hey..don't get cynical

Well, if you can accuse Farhan Akhtar of trying to build on the original.. wat do u say of ur review which speaks so much abt comparision.
Agreed that the twists might be flawed.. but look at the plusses.. SRK acting out the bad guy with elan.. c'mon very rarely does a viewer loves being a bad guy..n this is exactly one situation.
The production values set a bench-mark.barr the one scene aping con-air.They r a big leap ahead from the slow motion psuedo acrobactics from Dhoom... and y does every one yell so much over a plot..when a movie like DHOOM sold itself making fools of every viewer.
Atleast Farhaan did try to take u for an intelligent viewer. guesss wat wud have been the review if he matched every frame with the old movie.. PSST NEW DON OFFERS NOTHING NEW..
Get over it buddy(Mr.Raja Sen). agreed the FIG B's baritone is missing.. but yes.this is real stylish keeps u on ur toes film.which atleast respects the intelligent viewer. Don't just dwell on the past.
embrace the present.and it belongs to SRK(atleast regards to the film).so enjoy the car chases. INDIA's answer to RONIN.

All said and done Mr. Bacchan's voice still rings in my ears(Don ki dushman ka sabse badi..)
