By the way I forgot to say it in my latest ask and I checked out the scene you mentioned much later - I really admired you DID see the change in his eyes when he looks at Aaliya in the dance scene before it was revealed they were twins because I watched the movie 2 times and I didn't catch it lol. You have such gimlet eyes man. Hats off to you.

Sahir vs Samar

Until the switch-a-roo, Sahir performs as a man who is not present but always looking to the future because he's always planning the next heist. Even the opening steampunk dance number Sahir keeps the cast at arms length. But Samar performs in the present and totally engages with his dance partner, he signs and dance on stage with the freedom that he doesn't have away from the stage.

Hey, Aamir Khan fan. I was wondering if you enjoyed the movies I recommended. If you liked them and Aamir's acting I have more movies for you to see!

Watched Dhoom3 and holy gamole guilty pleasure galore! Aamir Khan is a movie star of the bygone Hollywood golden era but still well and alive in Bollywood. That Dhoom3 took place in "exotic locale" Chicago was not lost on me.

Aamir Khan is a force of nature as the antagonist, and the movie only pretends to try to resist Aamir's gravitational pull as he's on an obsessive revenge mission to destroy a bank whom he blames for the death of his father. By day he's a brazen bank robber, by night he's the star cirque du solei performer.

I'm unfamiliar with the Dhoom franchise but I get the sense that #3 essentially turned the antagonist into the protagonist and side lined the heroic Mumbai cop Jai Dixit and his goofy sidekick Ali Akbar. It's only in the 3rd act that Jai finally has an arc that involves cat-and-mouse chase of switch-a-roo magicians and why cops and thieves could never be friends not just because they are on opposite side of the law (in the U.S it's not unheard of for felons to marry police wo/men).

There's high-octane actions and crazy stunts with motorcycles that makes me wish there is a crossover with Fast & Furious just to see motorcycles vs cars war. Dhoom 3 fully embraces the insane, the zany, the complete disregard for logic, and slo-mo action scenes that extends the movie's running from 2 1/2 to nearly 3 hours. But what makes this movie stand out among action movies is the highly emotional storyline of Aamir’s character, which requires spoilers ahead.

[spoilers]

While I saw the twist coming during the glitzy cirque du solei scene, the reveal that Aamir's Sahir has a twin name Samar was very satisfying, helped by the soundtrack that is unapologetically bombastic throughout the movie, providing vital emotional hook for scenes that otherwise would have fallen flat.

I feel that Aamir borrowed from Dustin Hoffman's Rainman to portray the autistic math savant Samar who is hidden from the world and only brought out to take over second half of Sahir's role in bank heists and circus performances. Nobody outside their late father knew that there are two men instead of one.

Due to isolation and his mental disorder, Aamir plays Samar as a slouching wide-eyed innocent with complete trust in the perfectly postured Sahir, whose scowl reflects his relentless ambition and revenge mission that has prevented him from romantic pursuits in the lovely Aaliya, the cirque du solei lead female performer. Even though Sahir is the public face of the circus and has many interactions with his cast and the police men on the case to catch him, he is just as isolated and insular as Samar.

Before the twin reveal, Aamir tries to drop hints to the audience when he is playing Samar, mainly by showing his puppy love for Aaliya during the cirque du solei performance from their switch-a-roo act, contrasted with Sahir's indifference towards her when the curtain drops and the show ends. It is this reason why Aaliya was able to avoid the Lois Lane trap and figured out she has been singing and dancing with two different men.

Then the movie throws another twist when Jai meets with Samar to convince him to help turn in Sahir, only to turn out to be Sahir in another satisfying reveal that I didn't see coming. One of my favorite acting scenes is the flashback of Sahir taking Samar's place by switching clothes and when he starts walking, he morphs into Samar's physicality on his way to meet Jai, who is sympathetic toward the brothers but the law is the law. Jai wants to help the brothers by having turn themselves in and plea for mercy. Sahir eventually agrees after failing to kill Jai by rollarcoaster (trust me, just go along with it) and makes a deal by taking the full blame and leaving Samar free and to be with Aaliya.

But in the final twist, the faithful Samar refuses to follow Sahir's plan and instead choose to follow Sahir to his death. I admit I wasn't sure if they would go this route because it would be too heartbreaking, and yet I was still surprised that the dual deaths happened even when it makes narrative sense. The brothers lived as one person all their lives would die together in the end, clutching hands. It's also a genius call back to the movie's first scene of Sahir running down the side of the bank he just robbed.

Score: 8.5 out of 10. Very entertaining high-octane movie with very strong emotional heart. I think if the story didn't take place in Chicago, a city I'm very familiar with, I might have rated the movie higher.

the hindutva brigade will never get me to turn on aamir khan. i've been his number one fan ever since i was born. you will never understand the intricacies of qayamat se qayamat tak or pk. tfw you have to organise to boycott laal singh chaddha. i am at least half of the views for the har funn maula music video. i have seen every episode of satyamev jayate at least four times and i was there when it aired. gujarat really did a pussy move when they refused to screen fanaa. dhoom 3 is the only movie ever. papa kehte hai bada naam karega

sooraj ki baahon mein from znmd - need i explain?

matargashti from tamasha - the ranbir kapoor character to hyuck pipeline needs to be studied

Thoughts you have while driving in New Delhi:

1. Indicator kya aapke pitaji aayenge dene?

2. Yeh jo left mudti hui gaadi ko left se overtake karte hain na.. inko army mein bharti karna chahiye. Agar marna hi hai toh desh ke liye maro.. yeh kya noobs jaise road pe mar rahe ho 😛

3. Yeh 10 min lamba horn maarne se kya saamne wali gaadi udne lagegi?

4. Koi in bikers ko bataye ki yahan Dhoom 4 ki shooting nahi chal rahi

5. Main road pe GAAY kahan se aagayi!?!!??

6. Aunty pls aashirvad dete huye gaadi ke saamne se road mat cross karo pls 😭😭😭😭
