Trivia:
This is the first pairing of Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai after many close tries. They were supposed to be in a movie directed by Tanuja Chandra but it wasn't possible. more
Goofs:
Continuity: While watching the movie "Cars" in a theatre Aryan, Jai and Sunehri are shown to be talking for barely 5 minutes. But the scenes of the movie which are shown in the middle of their conversations are very far apart. This is not possible because they have been talking for barely 5 minutes. more

Review of Dhoom 2, 9 December 2006
1/10
Author: srb from United States

Dhoom-2 opens with a "somewhere in Namibia desert" opening scene and instantly gives its game away. What follows over the next couple of hours is a rehash of MI-2-meets-Ocean's-Eleven-heist-movie that makes being stranded on a Namibian desert sound like a better alternative. The plot is absurd and the script bumbles along from one event to another with an array of songs that kill the continuity, if any was meant in the first place.

Abhishek's skills of inference and deduction never cease to amaze (he figures the next location where the genius thief is going to make his attempt by a two-second study of map patterns and by feverishly tapping a laptop key four times in quick succession), but his gruff demeanor leaves him looking like he'd rather be doing something else. Make no mistake, Aishwarya is awesomely irritating and left me stunned with her strange vocabulary. She peppers her lines with strange words – Sample: "funny guy" and "like" which was the third word in any dialogue she spoke. Besides, she persistently refers to herself only in the third person and after watching her for a bit, you wonder if she was better off on the Jerry Springer show rather than the Oprah Winfrey stint she got invited to. Then there is Uday Chopra. He looks like he's walked straight out of X-Men with odd bulbous biceps and acting skills equivalent of mammoth Amazon rain forest.

Redemption comes in the form of Hrithik Roshan who's all toned abs-latino look is the only thing that works here. He appears completely convincing doing all those gravity-defying jumping, kicking, skating and rappelling. But he's the lone warrior in a losing battle.

The music is as it usually is these days – catchy tunes, contemporary lingo and a host of electronic sounds, the visuals are pleasing but overall, Dhoom-2 is perilously close to a near-death experience if there is indeed such a thing. Its an insult to your intelligence and reflective of the crap that Bollywood churns out with shameless regularity.
