Dishoom movie review: John Abraham and Varun Dhawan’s movie is designed like a fast-paced caper but lacks impact. It shines in bits and pieces but the rest is a stretch.

Dishoom movie cast: John Abraham, Varun Dhawan, Saqib Saleem, Jacqueline Fernandez, Akshaye Khanna, Rahul Dev, Nargis Fakhri, Tarun Khanna
Dishoom movie director: Rohit Dhawan
Dishoom rejigs the buddy cop movie, with John Abraham and Varun Dhawan being assigned to the “Case Of A Vanishing Indian Cricketer”.
The film is fashioned as a fast-paced caper. It’s got flash but the plot keeps stuttering and stops the film from really zip-zap-zooming. And in the second half, it nose dives, meandering off in some Arabian Nights style fantasy space before remembering what it had set out to do.
