Dishoom (2016)

When the movie was announced i was sure it would be fun.I was more excited to watch the film. The promotions promised full toss entertainment with catchy dialogues in their promotions.Each promos promised that it was a movie worthy to watch . Varun Dhawan is the most natural character in the movie.He has that charm that make us us laugh.John Abraham is also better compared to earlier movie with this director. About the lady characters,Jaqueline is the cutest.There is a good story spiced with item dances which is the masala in bollywood movies. But they are important in the film. It does not drag much as in usual one with dance sequences.The background scores are refreshing. Even the cameos were excellent.I love the way the songs gets balanced.The dialogues and facial expressions of Jaqueline is super compared to other films where they are just supportive.

Rohit Dhawan needs to learn a couple of tricks from is successful director dad David Dhawan.David who created his brand of comedy in the 90s with Govinda and Salman Khan ensured that his films were never boring and always maintained a balance between both halves.Desi Boyz had an excellent idea but poor execution making it boring. With Dishoom, he makes good progress but again the curse of 2nd half strikes making the overall product neither good nor bad.Dishoom starts extremely well. A leading cricketer is kidnapped and the Indian & UAE Govt has 48 hours to find him before the final. The Indian Foreign Minister sends John Abraham, a no nonsense cop to solve the case and he takes Varun Dhawan as his partner who cannot even find a missing dog. And joining them is Jacqueline, a thief in the hunt.The 1st half is superb and I'm not kidding. Rohit beautifully tells parallel stories, one of the two cops going in search of clues and the other what happened to the cricketer. There are some good twists and the entry of Akshaye Khanna takes the movie to another level.However, the 2nd half is bad to say the least. After interval, Rohit and his writers lose the plot and the movie becomes average. In the hunt of more clues, the heroes end up doing stupid things and I was left bewildered.The climax could have saved the film but again the heroes beat the cricketer and somehow the cricketer has all the strength and with broken bones goes on to play the finals. Wow.However, there are good things in the movie. John Abraham is nice playing the tough cop while Khanna in spite of the poorly written character plays the villain deliciously. Jacqueline is the beauty show piece. And then there are two brilliant comedy sequences which will leave you to splits. One where Satish Kaushik calls Varun as prospective father in law and Akshay Kumar as a homosexual man. Kumar is simply brilliant and I bet you can't stop laughing when he delivers one after another cheesy dialogues. However, this is a Varun Dhawan film. And boy he delivers in style. When he is on screen, the movie lights up.There is only song in the movie which is good and Rohit is smart to keep the pace fast and movie short.A time pass film.

Story 3/10, Direction 4/10, Action 5/10, Comedy 6/10, Sound/Music 4/10, Songs 6/10By Watching trailer , a Bollywood fan can assume that this movie will be full of action with weak story-line . but actually it does not have weak plot but also the bad direction. The scenes of a movie were not perfectly connected to each other also, the sound/music was too loud especially in action scenes. Action scenes were just OK nothing special. Only comedy scenes were good. The cameo of Akshay Kumar was very good and Varun Dhawan did a good job in terms of acting. Overall it is not a cinema type movie but you can watch it at home if you are too bored!!

the entry of every character brings a smile on people sitting in theaters.this is a family entertainer.no vulgarity. john has been given the role which perfectly suits him. akshaye khanna could have been more evil. cameos of nargis,akshay,parineeti marks the line. story is good.twists and turns play proper role in shocking the audience. film justifies the runtime as it is short. just one thing:leave your brain at home and watch.direction is really good. of course better than rohit shetty.nowhere its felt as if the VFX is used.chemistry between john and varun is the second main thing movie concentrates ON.total masala entertainer movie worth watching
