Just Watched Don 2 in the morning. It's helluva an awesome movie..
Get Lost all Haters!! Those who haven't watched it, GO AND WATCH IT. And if you are going with the reviews, then you are doing the same mistake which I did with Jab We Met & MI:4. Both the movies got opposite reviews (bad & great) and based on them I decided to spend (or not) my money. And I regret both my decisions.
Well Don 2 is a thriller. Its a very well made film and a welcome break from all those cheap Inspectors and security guards films. The thriller plot seems cliched at first but the twist in the end is mind-blowing. The actions are AWESOME and all those who find Hollywood action better than ours, will be in for a shock. The stunts are hell lot better than in MI:4. SRK (Shahrukh Khan) as Don looks classy and stylish. Priyanka Chopra is fab as well.
Coming to the point, the movie is "mostly" about evil and double crossing. And that put my heart and mind to thinking. All those gore killings and blackmailing were looking (thought of as) "COOL" & "STYLISH". There were claps and "oohh"s when SRK (the anti-hero) used to smash people and act mean & sinister. Is this what times have changed? That all that glittery and glamorous things, even though they are acquired by acts of crime and ill-will are looked up to, desired & lusted after. People try to imitate who do so.
Its just not about the movie but, its all around us. Just have a look. All the crime rate increasing is less coz of want of food but coz of desires and the flashy lifestyle. I mean where are those good jolly old people whom people used to reflect and adore. But that's exactly what seems to happen. Even on the romantic front the society around us portrays a similar picture. Its a common notion that BAD GUYS GET THE GIRL. The Good people are just "sweet" & "cute" and "just friends"-material.
Imagine A Bad "Santa Claus" :O. Can you think what would happen if all those cute things are rubbished to pave way for the suave badness?
Is this what we have come to??
Think about it.
Ciao :)
