Dhoom 3 Movie Review :)

Dhoom 3 . The third installment of Dhoom Series . The Yash Raj films Rojgar Yojna Karyakram scheme developed for Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Kapoor .

Lots of expectations . whether it will cross chennai express collections or will it break all time records . I am into this conclusion that the collections of a film doesn't make it good or bad . The content is the only thing which makes  a film good .

Dhoom 3 starts with Amir (Sahir) as a child and his dad is apna jaggu dada aka Jackie Shroff . They have a circus company called The Great Indian Circus . Jaggu dies Amir cries and after that it's all inki pinki ponki ;) I am not telling you the story as it might turn into a spoiler . It will snatch whatever little bits of interesting things in the film when you watch .

I will tell you what worked for me .

1. Amir Khan
2. Amir Khan
3. Amir Khan
4. Amir Khan
5. Amir Khan
>..... Amir Khan

7. The graphics of the bike changing into a water bike and few more transformations of the bike here and there according to the scene .

8 . Interval Scene .

It's as simple as that . Let it be his dance , action sequence or his portrayal of his character . He impresses . If Amir wasn't there I wouldn't have even watched this film. That's a different story altogether

Now let me explain in detail what didn't work for me or for others also (I have seen people disappointed while leaving . )

1. The opening introduction of Amir Khan is not very spectacular but interesting . What would have made more engaging is if they had showed us how he robs the banks . All we are made to watch is how he runs after the robbery .

2. Then there is this spectacular introduction of Uday Chopra and Abhishek Bachchan with a kollywood/tollywood/sandalwood mashup of action sequence .  You can see even a bit of bad boys 2 scene in this fight sequence . This is damn confusing whether they were making a spoof of tamil/telugu movie action sequences or where they seriously trying it out . It seems even the makers were not clear how to project it . It's damn hilarious as well as horrendous .

2a) These abhi and uday are shown as two cops from India who are flown to chicago to solve a robbery case just because the robber wrote something in Hindi . That's it ? That's the reason you fly down two cops from India  . Chicago police are dumb and they don't have a translator ?

3. Katrina Kaif Kapoor ? She is like a mere prop in this whole circus . she has three songs to dance , three scenes to act . That's it . She danced well in the Kamli song .

4. Talking about songs in point 3 . The songs are not upto the mark . No .. I said they are bad and they are bad .

5. The action sequence are a bit let down . Well I can digest the hero thumping down a baddie and the baddie bouncing off the ground like a wall but what I couldn't digest is Amir riding a bike on a rope during one of his escapades . Rope ? Seriously dude ? Then there is a train coming and if Amir doesn't go in time across the rope the train would hit him . Now I wonder how come the driver of the train doesn't even try to apply brakes . considering its in chicago and not India .  Amir is sensible and I somehow can't accept him doing all these .

6. There is a particular fight sequence which you must have watched in the trailers . Amir hitting Abhi baby with a rod while riding on a bike . in that fight sequence somehow Amir beats abhi to the ground and he almost comes to kill him but stops at the end . My reaction was like " Oh No , he should have killed . Now there will be Dhoom 4 under the Yashraj Rojgar Yojana scheme for Abhi baby and Uday Kapoor .

7 . The climax fight is stretched over too much . There is one particular sequence where cars bang in to each other and fly off to land with a bang . You can see very clearly the empty cars getting blasted . Too much of taking your audience for granted . Not one car , not two but all the cars are empty . could have done some additional vfx .

8. There is another scene where abhishek bachchan and amir become friends . they keep meeting at a theme park . This particular scene abhishek says something about katrina (alia is her name while uday chopra is ali .. what a coincidence i must say) . Amir gets angry and so does abhishek . so amir comes to make peace with him . I think this is also meant to be a spoof on article 377 . They were literally acting like two gays . (I have nothing against gays so don't file a defamation case on me) I am just saying  .

SPOILER AHEAD (Read at your own risk of destroying the only interesting suspense factor of this film )

9 . Amir plays Sahir and Samar . Yes you read it right . He plays duel roles and brothers . Now , Samar is little introvert and has a stammering problem . He is Super Smart but because he is the one who plans all the robberies . The world doesn't know that there are two amir khans . No body except both amirs know about this . So , when Abhi baby meets Samar and befriends him in order to bring him in to confess to the crimes , he tell Samar that Alia (Katrina) is attracted to Sahir . Now that should spark a doubt in Samar's brain considering he is super smart . That doesn't happen and he falls to the prey . come on .. it's not happening .

10 . The climax is very absurd and very big disappointment . Watch it to go through the disappointment .

Abhishek and Uday are real dummies in all terms and Amir Khan steals the show with whatever he does  .

If you are a real die hard fan of Amir , If you have nothing else to spend your money on , if you are brave enough to watch Abhishek and Uday kapoor together on screen on the same frame , if you are okay with copycat action sequences , if you have fought with your girlfriend/wife and wanna take revenge . ... Please book the tickets right now .. Book at Imax for 900 if the intensity of the revenge is high .
