    One of the best action movie from Bollywood. U cannot imagine anyone else portraying Don except SRK.

    I first saw this in Gaiety, Bandra, when it first released in Dec 2011. Saw this with my dad and entire family, first day first show.

    The theatre was jam packed n the crowds went berserk, clapping n whistling.

    I don't know why my earlier review got deleted.

    Writing this again aft revisiting few days back.

    The movie is a direct sequel to Don (2006) and the story takes place 5 years after the events of the previous film.

    The opening sequence is loaded with action n SRK gave a solid performance. He looked cool with his long hair.

    The movie has ample amount of action, the locations r amazing, the direction n editing top notch.

    The hand to hand combat n the fight with the villain Jabbar is amazeballs.

    Jabbar is an intimidating villain.

    The initial prison bathroom action sequence is lifted from Michael Jai White's Blood n Bone.

    Heard they are planning part 3 without SRK.

    Will probably skip part 3.

    Don 2 is the movie to watch.

    Don 2 was an amazing movie. Great acting by Shahrukh Khan probably one of his best acting. A well directed movie my Farhan Akhtar. The dialogs were great. The storyline was sometimes predictable but at the end it totally changes. It was a slick movie. When I watched the movie I thought I was watching a Hollywood movie. Shahrukh Khan is the only actor who can play Don cause he has that style the charisma and everything that u need in an underworld king who wants to be the king of Europe. Boman Irani plays the role of Vardhan really well. I think they should make Don 3 with a different location and with even better storyline. From my side i would give 7/10.

    Decent Flick

    Don 2 directed by Farhan Akhtar is a decent flick.

    The movie had a great start,absorbing middle and a bad ending.

    Even the duration of the movie is quite long with some unnecessary scenes which could have been avoided.

    The movie featuring Shahrukh Khan who gives a fine performance along with Priyanka Chopra who is good too.But the scene stealer were Boman Irani and Nawab Shah who perform superbly.Om Puri's character must be shelved off in Don 3.Lara Dutta is okay.Kunal Kapoor is subtle.

    The action scenes have been performed very well.

    The locales of Germany and Zurich have been captured very well.

    The music is passable.

    The story is okay.

    The screenplay is half-baked.

    All in all,Don 2 is a decent flick!

    Decent one time watch

    With all it's twists and turns, Don 2 marks a decent end to the year for Bollywood. The movie's strengths are action, plot twists and it's faced paced storyline which always keeps you at the edge of your seat.

    Yes Don 2, does borrow from some Hollywood flicks like Mission Impossible, but it's neatly made and the plot fits in like a jigsaw puzzle at the end of the movie.

    The only negatives were the touch of grey given to Don's character and the love story angle towards the end. A completely cold hearted Don, who's way beyond meaningless things such as love would have been more appreciated. The character could have been made much darker, which would have appealed more to the audience, but then again it's a Hindi flick, so such things are expected.

    There are a few holes in the plot, but after all it's a Bollywood flick and no one expects it to be perfect.

    I would say Don 2 is a decent one time watch and do watch it at the theaters as the cinematography is brilliant.

    What a Movie

    Great movie seen in Bollywood as action, thrill, story line, direction, suspense all along. overall Power-packed performance by Shahrukh Khan. Truly the "KING IS BACK". People said that no-one could make a better Don than the man himself, Amitabh Bachchan. However, I would like to disagree. Shahrukh is the only actor of todays time that could ever make it better than the original. His style, charisma and witty remarks make it all the more appealing. Farhan Akhtar's superb directing made this film epic! There are no gaps, no over-the-top parts. As a director Farhan's best film ever. Film's background score is stunning. But the songs are not pretty good. The film's visual effects is better than MI-4, Ra.One, Robot, Krissh. It's stunning and well shot. The special effects add a special flavor to the film which makes it even more delicious. Each and every character in this film is perfect. But in some portion it remembers me Death Race2, specially in Jail. Anyway best movie of the year.
