Dhoom Machale

After Krissh and now Dhoom Hrithik Roshan is going to be the next superhero, the next superstar and the next big thing we could witness in the coming years.

Let me share with you my experience while watching the film. In india they say that the moment you hear the whistles with the entry of an actor, it shows he has arrived. Whistles are generally the term used with men,in this case I would beg to differ and say women;. The whistles were prominent, elongated and repetitive with appearance of actor on the screen especially in his cool original avatar of Aryan [the look being similar to the jonny player commercial he has done]

Well, you all must be wondering by now why am I not writing about any other thing in the film besides Mr. A [Junior Roshan], because rest everything looks insubstantial and inconsequential.

The film begins with a over the top of the train action sequence where Mr A has managed to rob the necklace by disguising as the owner of the necklace. The news of the same reaches the police trying to decode the case and trap the theif.
The two main police officials continue with Uday and Abhishek. Well I must mention here that Uday is great at lending the breather to the film through his amazing comic deliveries, not to mention the hilarious one liners written by the writer.
And then the two along with Bipasha basu figure out that the next theft is going to be in mumbai, and then begins the cat and mouse sequence to catch the theif, Mr A.

Aishwarya Rai too plays a thief in the film who has been trying to struggle through her thefts by using mr A name, and finally becomes his partner, and the two decide the do the next theft together.

well, the film is a superhit, we all know that with the packaging and everything, but its not a landmark film. Its not a film which will go down the history of films as one of the best action thriller writen directed [given the budget, the best stars, the best everything they had with them, THAT IS A SAD THING]. It will not even figure as the best film coming out of the yash raj camp, they have made better films with better scripts in a lesser budget than Dhoom 2. Infact dhoom 1 will be the choice of most of the cinemagoers, because it was a better screenplay, with more twists and turns,the adrenaline rush was sadly missing in this one, the songs were misplaced, some scenes are completely irrational[ like the action sequence where a black toy car is being used to steal the diamond, are the cops protecting the diamond so stupid that they can't see a big car passing through their legs in a big empty, clean room, also hrithik getups where he has a long hair and fairly the same face, the reasoning for aishwarya to get so surprised when she first time sees the origina hrithik near the beach was not very convincing. Infact they ignored the smaller details while looking at the bigger picture, or they got lost somewhere.

Which makes me think, why do most indian filmmakers get lost somewhere while making a big film? where they loose the basic thing called a screenplay and the script where as give us the best action and the best techniques to watch, latest gadgets, styling, grading and the rest of the things. But then when the engine is missing even the best and most expensive cars in the world can't run!!

Sadly that, engine missing case has been with lost of latest best looking cars, i mean films. Take a look at the latest big movies with big casts and big directors- DON[ 35 CRORES, A COMPLTELE 3 HOUR PLUS TRASH, WITH A WEAK NARRATIVE BUT LOT OF ATTENTION BEING GIVEN TO ACTION, STYLING, GRADING ETC, BUT THAT WOULDN'T REALLY HELP THE FILM, SADLY ITS ONE OF THE HIGHEST GROSSERS OF THE YEAR, WHICH SHOWS US THE STAR AND OVER HYPE SYSTEM WE HAVE SURROUNDEDE OURSELVES WITH, UMRAOJAAN, EVEN KRISSH HAD A LOOSE SCRIPT]

Which again makes me think that is just the commercial success important or the individual filmmakers are also responsible for making a great film, which they can look back at and feel great about.

Hollywood films, mission impossible, broken arrow, face off, charles angles, could be some examples of action,thrill oriented films which have managed to rake in the moolah and being great films to watch at the same time. why do we fail to do the same?
