I have bought Dhoom 1+2 at the same time a while back, when both were down in price at the same time. These movies belong to the most successful Bollywood movies in recent times. But after watching the first one I was heavily disappointed and it took me a while to watch the second one. Luckily I decided to finally watch it, because I enjoyed it a lot more than the other. In huge part thanks to Hritik Roshan ("Krrish") as the master thief Mr. A.
When the movie started I feared it was going to be similar to the first one. It had bad over-the-top and very unrealistic action scenes. But luckily it was only the pre-credit sequence. After that it was a funny buddy-cop movie with some nice action and a great villain.
This movie also caused some controversies in India because of the on-screen kiss between Ashwarya Rai and Hritik Roshan. In recent years it is done more and more in Indian films, but it is still not very much accepted. Especially in such a high profile movie.

I found this movie quite boring. I had hoped for a funny spy/action movie, but I didn't find it funny and the visual effects were below average.

Supernatural Marathon, a review by addicted2dvd

EPISODE 5: Bloody Mary
"Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary." An incantation uttered during a game of truth or dare unleashes a ghoul who "lives" in mirrors...and kills by gouging out the eyes of her prey.

Guest Stars:
Adrianne Palicki as Jessica Lee Moore
Marnette Patterson as Charlie
William Taylor as Detective
Chelan Simmons as Jill
Kristie Marsden as Donna Shoemaker

My Thoughts:
I always liked it when they did shows on real life legends. And Bloody Mary is a good one. I always found the legend to be fun.... I have a couple movies that is off of it. I think they did a good job with this episode.

My Rating:
