The movie is good, nice message! Today's generation should watch this movie so they will know 'what mistakes not to do.'
I can see why many people hate this movie because they think it is a
sequel to Dombivli Fast. It is not a sequel at all!
Many people may not have even understood it properly because the message is conveyed in a completely different way than the first movie.
In short:
'Dombivli Fast' conveyed the message in a straight-forward manner, linear, putting the problems directly in front of the audience. While 'Dombivli Return' conveys the message in a dynamic and different way, keeping the audience surrounded by constantly changing and fast-paced storyline and scenes.
I won't spoil it here but such pacing and direction makes sense and you will also feel the same, if you have watched and understood the movie 'Inception' 😉 You will come to know about this at the climax of the movie.
'Dombivli Fast' was amazing, no doubt, but this one is also nice if you get what the movie is trying to say.
Yes, they could have cut short some songs and scenes in this one, but I think they wanted to portray the 'changed lifestyle' hence kept this stuff. The end message is really good. Many did not watch the movie till the end I suppose.
The subtle editing techniques, transitions and sound design used in this movie is really nice from an editor's perspective.
Everyone who did not like this movie much as compared to Dombivli Fast, I would suggest them to watch this one again to better understand it 😃
