UK audience review about DON2

·         Harika Chadha’s Review: My Don 2 verdict: absolutely fabulous, clever script, slick production, brilliant acting and outstanding dialogues 9.5/10 (- 0.5 for Priyanka Chopra). Brilliant from start to finish! Excellent first and second half. Bollywood signs off 2011 spectacularly with Don 2. It exceeded my expectations by far, and I had very high expectations to start with!

• ·         Mansoor hafeeza sent a tweet to Farhan Akhtar saying: Hey farhan .. The response is amazing in uk.. Just came out after watching don 2 in Wandsworth London .. What a movie year
• ·         Will Sheppard’s Review: Watch Don 2 to see Shahrukh Khan and Boman Irani give amazing performances, priyanka do her usual rubbish, explosions, car chases and only one song!
• ·         Mahendra Kumar Giri: Nice work done by Farhan Akhtar! Made a man make switch over from Cartoon (R-1) movie to action thriller Don 2 !!
• ·         Javed Kana: Premiere of Don 2. Nail-biting first half. SRK ROCKS!! And Farhan Akhtar’s direction is first rate!!!
• ·         Jay Mamtora’s Don 2 review and impressions spread over several tweets. Some interesting points, do read.
• ·         Don 2 (at) Interval: slick and gripping movie and the 3D is very effective! Let’s hope the curse of the second half doesn’t strike!
• ·         Shahrukh Khan makes a great villain and the action sequences are outstanding – they put Ra One to shame.
• ·         Don 2 totally kicks ass! What a film great action, suspense, coherent plot, interesting characterisations… Very Hollywood!
• ·         SRK performed really well… None of his usual hamming… Very restrained and stylish being a villain really suits him!
• ·         Priyanka Chopra was good in whatever she had to do and aced the action sequences but I wish there was more of her! The interaction and her relationship with Don is very interesting
• ·         And what I loved was the fact that there were no unwanted songs and so there was no interruption in the plot. It was waay better than Don 1!
• ·         The supporting cast were good too especially Boman Irani. Kunal Kapoor and Lara Dutta were average
• ·         Essentially Don 2 is a boys film. Great action and explosions and an interesting plot too. The characters were very grey nobody was black or white! They should definitely have a third part
• ·         I didn’t really count the action sequences but I loved how there was a certain consistency abt the film – no bakwas!
• ·         On Don 2′s Runtime: it was about 2hrs 20mins I think :-)
• ·         It’s so cool and slick and really shows that Bollywood can make good action films too
• ·         I’d say about 3.5 to 4 stars… I really enjoyed it was hooked didn’t get bored at all
• ·         Not killer suspense. no, but I liked how everything fell into place. It wasn’t stupid suspense like say Race (Abbas-Mustan film) it made sense.
• ·         On Hrithik Roshan’s role: He didn’t have that big a role but was okay in whatever little he had to do. He was dapper and dashing as usual but i was slightly disappointed about the way he was used (in Don 2)
• ·         I liked the story it followed through nicely from Don 1
• ·         second half was better than the first for a change
• ·         It’s a thousand times better than Don 1 I didnt really like Don 1
• ·         I want to watch the first one again as it refers back to the first quite a bit I would like to watch in succession
• ·         SRK was restrained and subtle not his usual over the top acting that’s why I enjoyed it
• ·         I must say 3D was very well done
• ·         Hrithik was in for about 5 mins this is an out and out SRK movie
• ·         Not slow paced at all. The action kicks off in the first 5 mins that’s what I liked no time wasting
• ·         Very mission impossible (Hollywood movies), slick and believable no dishum dishum like standard Bollywood films
• ·         On Sahil Shroff: the newcomer was handsome but his performance was nothing to write home about
• ·         I have a feeling it will definitely do well and help SRK reclaim some lost glory post Ra One
• ·         I think it won’t break bodyguards record because people were so disappointed with Ra One
• ·         I liked the climax it was exciting and the way it ended
