The King is back and is doing what he does best.... playing the baddie. With this movie I can now scratch out item number 45 on my things-to-do-before-I-die-list -Watch a movie all by myself. I loved the movie and enjoyed every minute, going forward, I'll go see films all by myself, that way I don't have to cajole people to go with me and what makes the whole enterprise better is the fact that there is no need to co-ordinate with anyone, just me and my credit card will do fine, thank you very much.
Don2 is an absolutely slick and stylish movie, kudos to Farhan Akhtar. The film has the audience on the edge of their seats from the word go and maintains the tempo throughout. The movie has a script (not a very original one), but the action sequences and tongue in cheek dialogues make up for it.
SRK as Don exudes an aura of malice, a something evil and he does this with his eyes and smile, a stabbing look from him is enough to chill the soul. Boman Irani who usually maintains screen presence no matter who his co-stars are, seems ill at ease in this venture, accordingly Vardhan is reduced to a side kick. But then this is all about Don and the rest of the cast is just so the Don doesn't get bored and the sets look 'peopled'. Kunal Kapoor as Sameer Ali in a bit role is very convincing.
The romance between Roma and Don doesn't set the screen on fire because there is NO CHEMISTRY... please it is too tame... though I don't blame SRK he looked convincing enough, and there are moments where you think maybe, just maybe he does love her, but Priyanka sadly fails...The music is forgettable which is really surprising as the last Don movie had great songs. All in all if you are a SRK fan, go and watch it for him, for he is in his element!!!
