Dishoom (2016)
Worst film ever
Watched it. Wish I had walked out. 1 star is too generous for this movie. Saddens me. Bollywood takes a few more steps back.
Varun is OK. John is a bad actor. Jacqueline was only good in Roy. In this film she is terrible Akshaye Khanna is good. Akshay Kumar cameo is nothing to write home about.
Disappointing from Rohit Dhawan. His first film Desi Boyz was bad but sad to say this is much worse. No evolution at all.
Another buddy cop film. But buddy cop genre is tough. Needs excellent screenplay and direction. Unfortunately both missing. 1/10
David Dhawan's earlier films were a lot more progressive than this regressive 2016 film.
Sajid Nadiadwala will lose his equity with films like Housefull, Dishoom and the upcoming Flying Jatt.
I don't recommend to watch this movie to anyone but recommend skipping it totally
Roy (2015)
A terrific film!!!
Roy (2015) is simply one of the best movies to come out of our Indian Film Industry. I loved the concept and the sheer ambitiousness of the plot chosen by the debutante Vikramjit Singh. Sure, the film is a little flawed but I found it fabulous all the same.
A meta film, essentially. I thought was watching a European movie, not a Hindi movie. Arjun Rampal and Ranbir Kapoor were absolutely terrific in essaying their parts. Double thumbs up to Kapoor. I thought he was way better here and restrained than he has been in his other films. The scene where Roy and Tia walk through the pier area in Malaysia where he tells her that one day he will leave all this and start a new life and Tia asks him to take her along is absolutely top class.
So many other gems. The two scenes between Rampal and Kapoor were the two of the greatest scenes I have seen in a long time. The interval point where Roy's bullet pierces through Rampal's life as he sits forlorn staring at the horizon is genius. Yes, the first half could have been a little crisper. The set up could have been a tad different but overall, the film impressed the socks out of me.
Very well done Bollywood. And Singh and Kapoor, I cannot wait for your next. Please oh please don't deviate from the conviction you guys showed in this film. And as for the haters, please learn about cinema. This film has a 3.3 rating on IMDb. Joke. Deserved 7.5+ at least
