    Don't Underestimate Dhoom

    I have seen many stupid things in Hollywood movies too like riding bikes and cars on a rope. Then why don't people underestimate those movies? why only Bollywood? funny thing is its all the Indians that underestimate our movies. No Wonder India Is Still Like This!!! No Unity. All of the Fast and Furious movies define all of the gravity laws and physics. Why doesn't people have any problem with that? Is it because they think white people make the best movies. F**k no. White people make the best character movies like Forrest Gump, Cast Away, The Godfather. BUT WHEN IT COMES TO ACTION MOVIES, BOLLYWOOD AND Hollywood ARE THE SAME STILL. Its just that Hollywood has better technologies to make a good looking action film. Transformers is as stupid movies can get to and they call it realistic. SO DON'T TELL ME Hollywood ACTION IS ANY BETTER!!!!

    The master does it again.

    I haven't been a big fan of the Dhoom series. So I wasn't sure how better it could be from the other two. My instincts told me that I had to trust the master's instincts, for the master has an incredible knack of getting the best out of his directors. After all, he has delivered every time in different conditions as in '1947 Earth', 'Ghajini' and '3 Idiots'. A little tentative, I finished my cigarette and walked into the auditorium. To my surprise, I found myself transported to an amazing fantasy world. There are inescapable nods to the larger than life aerobatics and fanciful feats of Salman Bhai and Rajnikanth.

    I am surprised that naysayers are calling it a copy of The Prestige. Didn't the same people call Ghajini a copy of Memento and Munnabhai a copy of Patch Adams? The real rip-offs are movies like Bheja Fry, Criminal (copy of The Fugitive), Zeher (from Out of Time), Emraan Hashmi's The Train (copied from Derailed) etc.

    How can I end the review without commenting on the master's look? His physique is well-chiseled and toned in need of the character -- a big nod of approval from our generation of fitness freaks. His hairdos are always talked about and this time he keeps it subtle, yet a well-groomed look.

    As an actor, Aamir shines and he shines well. It sounds like a cliché but he gives another career-best performance. His passion for his craft is highly commendable. Uday Chopra is cheery and respectfully renders himself to the sidelines. Abhishek Bachchan broods a little too much but is okay at times. He doesn't have the pull to make a 'massy' entry on rickshaw. The young lad Siddharth Nigam is brilliant. It's a treat to see Jaggu Dada (Jackie Shroff). He fits in so easily to his character. As much as I enjoyed the first time, on the second viewing it got even better. All is indeed well.

    Cinematic blast

    Inability to repay his loans, causes a man to commit suicide in front of his son who vows to take down the bank by using his skills as a circus trickster in order to perform a series of spectacular heists.

    The combination of a potent storyline with first class visuals are enough to make this stand out and make for a mighty experience. The above aside, there is a strong moral involved. Whilst we can empathise with the main character and his quest for vengeance, there comes a time when we can realise that repetition of crime committing is not OK, and as the climax approaches this dilemma will become stronger by the minute.

    Empathy for the prosecution as well as sympathy for the offender will raise tension levels and adding some spectacular circus treats, chase scenes, dancing as well as the conquest for a woman worth loving, the audience's in for a treat.

    Entertainer of the year

    An out and out entertainer. Vijay Krishna Acharya makes no mistakes this time and boasts this highly awaited franchise with an engaging script that makes the audience guessing till the very end. Death defying stunts especially with those bikes. Catchy dialogues. Spectacular sets that makes Dhoom: 3 a pulse rising chilling cop thief adventure that has a highly satisfying and spectacularly dazzling individual part of Aamir Khan that stays with you for long and asks repeat viewing. Vijay Krishna Acharya sticks to the basics shows his outmost loyalty to the genre dosen,t go for any layers and while he makes us jump out of our seats with those action shocks draws out those soft funny moments with finesse and even easily manages a touch of romance into the yarn with commendable ease. Technicalities are first rate. Sudeep Chatterjee cinematography is a treat to the eye. Editing by Ritesh Soni is crisp. Sumit Basu's production designing, Adri Siriwatt art direction is spectacular. Manoshi Nath, Rushi Sharma and Anaita Shroff costume designing is chic. Pritam Chakraborty music adds memento to the adrenaline rush. Title track, 'malang' and 'kamli' are a take home. Aamir Khan: you know how serious he is about his choices. And you know how really he works hard on his characters he plays. In Dhoom: 3 Aamir is in great shape and gives a brilliantly mature performance. His finesse to enter into the skin of the character is well known but here he as an actor/performer does to the franchise what a superstar should do- he demands a repeat viewing and that is the biggest USP of this installment. His fans and audience in general will go gaga. Katrina Kaif: boy she was never so delicious. The lass who has grown up tremendously as an actress has worked a lot for this and it shows. In 'Kamli' Katrina is bewitchingly sexy. Truly it's impossible to shift your eyes from her. Fabulous. Abhishek Bachchan: is in complete element and seems to be enjoying the fun. Highly entertaining. Uday Chopra: is very funny and successfully makes yo

    Amir Ends the year with A Dhoom

    Considering the trends with which bollywood movies are becoming hit though they lack a good story or script i was hoping for a disappointment and i went in with low expectations. Well, definitely an all round entertainer Dhoom 3 made me glad and hopeful for the franchise. And yes definitely the best in the series.

    Though the songs were disappointing except the first song (not the tap dance), otherwise i was rather engaged well into the stories and surprised with the twist in betweens.

    Here is my rating for the movie: Acting - Okay, Songs - Could have been better, Direction - Good, Story - Great, Choreography - Ohhhh What A Katrina!!!!!

    I will definitely watch again and soon.
