Jalaibee (2015)
Par
lets start off by saying that the title has nothing to do with the plot except that the plot itself is the title. The movie starts off in a very traditional manner and continues to do so for about the first 40 mins and till then the film is going nowhere but takes a couple of good twists which were unpredictable and good to see.
Technically the movie wasn't that bad and the director has done some pretty neat stuff, my only problem though was the camera work, it felt like they were trying to pull off something completely new but mostly ended up in some really shitty camera angles, there was also a bit of shaky cam in the start which did not work at all.
The acting was satisfactory in general, Sajid Hassan and Adnan Jaffar did extremely well but Danish and Sabeeka were too bad, Danish was going for that macho Salman khan thing which was well disappointing to say the least while Sabeeka was nothing more than a Katrina Kaif wannabe.
The movie was filled with cinematic clichés and Bollywood humor which is not all appropriate for the Pakistani "family" audience not to mention the completely needless item song, the curse words and the excess drinking scenes. There were some definite sins in there the most prominent being Islamabadi people using Karachi accents and Karachi slang. The jokes weren't really funny and the references were not working.
In conclusion, Jalibee is decent enough movie and is not as bollywood-ish as "Na Maloom Afraad" or "Main hoon Shahid Afridi" and deserves a watch.
My Rating 6/10
Na Maloom Afraad (2014)
Not bad.... Not bad at all..........
This movie has brought forward a new face of the newly resurrected Pakistani film industry i.e Humor and I have to say it did a pretty good job at it. The movie had some beyond hilarious scenes including some jokes on our very own Mr. Tuk Tuk , Amir bhai and KESC and showed Karachi like never before, the screenplay and the cinematography were epic and the direction was pretty neat as well (but some definite sins in movie which were pretty hard to miss) and the strike/riot scenes were insane. The actors though didn't quite deliver like they should have and a few of them looked like they were trying too hard. The only thing wrong with this movie was the frequent deja' vu I kept on having because a lot of things were taken from Indian movies and that is where they faulted, if I wanted to see cheap Indian-ish jokes and a totally meaningless and inappropriate item song, I would have watched some Indian comedy. But all in all the movie was good and even surprised me in a couple of occasions.... My Recommendation: It's a must watch.
