It is great to see SRH doing a negative role after a long time in previous films like Baazigar & Darr, mostly people think that he is better off in romantic roles but I like him in negative. The film was a terrific action, thriller and the use of modern technology looked fantastic quite similar to the James Bond movies. I've not seen the original Don but I don't think that will turn out to be good as this one because it's an old film which I'm not really keen of. I don't mind remakes as long as their good, most of them are rubbish e.g. Devdas & Umrao Jaan but Don is simply the best remake ever! Farhan Akhtar has proved to be a good director. Songs are excellent my most favourite song is "Yeh Mera Dil" because the lyrics had 2 meanings and Kareena Kapoor was looking so glamour's as usual. The scene where SRH & the other guy fell from a plane while fighting for a parachute was amazing & unexpected a scene like that has never been tackled before in a Bollywood movie, the other scene that was really cool is the fight just before the ending with Boman Irani. The twist in the end was the icing on the cake of the whole film and Don has proved that "Not only is it difficult to catch Don - It's impossible!!!"

Don (2006) is a thrill a minute, edge of the seat, don't blink or you'll miss something, superbly stylised action movie. It's a sort of Don(1978) meets James Bond (the Pierce Brosnan era, with all its hi-tech gadgetry etc). It is unbelievably slick and amazingly cool. Its got the finish of a top-end magazine like Vogue or GQ…glossy, beautiful, a work of art. And the action scenes are breathless, non-stop and come at you one after another.

I had severe reservations about Mr Khan as Don. Especially as there are few bigger Mr Bachchan fans than me – I idolise the man. However, I've come from the movie convinced that no one else in the current set of stars could've carried it off as well as Shahrukh. He looks and behaves like Don – completely different to the chocolate faced 'Main Hoon Na' and 'Kal Ho Na Ho' giggling lover boy we are used to. In this movie he has a steely look about him, a nastiness that is very believable. He is slightly over the top, but only to the degree you would want him to be.

Priyanka Chopra simply sizzles. When I look at her on screen now I'm ready to do all the things Jim Carrey does in the 'Mask' when he see's Cameron Diaz dance at the club ! The great thing, I remember, about watching Don (1978) as a 7 year old, was that when you came out of the movie (and for the next few days)…you felt you were Don ! You wanted to be like him, copy all mannerisms, you were mesmerised, felt the sense of power. I saw the same impact of this Don (2006) on my son (coincidentally also 7 years old). But even better, it still had the same impact on me ! Just love it ! Check out my full review at apurvbollywood at blogspot

I first saw this with my family in a theatre in 2006. Revisited it recently. While the original 1978 version was ahead of its time n it has some amazing star cast, this one is slick with the best twist ending in the history of Bollywood.

Sharukh aint no match in comparison with Amitabh, especially the way Amitabh portrayed the dead serious n cold hearted behavior n face but Sharukh is stylish n he gave a decent performance.

This one has some lovely locations, good action n it has Kareena in a busty shape.

The scene in the original where Don is locked up in the same cell along with his associates n Shakaal (Shetty) is tensed n nail biting. This one is lacking such stuff.
