Elaan really entertained me. I especially loved Rahul Khanna's acting in this one. I also loved the special friendship that the five heroes developed as they plotted the ultimate demise of Baba, an evil man who needed his just desserts. Arjun... Full review
Sleek action thriller despite lack of story

Mithun "Dada" makes a great comeback as the antagonist in this action-packed thriller. He proves his worth in the climax of the movie with his convincing expressions and dialogues. Action is fantastic. Set in Europe, the action sequences are very thrilling.... Full review

Fortunately, I haven't seen any of the other movies that many reviewers state have had bits copied from them in Elaan. So, I didn't think this was a bad film. The multiple location approach made for great scenery (although I had... Full review

alright movie with alot of action and a good storyline.

He decides not to pay him and mithun orders to kill him. After his death Rahul is angry and wa nts revenge, mithun is hiding abroad so Rahul hires a group of specialists to do the job. He hires arjun who is a ex-cop, and john who is a ex-worker for mithun. Amisha patel is a reporter and is in love with Rahul and follows him. They find mithun and plan to kill each of his members to get to him. Lara is a lover of john and the girlfriend of mithun. With her help they get to kno his wereabouts and the mission is set to break down his group and kill. Arjun dies during this process and mithun is caught and taken to india where he is given a life sentence to death. Amisha and rahul get together and they adopt arjun's daughter and lara-john walk away with their fee. Amisha looks hot in this movie, giv it a watch, if not for the storyline then just watch her, lol

Arjun Rampal, John Abraham, Rahul Khanna, Amisha Patel and Lara Dutta, Elaan is special for one more reason -....But the music is nothing spectacular and seems to be a mere gap-filler.....Sets are imaginative, costumes revealing....Not one of the better compositions by Anu Malik, it will hold value mainly due to the video.....well one may just hear it in the movie!!.... ...

John Abraham and Arjun Rampal make Elaan watchable.....Its clichéd story with predictable ending doesn't arouse any interest in a viewer.....delivers an excellent performance.....Lara Dutta is admirable.....And there is Priya (Amisha), an intrepid and enterprising TV reporter, who will stop at nothing to get a sensational story for her channel..... ...
