Ya.. it is like the biggest hit of all time

but for me... the biggest disaster

I think the movie simply has no story

Start off as a father-son thing with Salman and his dad having issues..
takes a turn when Salman is a cop and that too with gray shades but then again turn and then the story doesn't move at all

I see no story in the movie.. just some songs and scenes put together

Munni was the best thing abt this movie according to me ...

Salman looked good and acted good and honestly looked good with Sonakshi !

but I think the movie is like the MOST OVER RATED MOVIE EVER !

Ur views?
Liked it ? what for

just dnt say... cuz of Salman :p
No movie is such a hit cause of an actor...

wats bringing ppl to watch it ?

Thank god. I thought i was hte only one.
I didnt like it at all!
My views on Dabanng are simple. take Salman out of it, and you have NOTHING.
Salman was fantastic, the film was...NOT.

i liked it, yeah i know there were loopholes but still for me it was salman so i loved it, sometimes stars make the film what it is

no offence to srk-mads and karishma fan, but even i feel that dil to paagal hai was nothing

so it happens, has happened time and again

a strong actor and a strong character can carry a weak script--here it has happened the same

^Agree..
The only good thing about Dabanng was Salman Khan and perhaps the songs. The story overall was not up to the standards of films like 3 Idiots which Dabang is being compared to.

It was a masala film but any scene without Salman was blah.

movie basic purpose is to entertain people and if it is doing that then it must be good movie and dabanng is exactly doing that.
people are coming out of cinema satisfied after watch dabanng and thinking it worthed their money.it is masala movie not trying to teach u something.
dabanng focus is on characters rather then story .story is same old but presentation is aweseome in dabanng. how many movies u watch and after u remember chacter name and dialogues. i think very very few.offcourse i agree salman is the best part of dabanng but others actors also played fair part .music is awesome and above all very very catchy dialogues .
if majority people liking the movie then it must be a good movie na😆

This movie was well made for what they wanted to show ...as for DTPH ...i found nothing out of this world or enjoyable abt it ...as for music this film has some songs,acting was spot on by all,and the dialogues were crisp and suited the region the movie was based in....

Most movies that work offer nothing new so why single out one .....

well its same dil to pagal hai kuch kuch hota hai.. WTF she goes with a man who already have a kid on a age of 7-8 no way..
there r so many .. which is overrated n im not saying it coz of salman khan fan.. no dabangg was a nice movie coz salman khan was there if he wsnt there.. sonakshi would have ben able to make the movie hit by herself..
and what abt kaho na pyaar hai
everyone went gag gag over hrithik roshan that why the movie was a hit

i strongly disagree all the movies mentioned above have a very good sciprt, and are evergreen and i dun find anything that great in dabang i find it quite dumb actually and in the long run it will not have the same status of the movies mentioned above!! sum movies cum in dry seasons and do well like welcome but they r never remembered
