Re: Don - All threads Merged
Someone told me that it was a scene to scene remake of the old one. But It didnt turn out to be that. In fact they made few changes and introduced some new sequences in the movie but that created lots of plot cliches while original one didnt have such loopholes. There are so many unanswered question in this new one. BUT, the major change at the end caught me off guard and suddenly was the saving grace of the movie and made it above average. Kareena was looking absolutely gorgeous. What happened to her by the way? She has certainly improved, both appearance wise and acting wise. Pehlay tu koji si hoti thi :D
However, being a BIG B fan I dont rate SRK's performance that much. He was okay with his naive image but carrying DON's personna was somewhat out of his league. But he tried his best and should be appreciated for the effort. He could not possibly have pulled off those famous 'khai ke pan' steps and expressions by Amitabh.
All in all, if you dont compare it with original then this movie is good. But in comparison it falls rather short; cinematography and hi-fi techcnial action stuff aside.
