Anubhav Sinha is back with Dus which brings together a huge star cast. This action-packed, edge-of-the-seat thriller revolves around 10 characters on a seven day mission to stop the most dangerous conspiracy - code named Jeet.


The movie has huge production value, great music, a star cast to die for and…ah! That’s it dude. Did we miss anything? Whatever happened to narration, screenplay and sensibilities is way beyond us.


Films director Anubhav Sinha (ASP) the director, has thrown together a big budget and an edgy background with a high-flying ensemble cast, to make sure his film will work. Does it? Lets see.


'Dus’ is a film that deals with neo-terrorism. The title has nothing to do with the film; it’s just a date that a terrorist outfit marks for the final attack. And, the code name for the attack is Jeet. The film has Pankaj Kapoor playing an outlaw.


STORYLINE:


One walks into a multiplex expecting 'Dus' to be an ideal popcorn entertainer with an ample share of thrills, action, excellent music and tons loads of attitude that would make for an ideal weekend watch. Presence of Sanjay Dutt and Sunil Shetty with current favorite Abhishek Bachchan teaming up with hyperactive Zayed Khan are only some of the factors that make you settle down. The lights go off, the camera is on, and title song 'Dus Bahane' begins! A perfect start, one wouldn't have imagined a better kickoff to one of the most awaited movies of the year.


an Anti Terrorist Cell [ATC] whose mission is to thwart an international conspiracy that threatens to put the 25000 lives on stake.


Special attention is given to introducing each and every character at the very beginning, especially the ATC members Sanjay Dutt, Abhishek Bachchan, Zayed Khan and Shilpa Shetty.


Shashank (Abhishek Bachchan), Aditi (Shilpa Shetty) and Aditya (Zayed Khan) work for the Anti Terrorist cell in India headed by DIG Siddhant (Sanjay Dutt) gets the Intelligence Information that some international terrorist – Jaamwal – has planned something huge for 10th of May and they have to prevent the plan from being hatched when all they know is the name of the terrorist.


Siddhant instructs Shashank and Aditya to reach Canada and thwart the mission. On their arrival, they meet Neha (Esha Deol), who is entrusted the responsibility of helping them accomplish this task. Dan (Suniel Shetty), the local cop tags in. Together they start unraveling a mystery which gets more tangled with each passing day, and days they don’t have. They manage to entrap a key aide of Jamaal, Pankaj Kapoor and then begins a game of lies and betrayals.


Pankaj Kapoor turns out be none other than Jamaal who uses the rat-pack as mere pawns to finish off his enemies. His ultimate aim is to kill Prime Minister of India who is addressing 25000 Canadians in a football station on 25th May.


Cake is taken by the poorly executed climax where one of the heroes wants to blow him and his plane to save the city. The way Sanjay, Abhishek, Zayed and Sunil argue is simply hammy. None of them sound convincing with the scene getting more laughs than anything else.


As far as acting is concerned, Sanjay Dutt towers above one and all with his yet another mature performance that thankfully doesn't have him play a don's role. He actually justifies for the role of an ATC chief.


Even Abhishek Bachchan,Suniel Shetty and Zayed Khan did justice to their roles...


Esha Deol isn't required to do anything at all than just to stand in a corner and see the boys do the tricks. Dia Mirza looks beautiful in 4-5 shots she is seen. Raima Sen only argues whenever on frame.


Songs are just 2 good...
