Don: the chase begins again
So lot of "critics"(read dumb rediff reviewers) rated the movie as a bad one... but was the movie really that bad?
When I went to see the movie :
1. I wasn't expecting too much new stuff in the movie.
2. I knew it was not made to be sent for oscars or to get lot of critical acclaim...
3. I was just looking for timepass/masala.
What I found/did:
1. The original 'Don' was a movie filled with 'filmy' scenes.. and so was this one.
2. I did not try to compare this one to the original. If somebody really wants to compare heroes and thinks shah rukh is big '-', then priyanka is a big '+'. :)
Remember the first one: When Jasjit(Pran) gets out of the jail, he walks past Deepu & Munni's school; and when Vijay hides in Pran's house, that house is also located in the same gully as the jail.... so jail/house/school all within 100 feet of each other... what a colony.. ekdam filmy :)
And for the latest one: I keep hearing that Shah rukh couldn't act serious like Amitabh.. it is just by design...
My point is: both movies are equally fun... so just stop being a critic and watch it for timepass... and you'll enjoy it.
3. And some really energetic dance numbers- I thought Shah rukh's dance in 'khaike paan bane ras wala' is almost as good as Chiranjeevi's dance :)
What could have been better:
Shah rukh's acting in some patches. To make up for that, he put in so much energy into dances.
And as soon as I can, I want to get a Don kind-of shirt and tie combo, when US retailers start selling my size shirts :)
