from the start of the film [Hrithik's first heist in Namibia; the robbing of a crown from a moving train] to his next target [robbing a precious diamond from a museum in Mumbai] to the theft in Jamnagar [Hrithik and Ash come face to face for the first time], the film whets your appetite from the word 'Go'. In the first hour focuses on the cat-n-mouse game, the second hour changes tracks as it transforms into a love story. While the scenes between Uday and Bipasha [in a dual role] are cute, the ones between Hrithik and Ash build up slowly. Note the turning point in the tale -- the revolver sequence between Hrithik and Ash and the lip-to-lip kiss that ensues; it's an outstanding sequence from the writing, execution and performance point of view. The pre-climax -- the robbery of man-made gold coins -- as also the climax chase are breath-taking as well. DHOOM 2 is director Sanjay Gadhvi's finest effort so far. The execution of the subject is such, you just can't help get transported to a world of make-believe. Gadhvi has handled a number of sequences with omb. The Hrithik-Ash sequence mentioned above is one of them. The dialogue between Hrithik and Abhishek -- after they've known each other's true identities -- is another. The final scene of the enterprise is yet another sequence that indicates that the director has done his homework well. --platform47.com This Dhoom turns out to be bigger, better and bombastic than its prequel. It is essentially a cops and robbers story with some glamour and humour thrown in. In this tussle between cops and thieves, it is Love that wins in the end. After all, Aashiqon ka janaaza hai, zara Dhoom se niklega. You can skip a roller-coaster ride for a movie like this. And you won't miss a thrill. High speed chases, free-falls, pyrotechnics, death-defying stunts are all rolled together to give you goose bumps in every single reel of this 2.45 hr movie. And a lion's share of credit for this goes to Hrithik Roshan, without whom this movie would have been a soulless body. --platform47.com Dhoom 2 is full of style, skin show, bikes and action. It has all the ingredients of a big blockbuster as promised with mind-blowing s of a moving train in the Namibian desert. Hrithik Roshan s introduction scene is far superior to that of John Abraham in Dhoom. Coming to the performances, it is Hrithik Roshan all the way. In fact Dhoom 2 can be classified as a Hrithik film. He is the real scene-stealer - in fact you can t imagine any other actor carrying off the villain s role with such precision. He shines throughout the film and carries the entire film on his shoulders and takes it to an all-time high. If there s anyone who s bound to get the maximum applause and benefit from Dhoom 2, it is Hrithik. Abhishek is overshadowed by Hrithik s presence. Uday Chopra does well. Aishwarya Rai with her bronzed look dazzles and performs well and the dusky Bipasha also sizzles as the twin sister while as a cop she is okay. As for the music, while Pritam s score is fair, Salim-Suleiman s background music is splendid. --platform47.com P.when('A').execute(function(A) { A.on('a:expander:toggle_description:toggle:collapse', function(data) { window.scroll(0, data.expander.$expander[0].offsetTop-100); }); }); About the Actor --------------- Hrithik Roshan, fondly known as Duggu by his near and dear ones, was born into a filmi family on the 10th of January, 1974.
