No reason to rate it more then 5. The film's basic plot is a total copy of Christopher Nolan's PRESTIGE. No wonders why Aamir Khan did the film. His double role was more of comedy then for what it was suppose to be. The other two actors areNo reason to rate it more then 5. The film's basic plot is a total copy of Christopher Nolan's PRESTIGE. No wonders why Aamir Khan did the film. His double role was more of comedy then for what it was suppose to be. The other two actors are not worthy as usual. Acharya might have thought that Indian never watch Hollywood films but he should have thought that the film from which he copied was a hit film world wide.… Expand

The Great Indian Bollywood Circus! Formulaic but Spectacular & Extremely Watchable [3/5]

It’s not very hard to predict what’s in store for you, if you have booked your tickets to take a roller-coaster ride in the latest & the thirdThe Great Indian Bollywood Circus! Formulaic but Spectacular & Extremely Watchable [3/5]

It’s not very hard to predict what’s in store for you, if you have booked your tickets to take a roller-coaster ride in the latest & the third installment of Bollywood’s first of a kind film-franchise DHOOM: 3. High octane action, vrooming bikes, eye-catching locales, brilliantly choreographed song & dance sequences, fantastic production design & twists in the tale that you can only see it coming just a few moments before it actually comes. So, what are the additional elements that make YashRaj Film’s DHOOM 3 an extremely watchable action thriller, better and bigger than the previous two installments?

Written & directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya, DHOOM: 3 is the most spectacular presentation of all in the series, one would never question that, but it’s the writing and the performances [I desperately wanted it to make singular but then you’ll agree to it after watching it] that take it to another level.

Set in Chicago, story takes you back in 90’s when the owner of ‘the great Indian circus’ [Jackie Shroff in a delightful cameo] kills himself after losing his battle to save the property from financial crisis. Years later, his only son Sahir [Aamir Khan standing tall as a towering inferno] decides to bring the Bank responsible for his father’s death down all in the dust by constantly robbing all its branches. With no valid logic behind, ACP Jai Dixit [Abhishek Bachchan in his one-expression mode] & his ‘still irritating’ associate Ali Akbar from Nagpada [who else?? The ‘Uday Chopra’] are called in to help the Chicago Police Department. Rest is the thrilling cat-and-mouse chase sequences with good amount of bike-stunts, an unpredictable pinch of emotions and a satisfying surprise in the box that I wish I could tell you more about.

Though the story seems & is very filmy, formulaic and borrowed straight from some late 70’s vengeance potboilers, the surprise in the box alone keeps you thoroughly engaged and entertained. Till the time it reaches you from various sources, I don’t want to be the spoiler. All I can say is it brings lots of emotions on the board and in a very well executed manner. Keep guessing!

Of the cast, let’s talk about Katrina first. She’s sexy, sensuous & stunning as all the Dhoom girls in the past. Though the writing doesn’t provide her a good meaty role, watch her introduction scene in the ‘Kamli’ song and as briefed by the character of Aamir in the film, you are bound to not take off your eyes from her for once. What an electrifying appearance!

Same goes with Aamir. The certain amount of charisma and the sincerity in the performance that he brings with himself is totally infectious. He sets screen on fire in the magical & the magnificent ‘Malang’ song. Look at the kind of effort he makes to meet the expectations par level to the new generation in industry. Commendable job! This is the most commercial performance of his after GHAJINI.

In a whole 3 hours of duration, it is not plausible that you do not get carried away with some really putting off sequences like the typical ‘Uday Chopra’ comical scenes, disregard of a good mix of logic in the screenplay and a hurriedly conceptualized love-angle between Katrina & Aamir! But the grand canvas, great production quality, good performance and the surprise element compensate for the most of it. If you love ‘no logic’ formula Bollywood, you will love it more! [3/5]… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If you've seen Chris Nolan's 'The Prestige' you will definitely feel at home because this movie is a complete rip-off of a very good film. Don't bother watching the movie for its action sequences or for the heroine because both of the above mentioned essential ingredients are missing.
Katrina has very minor role and all of the stunts manage to defy the laws of this universe. If you're into those sort of things then you'll love it! There's no harm in giving it a try.… Expand

A very silly action movie that can keep you sort of occupied for more than two and a half hours. It also tries to be funny; it fails at that. It tries to be thought-provoking; it blows at that.

It tries to be thought-provoking; it blows at that. It's very equal to the quality of the second Dhoom movie; while the second one has bad acting and bad writing and is kind of cheesy; the third one... has bad acting and bad writing and is kind of cheesy.… Expand
