Abhishek doesn't need to pull his buttons off to look stylish. Story-wise, Abhishek and Uday start right from where they stopped in Dhoom. Aishwarya's fresh look doesn't make her look fresh, she actually looks tired.

The rest of the movie Hrithik falls from high places and Aishwarya catwalks. Hrithik and Aishwarya have done the best that could be done with their intense scenes. Looks like more effort went into the layers of make-up on Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai than on Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Chopra's dialogue delivery. Glaring product placements and a few scenes that looked like they belonged to the trailer of the movie - test your patience.

Each of the five main characters have dramatic entries and a couple of them get the honour twice - annoying. Especially if, in the time between, you are going to have an overdose of Ekta Kapoor's soap opera style drama - two-second slow motion shots repeated thrice from different angles - not acceptable. A few smartly done action scenes stringed by some well choreographed songs are not good enough. Remember the genre of movie you are watching, the songs don't need to have any link to the story.Ī good action movie "has" to be a thriller first (vice-versa is not necessary). However, the dances for "Dhoom again" and the credits feel more like a high-level aerobics class than choreography. The foot-tapping numbers are a treat for the eye, especially "Dil laga na". Some sub-plots are outright silly and some outright unnecessary. Explanations for who got where and how, in at least three of these sequences, are deemed unnecessary. There are some awesome creative action sequences. The cinematography is spectacular, makes you really want to visit all the locations.
