Drona
Cast: Abhishek Bachchan, Priyanka Chopra, Kay Kay Menon
Abhishek Bachchan appears as mythical super hero of Drona in this movie. This Super hero want to save the world from destruction. Unlike other super heroes, this time he comes with a bodyguard in Priyanka Chopra. Drona, directed by Goldie Behl, promises to be an entertaining fantasy film, complete with SFX and drama.
Goldie Behl's film boasts of some great action montages, specially a train sequence, reminiscent of Sholay, and loads of CGI stuff, where magical mirages appear in deserts, simple blue petals become living, breathing forms, a bloody clone of magician Kay Kay wilts before the original and a kohl-rimmed Priyanka Chopra kicks butt like never before. But that's just a handful. For the rest, the mumbo-jumbo about an ordinary hero, Aditya (Abhishek) who metamorphoses into super hero, Drona, after donning a magical bracelet and stops the bad guy from sipping amrit, leaves you cold and unmoved.
Maybe, because the hero has almost nothing to do, except mutter three-word dialogues after prolonged intervals. Because his svelte bodyguard (Priyanka Chopra) follows him like a lost puppy, whispering and whining, all the way through. Because the bad guy, Riz Raizada (Kay Kay) tries a Heath Ledger (as in The Dark Knight), but fails to tread the fine line between menace and melodrama. Because the narrative is threadbare, the drama sub zero and the end product is flop!
The film was made with a budget of 55corers. Will the fans accept a movie with out much story in it?
