Dhoom machale...not really !!













The racers are back again. The posters look stunning !! Dump the bond, its time for our power-packs ... its time for Dhoom !!!

My cousin Bharath gave a terrible review to this movie. I decided not to watch it. Then, Bipasha came in my dreams and asked me to watch it.

Evening show, Cauvery theater.

As the movie started off, I realized how wrong my cousin was. This was good stuff. Hrithik looked too good. His body looks so much like mine !! The heists he carried out were exciting to watch. Look more rationally and you'd call it 'crap'; but Hindi movies are not to be watched by those with a rational bent of mind.

Rimi Sen was a wasted character and I was thankful for that. Hey, where are the chicks ? Enter Bipasha, wow !! If police girls were really like this, I would have dumped Biotechnology and become a constable. More heists. This is a digestible movie. Why didn't my cousin like it ? Was he being over-critical ? And where the hell is Aishwarya ?

Enter Aishwarya !! Now the movie starts...or does it really ?


Aishwarya does not look good in the movie...full stop...end of discussion. Bipasha looks much better. Fine...Ash has shed her fat...but she does not look good. Enter Aishwarya and enter boredom. The movie comes to a stand still. No movement. Becomes a mega-serial. Weird things start happening. Location shifts to Brazil. Colorful Brazil. Yet another Bipasha here. Double acting ? But why ? And when is the next heist ? All everyone does is eat, sing and party. Hey, where's the theme ? Who cares....party without reason.

Finally...the last heist. Hey Aishwarya, who's side are you on ? She seems to change sides just like how she changes her boyfriends !! A bit of action...yeah...now we are seeing some good stuff...that's what you think...until you see the stylish charming Hrithik as a cook in a restaurant. What happened to the story ? Well, the director never promised us a story, did he ?


This movie is goofed up. Why are the Mumbai police on vigorous search for a criminal who has stolen antiquities in other countries, and has never entered Indian soil ? How does Hrithik survive ultimately ? The second half is way too horrible. Aishwarya bores us to death, Bipasha is wasted, Uday Chopra offers some compensation (coz of his clown acts), Abhishek looks nothing special, and Hrithik is the only prize you get for watching this movie. He looks good, and he has a unique charm he carries with him. The movie's messed up...and after the interval, you can see everyone in the theater moaning, children crying, adults crying, women scolding their husbands.

Yet another Hindi movie goes down the drain. And oh yeah, my cousin was right, this movie sucks !!
