Rona with Drona

The choice was between Kidnap and Drona - tickets were available for both but the wife said Drona, so Drona it was. Terrible mistake. What a waste of a movie. Abhishek tries to pay a superhero and completely sucks at it - he sleepwalks through the movie as if he was forced to do the movie. He looks too ordinary to carry off a superhero act anyway. 

The director seems to feel that a series of visually great ad clips can make a movie - Drona proves him wrong. In the absence of a coherent and progressive storyline, there is an attempt to make every scene look like a climax. Inspite of the obviously desperate attempts, there are no redeeming moments in the entire movie. Not a single scene that tugs at your empotions in any way - NONE. 

The only  good thing about the movie is Priyanka, who looks ravishing. I think she'd have done a better job if she were the super-heroine.

The songs are poor and the background music is terrible enough to give you a headache. One of the worst I have ever heard in my life and there's too much of it.
