“Don 2, the sequel to Don starts from where the prequel ended.Though the story is surreal, impractical and seems like fantasy, the director gives it a slick treatment.It doesnu0026#39;t let go, even for a moment. The plot is stylishly crafted,with every twist and turn falling into place. Farhan Akhtar yet again proves that he is the most stylish film maker of recent times. The first half may seem cold in comparison with the 2nd, as the 2nd half takes the film onto a different level and keeps you on the edge of the seats.The script will mostly appeal to the urban crowd who are absolutely hooked onto international thrillers. The twists and turns in the 2nd hour may not be totally understandable to the average viewer.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAction is the USP of Farhan Akhtaru0026#39;s film. The chases, the fights, the destructions, escapes were spectacular and have all been done at par with International Standards.The car chase between Priyanka and Shah Rukh was unbelievable.The cinematography was top notch, be it the indoor or the outdoor shots. The locations in Berlin, Zurich, Malaysia u0026amp; Thailand, where it was shot completely came alive. The stylization u0026amp; look for every actor was so well defined.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eShah Rukh Khan uses all his charisma u0026amp; attitude and woos the audience with his charm. He is the the lifeline of the movie.And this is definitely amongst his best works till date. Priyanka Chopra, Boman Irani,Om Puri, Sahil Shroff, Kunal Kapoor, Alyy Khan u0026amp; Nawab Shah were very very good in their respective parts. Lara Dutta looks glamorous but has nothing else to do.Shah Rukh Khan u0026amp; Priyanka Choprau0026#39;s chemistry for those 5 minutes was crackling. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eLike a spot on the moon, the cameo by Hrithik Roshan was unnecessary u0026amp; forced. Hrithik looked awesome but playing Shah Rukhu0026#39;s masked avatar was totally bizarre. As their height, voice and body do not share any damn similarity.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWhat makes Don 2 a winner is,the public cheers every time a task is accomplished by Don. This is indeed credible because Don, after all, is a negative character.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSpecial mention is the last scene where Shah Rukh Khan rides a bike and passes on a bridge over the French Riveira, Oh My God-he has never looked so handsome before. All will definitely skip a heart beat. Don 2 ends with the promise of Don 3. Mr.Akhtar-we are waiting.”
