The Legend of Drona

To those folks who haven't watched this movie....please do NOT watch this movie. The thing which i do not understand IS that why do Indian directors lack the vision and imagination required to make a fantasy movie!!! I can't even give the movie some credits for a nice attempt because a decent attempt would have resulted in the movie ten times better then this one!! ZERO IN ACTING...ZERO IN COSTUMES...ZERO IN ANIMATION..ZERO IN ORIGINALITY..and the sets look so artificial that even a 2 year old can tell the difference.

There should be an option of rating 0/10 on IMDb,b'cause this movie deserves a BIG 0.

This is definitely most boring movie I have seen till date. Though Bachchans are having legendary status as far as acting is concern,but they don't have eye for good script,often miscalculate the effect of script, Drona -very good example of misjudgment by Bachchans.It is said that each and every movie signed by Abhishek first approved by his parents(Amitabh&Jaya).On paper story looks interesting,thrilling,action-packed but on screen its just opposite.

Only positive point in movie is Priyanka Chopra,she leaves her mark by strong performance.In acting Abhishek is very poor as alwayes. For Abhishek acting means blank face with minimal or no dialogs(I think he learned that from Ramgopal Varma in SARKAR). Yet he has to learn the facial expression in front of camera.

Its better to watch "Krissh" forth or fifth time than wasting money,mood & weekend on Drona

I totally disagree with the earlier comment made about the movie. I think its probably by one of the movie promoters. Drona is easily one of the worst movies in Indian history. I would never downgrade a movie but in this instance I feel obliged to save other people from watching an awfully terrible movie that lacks originality. From Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings to Heath Ledger role in Batman. They have copied everything and in the end come up with the worst movie. Even the music is pain to the ears, the location crap, the computer graphics too fake, the costumes a shame to the Indian film industry and finally an acting worst than first time auditions.

After the failure of 2050 Love Story. I was expecting the directors in Bolloywood wouldn't dare repeating mistake. But this one, to amaze me, went beyond all the limits of flops.

Abhishek, could not act, as he must have forgotten or director had strict warning for him not to act. Lot of things in the movie has no direct or indirect link to the main story.

Priyanka Chopra, I pity her. She did same mistake after 2050. But never expected from Abhishek to act in such movie. Well, everyone makes mistake. This was big mistake though.

I heard, The villain was overspent for appearance. But seriously it was the worst role he must have done. Too much over acting and too much non-sense.

Dare not watch alone.

A combination of a terrible film, sleep deprivation, my drivers holiday (Eid) and a couple of beers forced me to walk out of the film within 25 minutes. I had the same kind of foreboding within 5 minutes of the start as I had in Love Story 2050. The story, dialogue, acting, characters were all so terrible, poorly drawn out, stereotypical that I just couldn't bear to watch this one fully I walked out just as Kay Kay, who plays the villain, was introduced and hearing his hammy dialogue proved to be the straw that broke this camel's back. Subsequently, my wife, brother, mother etc watched it fully and assured me I did the right thing. Even the two points are only for the special effects that I didn't see (copied from a slew of Hollywood adventure films) and for Priyanka Chopra (who's entrance also I sadly missed).

Apparently Goldie has already decided that he's going to do a sequel. He may have trouble finding someone to bankroll it this time. Sorry for copping out, but I took instinctive evasive action just as a batsman instinctively dodges a bouncer to the head.
