BTW, talking about timeline, does complete split form space-time reality bother anyone else?
The famous Diwali - Holi 8 months in HDDCS is of course out there but it happens almost in every movie where events are time specific.

In LGRB, at the end Gadhi ji specifically says that Sunny and Simran are married for 5 years (must be nice - Gandhi ji keeping track of your married life)...however at their wedding Munna mentions Tsunami which happened on December 26th, 2004! HUH! It has not even been two years yet since the Tsunami!



wow!! and Indians think it is logical to send LRMB to the oscar awards!

Don was a better story of course - worth making again.
D:2 made no sense whatsoever as a story.
For example: How come the queen who is so darn worried about the crown in a moving trian in a desert keeps the crown open in a compartment with plain sight through the window? Why not keep it in a safe? How is an acid strong enough to burn through an Iron septic tank within 5 seconds does not burn shoes or the pants?
My favorite: If one makes a theft in Mumbai on July 6th (or is it 8th?)2006. then makes a theft next week in Junaghadh, one cannot reach to Rio in time for Carnival after that....Rio Carnival happens in March and March 2007 is yet to come!

The only thing - other than exact 'humshakal' thing which we desi audiances should learn to live with - that did not make sense to me in Don is how come Don had Munch's 'Scream' still in his safe, whereas it is already found! Even the farfetched 'twist' at the end was at least possible if not probable.

Agree to all the points..but:

1. The queen lady told to close the curtains...
2. There was an acid part?

Like I said, I only like the storyline better...but the Movie itself: half it was in slow motion, and it also denied newton's laws😆

Don: The Chase Begins AGAIN <- that's what I'm focused on. If it began again, shouldn't there be a DIFFERENT plot, instead of a technologically advanced remake of the original one?

Dhoom:2 <- over here, the story is continued, many same characters, and a pretty good story.

Well, you could say that this debate is over the title of the two movies...😊

Don was way better. Dhoom 2 is just a sheer waste of Hritik roshan's good looks n talent.Others in the movie dont even deserve a mention.

When did this happen😕...I guess I missed something😕

besides,talking about implausibility,the entire movie was unbelievable..Some more...

1)How come there are only 5 men guarding the crown,and why wasnt the train stopped when the crown was stolen😕

2)What happens to the helicopter from which Aryan emerges??

3)How could Aryan metamorph from the statue getup into a cleaner,all in 5 minutes time(it wouldnt have taken more than 5 mins for Jai Dixit to alert Ali,after realizing that the theft was going to happen at the meseum)

4)AB Jr keeps harping on that a theif can be nabbed only when he steals,not before or after..then why does he go chasing the two thiefs on a helicopter AFTER they've stolen the coins..and besides,there was no solid proof either..It wasnt like Jai even saw the two thiefs there,all he got his hands on was the "A".....

Implausibility rife...The movie was watchable for Hrithik(fans and audience who leave their brains at home(like me) would enjoy it,intellectuals wouldnt),connoisseurs wouldnt rate the film highly!!

Hey I was wondering..
when hrithik was dressed up as a white statue..

wouldnt police note moving statues if he walked in stole and left...


My sis and I were mesmerised by hrithik.. we didnt think of this at that point of time..later on we had a laugh over it...

If dhoom2 is a success, it can be attributed to two reasons only : locations & hrithik roshan

Lol even I was wondering..How did he in the first place position himself among those statues when that place had 24-7 surveillance😕..and yes,how did he move away,wouldnt the police notice....and besides,when he creates an illusion of the diamond using special lights,when he moves away,wouldnt the light cease to keep the security blindfolded,how come no one barricaded all the exits,why did it require an ALi to enter and then instruct the guards to shut the gates....How farcicial......There were so many cockamamie schemes and ploys...That's why i said,those who leave their brains behind would enjoy it,those who go weak in their knees watching Hrithik/Ash/Bips would like it,aficionados of mindless flicks would love the movie,and the fans of the 5 lead actors would watch it for their favourites....

One good aspect of DOn was that Don was evil till the end,unlike Aryan who took a 180 degree turn ,a suave calculating thief ended up being this love crazed romeo🤢...How I wish Aryan has really shot Sunehri when he uncovered that she works hand in glove with the police...that would have made him more wicked!😛
