Dum Maaro Dum
Critic reviews and ratings
-
This one's complete paisa vasool fare.
-
...a stylish thriller written as smartly as it is directed.
-
Though visually plush the hard-hitting content is not overpowered by style.
-
There's enough dum here to give you a movie high.
-
...leaves you occasionally on a high, but also a tad disappointed. With the body of a modern thriller and the soul of a 1970s masala film, the idea behind the hybridisation had potential, but DMD falls slightly short.
-
...a 'dumdar' thriller with a riveting plot and splendid performances.
-
It just about makes for an enticing thriller here.
-
...tidily brackets itself into a new-age masala film that engages you at a superficial level for a while, but loses its vigour somewhere along the way.
-
...is like a maze, you never know where you might end up. Even though there's a chance of getting lost, the journey is definitely worth its price.
-
...is a curious mixture of East and West. The West undoubtedly inspires its cinematic technique, with its aesthetic sense of sepia and Innaritu-esque setup.
-
...does have the ingredients for an interesting one time watch.
-
...is like fast food that's high on calories, but falls short in the nutrition department. Yes, it's slick, stylish and well-crafted, but the fact remains that it lacks the power to create a dum-daar impression.
-
...fluctuates between sleek nostalgia and sluggish solutions.
-
This is one film that should soar but sadly it never quite takes flight. The problem is the writing.
-
Above average...
-
...worth a watch for the peek into the seamier side of Goa; but expecting anything other than Bollywood style thrills and chases will leave you disappointed.
-
All right for a quick one-shot.
-
This is, in general, a superbly staged film, but it doesn't quite hit its emotional notes consistently. You're there - yet not there.
-
...makes a crime thriller as disinteresting as it could be. The lines are limp and the situations are far from creative. The plot is strung together with a series of events that have no flow.
-
...is a heady cocktail of crime, deceit, love, sex and drama. And yet, somehow, it fails to come together as the slick action thriller that it set out to be.
-
...is chipped china, but in the context of recent Hindi movies, at least you are drinking from crockery.
-
...artsy-tartsy in terms of its ferris-wheel cinematography and MTV-cutting but devoid of substantial or even credible content in its screamplay.
-
...does no justice to Goa, or to its subject that has so much thrill and tragedy built in, that it must have taken real effort not to make a watchable film.
-
The lows are many and the highs are almost non-existent in this drug-fest.
