Awesome film.I love it and one of my favourite film.Direction was good from farhan akhtar.The screenplay was good.The location and cinematography were good.And awesome awesome and terrific dialouges.Loved the dialouges man.All the dialouges were terrific.The editing was awesome.The movie is a little long but I swear not even a second I feeled bored.The movie rocks from start till end.The suspense was awesome.Better than amitabh don.The songs were awesome and nice.The acting was terrific from King Khan (Srk).This kinda roles suits to him and he should do more movies like and he he done like don 2 and raees both of these were awesome.Priyanka Chopra and Lara dutta acted good.kareena kapoor was OK in her small role.Overall an awesome film to come out from bollywood.I am waiting for don 3 because don 2 has already released and it's awesome.A must watch.

In the name of movie making people do some chu***giri. This movie is a perfect example of it. Made for ch****s. Someone saw a lot of Hollywood movies forgot the origin of don & himself.The whole movie is boring with nonsense dialogues NOT funny at all scenes dumb acting by most of the cast & very very poor direction & editing. The ending is somewhat better than the entire film. Apart from that this movie will only irritate you.Like I said before many actors overacted most of the time. script is so poor that I suspect if there was any.If you have seen a lot of movies & have good knowledge on them then stay as far as possible from this disaster.

First things first,let me tell u that I did not like the Original DON(1978) that much.It was good in parts but it was only the Aura of AB with the music that actually pulled it off.If the same story had been reused,the movie would have ended up being a disaster.But,I guess Farhan Akthar does a great job in this movie.Yes,the beginning is a bit slow but he more than makes up for it by the time the movie ends.Shah Rukh is incredible as DON and the others do their job well.The music is good(A special mention to the Background track...its incredible..).And watch out for the climax...Pros:1)Great acting by Shah Rukh2)Amazing cinematography (Everything looks classy and stylish..just notice the way Shah Rukh wears his tie!)3)A nice racy background scoreCons:1)Vijay part is quiet boring2)Jasjit's (Arjun Rampal) role wasn't required if u ask me..Overall,a great entertainer and worth the wait..!

I was initially sceptical about Don being remade because the original Don is one of my favourite Amitabh movies and was even more sceptical when I found out that son of Javed Akthar, Farhan Akthar was going to direct it. I was however pleasantly surprised, though not quite as good as the original but considering that most remakes are terrible it was decent entertainment. There are however some quite serious flaws. One of Farhan Akthar direction, his movies are known to be slow and stately paced, for instance Dil Chata Hai. Unfortunately Farhan Akthar brought that same slow stately pace to Don, which considering Don is meant to be a fast paced action thriller can be a huge flaw. Another flaw is that the original Don had an element of surprise and since this is a remake the element of surprise disappears because I already know that the policeman(In the original played by Om Shivpuri, in the remake played by Boman Irani)will be the head of the criminals. Thankfully it is not a complete disaster, Shah Rukh Khan almost saves the movie singlehandedly. His rendition of Khaike Pan Banaraswala could have fallen flat on its face but instead is a success. Another saving grace is the twist ending, which was not in the original that had me reeling from the shock days later. As far as remakes come, you could do a whole lot worse than Don.
