DHOOM 3 - Lacks The Punch

Cast:  Aamir Khan, Jackie Shroff, Abhishek Bachan, Uday Chopra & Katrina Kaif.
Director: Vijay Krishna Acharya.
Producer: Aditya Chopra

Duration: 172 Minutes

Dhoom-3 for me personally has been the biggest let down in the Dhoom franchise. Heavily inspired from the movie The Prestige, coupled with some illogical plot and laid back performances, this one just misses the bus. Contrary to Dhoom franchise, this one lacks the style and whoomph quotient and relies mostly on melodrama.

Without revealing much about the plot, Dhoom 3 is about Samar (Aamir Khan) who is set to bring down the most happening bank in Chicago for the reasons (Please watch the movie) and how Jay Dixit (Abhishek) & Ali (Uday) counter him is the plot.

Vijay Acharya has done some fabulous job with his camera & taking. Especially the first introduction sequence of Aamir khan, Malang Song & the way Chicago has been run down is amazing. But in spite of these magic moments due to its weak script Dhoom 3 just doesn’t make it.

Coming to the performances except of Aamir Khan, hardly others impress you. Uday with his comic timing gives in a breezer of relief. Abhishek Bachan has been below power and Katrina Kaif is hardly put to use by the director. Even the music when compared to later has been below power.

All in all, in spite of all the flaws Dhoom 3 is good one time watch.  

Rating: 2/5
