"Dhoom 2" starts with a scene that made my jaw drop and left me puzzling why director Sanjay Gadhvi isn't locked away in the Tower of London. Hrithik Roshan posing as the Queen? The mind boggles! This film is lightweight entertainment but it boasts one of the best looking cast I've ever seen and the visuals are gorgeous. Aishwarya Rai is delicious as bad girl Sunehiri and Bipasha Basu is delectable as twin sisters Shonali and Monali. Rimi Sen reprises her role as long-suffering wife of Abhishek Bachchan, Sweety.
Bachchan's Jai Dixit is not the most likable character but Uday Chopra is the perfect sidekick, bringing welcome comic relief to most scenes.
However, it's Hrithik Roshan who steals the show (no pun intended). Roshan is a great bad guy and the most interesting character in the film.
The dance sequences and songs are a lot of fun but the film could have been so much better had the script been more developed.
7 out of 10. Good but not great.
