Any Time Better than Ra One , This in any case you all might know before reading this review. Don 2 , basically riding on the Salim-Javed created plot and star power of SRK. Farhan Akthar’s previous venture in DON 1 is anytime better than this version.
Following are the positives of DON 1 which has not been carried out in second part which is well say negatives of DON 2.
The scope of SRK character was huge in DON 1 unlike now. The characterization and screenplay gave ample acting scopes to all the characters which are not the case now. The dialogues where natural and not artificial (at least in some cases) in DON 1.
The plot revolves around multiple places and has scope for chase and seat edge stuns which I missed in DON 2 (Particularly in second half where almost entire plot runs in a building).
Theme music has been maintained giving less scope for any new. When compared to Hollywood flicks running as sequels one might find newness in music apart from theme music. This I feel it’s a lag here.
DON 2 basically revolves around berlin and zurich based on a bank robbery part which is as similar to Bank Job and Mangatha. A big negative here.
My logical sense differs to understand the logic behind a thief being left out for helping the COP.
Stuns are great , editing and cinematography was decent. PC acted well but her style and walk reminded us more of Angelina Jolie.[This line was said by ARUN. I give full Credits to Arun]] Her so called Romantic or ‘Feeling-wala’ scenes were stupid at least for I-am to say.
Apart from PC and SRK none , literally none had anything to play for. The Thrilling suspense of DON in DON 1 was missing here.
Cameo of a Superstar (atleast his Face) was inspiring and thrilling for me.
Lot of Continuity mistakes which should have overdone atleast while editing. This shows the movie was in hurry to be released. Couple of examples are scene where PC and SRK ‘s Close up shot and in a bomb sequence.
A movie shall run only for DON plot and SRK charisma , nothing else in a much hyped movie.
I ll Not give more than 2.5 out of 5.
The rating and interest can go way beyond 4 and above only if you are a SRK Fanatic.
PS:P had nice time watching the movie with Sound and ARUN
