Sexylocher Masterful Movie

Mischa Redfern I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

Paynbob It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

DG_Boy Awesome film.I love it and one of my favourite film.Direction was good from farhan akhtar.The screenplay was good.The location and cinematography were good.And awesome awesome and terrific dialouges.Loved the dialouges man.All the dialouges were terrific.The editing was awesome.The movie is a little long but I swear not even a second I feeled bored.The movie rocks from start till end.The suspense was awesome.Better than amitabh don.The songs were awesome and nice.The acting was terrific from King Khan (Srk).This kinda roles suits to him and he should do more movies like and he he done like don 2 and raees both of these were awesome.Priyanka Chopra and Lara dutta acted good.kareena kapoor was OK in her small role.Overall an awesome film to come out from bollywood.I am waiting for don 3 because don 2 has already released and it's awesome.A must watch.

shaanmathpal First things first,let me tell u that I did not like the Original DON(1978) that much.It was good in parts but it was only the Aura of AB with the music that actually pulled it off.If the same story had been reused,the movie would have ended up being a disaster.But,I guess Farhan Akthar does a great job in this movie.Yes,the beginning is a bit slow but he more than makes up for it by the time the movie ends.Shah Rukh is incredible as DON and the others do their job well.The music is good(A special mention to the Background track...its incredible..).And watch out for the climax...Pros:1)Great acting by Shah Rukh2)Amazing cinematography (Everything looks classy and stylish..just notice the way Shah Rukh wears his tie!)3)A nice racy background scoreCons:1)Vijay part is quiet boring2)Jasjit's (Arjun Rampal) role wasn't required if u ask me..Overall,a great entertainer and worth the wait..!

Zentaurion Don is the movie that shows Shah Rukh Khan at the top of his game. After having already played numerous memorable characters, he has taken the role of DON and made it his own, with shades of many of his previous memorable roles but given a megawatt jolt. His inexhaustible charisma lights up the biggest larger-than-life character in the history of Hindi cinema.Farhan Akhtar demonstrates again why he is one of the most promising directors in Bollywood. He has covered every aspect of the movie with brilliant poise and delivers a highly intelligent action movie. Akhtar has taken of something much revered and made a contemporary, and true, classic that preserves everything laudable about the original, and improves on its every fault. The characters are more fully drawn and their roles are better balanced to provide a more cohesive and engaging narrative.Boman Irani does a commendable job with a crucial role in the movie. Arjun Rampal hardly flinches in what could have been a breakout role but at least stands his ground. Kareena Kapoor makes an excellent turn as the new Kamini and hits every note just right. Lending a lot of substance to the role, she does it more justice than was done to it in the original.It's almost a shame then when Priyanka Chopra becomes the principal female character. She certainly looks the part, especially as it was physically demanding, but doesn't really accomplish anything outstanding with it. Much more note-worthy is Isha Koppikar in the role of Anita. The role is very light on screen time and as subtle as it is brief. Koppikar though, gives a magnificent and under-stated performance to make it shine.The female characters aren't given much focus, but they integrate well into the story and to the central character of DON and give scope for improvement in future instalments of what should become Bollywood's most favoured franchise.The fight sequences could have been improved with better choreography, while the other action sequences range from fairly well-executed to excellent, and all make up a major step forward for Bollywood. The good production value really shows through on the screen.The soundtrack is fantastic and seamlessly complements the on screen proceedings. Each song is not just entertaining, but also progresses the story.The movie has hundred per-cent replay value; it is engaging and entertaining every time.

Chrysanthepop Many seem to have loved this flick but I found it to be average at best. Nothing memorable but not too bad for a remake. Farhan Akhter decorates 'Don' with high tech visuals, slick action sequences, gloss and glamour. He opts for a different (but still predictable) ending compared to the prequel. Yet, it falls short of being among the best films of the year. 'Don' had potential to be a lot better but it lacks heart. I wouldn't call it an improvement over Farhan's debut venture 'Dil Chahta Hai'. I admit that it's unfair to compare these two totally different films but the reason I mention it is because there are far more flaws in 'Don'. The chase scenes drag on and they're very repetitive. The pace is very slow at times. Some editing could have been helped.Shahrukh is quite convincing as 'Don'. This isn't his best but it's good enough. However, he doesn't seem to have a strong chemistry with any of the female leads. This was a big surprise to me because no matter how his movie or acting is in other movies, he always managed to maintain a strong chemistry with the ladies. I think this is more the actress's fault because they don't impress. Priyanka Chopra appears to be clueless (she doesn't have chemistry with any of the cast member let alone Shahrukh Khan) and in a few scenes with Vijay, she seems to be copying Juhi Chawla. Moreover, her fight scenes were laughable. Ishaa Koppikar barely has a role to speak of. Kareena Kapoor delivers a forgettable performance and her item number is disastrous while her death scene is hilarious. Arjun Rampal is equally forgettable. Boman Irani and Om Puri are adequate.The music is strictly OK, with a few exceptions: 'Yeh Mera Dil' and 'Khaike Paan' being the worst and 'Aaj ki Raat' being the best.'Don' has an okay screenplay, mediocre (to bad) performances, some interesting visuals, mostly forgettable music and very few good action scenes. I didn't like it so much and I don't think I would ever want to watch it again. Once is enough.
