The trailer of the movie did not create high expectations as it looked like a typical Bollywood action drama with John and Varun as these good looking cops. The movie actually was a pleasant surprise with catchy songs and sharp direction. Debutante Rohit Dhawan has done a great job by not wasting time and to the point story telling. John as an actor has not evolved a bit with his nice physique and poker face his performance is average. Jacqueline also is in her comfort zone doing the same poor performance. But, Varun has taken a lot of efforts to improve which can be seen in his chemistry with John. The exotic locations and Rahul Dev add some spice to the screenplay. Wagah played by Akshay Khanna is a total disappointment and in negative role evokes pity than fear. The overall experience was average and I would go with 7/10 for the efforts of Varun and Rahul Dev.

The review for this movie can easily be summarized in one word thrash. The writing was uninspired and really didn't even make sense. It's like the writers were more focused on trying to fit in as many clichés as possible and not on an actual story. With the first half an hour you'll lose count of the number of clichés you've seen. There are so many clichés that you will cringe all the way through. Apart from John Abrham the acting was not good. John Abraham managed to capture all that could be caught of his character but the other actors in this film showed that they only know how to do one thing and that is overacting. This film's music was repetitive to the point in got annoying. Honestly this film is a borderline human rights violation, watching it felt like torture. Oh and when at the start when it says, "no animals were harmed in the making of this film" that statement is very hard to believe when you lions chains. The purpose of the lions in the scene also didn't really make sense and just left you wondering what was the point of torturing those poor animals.If I could I would give this movie 0

Dishoom has a very good story, but the execution was not up to the mark. It had great cast, but the screenplay was not so good. John Abraham acted like a tough cop, varun dhawan was comic, but then become serious at the end. Jacqueline was alright. Songs were good. Film starts on a good note with viraj playing good knock against srilanka in the semi finals. Eventually India wins the semifinals and will meet Pakistan in the final. Then Viraj will be kidnapped. Then the rest of the story is how viraj come backs and plays the finals. There are some great cameos like Akshay, Parineeti and Nargis. My overall rating will be 7 out of 10 as the direction was good in parts and action sequences are good.
