Jalaibee

This movie was given a very good media promotion prior it's release. The promotion was successful to the extent that people who rarely watched TV knew that when this movie will be released.

I therefore managed to get the 1st day show through some resources and experienced a jam packed cinema.

The movie though, lived up to the commercial expectations. All characters played there part well once compared to their experience in the movie industry. Especially the lead male Danish and his comical partner kept the audience entertained throughout. The comedy in the movie is above average. However cinematography and direction is very good.

The story however is twisted and twisted, mimicking the title of the movie. And for a 2hrs movie , so many twists have lead to complicating a yet good story plot.

The music is overall pretty good however same cannot be said about the songs. The girls cast has also been selected pretty carefully as all leads are pretty, considering a commercial movie.

I personally wanted to see a different ending to what actually happens however, the end of the movie was basically a turn down for me.

Nevertheless, hats off to the entire crew for putting up a good show for their audience considering the experience the while cast and crew had prior to this movie.

A definite recommendation to all those viewers who are looking for a family movie with comedy and a twisted story residing in the subcontinent.

Jalaibee Review Waar, Mein hoon Sa, Namaloom Afraad, Operation 021 now JALAIBEE, PK cinema is growing surely. Jailaibee is a mystery thriller with twists in the movie till end!!! A good story but a poor direction average acting and missing background score makes JALAIBEE just an average fair. The movie is about money, Thugs , Robbery . The problem is Jaliabee miserably fails to hold the audience even though the story is really good but not properly handled. If the movie have been properly directed , it must have been a master piece like OPERATION 021. The acting is another big issue apart of DARA others have failed in acting. If proper and professional actors may have hired movie may have done much better. Even than JALAIBEE is one time watch, go for it!!!!!!!!

OK it was a nice try. I like animated flashbacks, music score, filming location without stating fiction city in which the story took place and a bit different story.

I couldn't find credit about writing and i seem to guess that it had been done by Yasir Jaswal by himself. I am sorry to say that he didn't come to mark. He should have done better if he could get it done by a proper writer. his is why poor script bashed the movie completely and this is why it didn't deal with acting standards which were needed to compete with other Pakistani Movies.

But overall its average movie because of over acting of every actor in the movie specially Ali Safina. He was supposed to act on part comedian role but the script wasn't good enough besides his pathetic acting. i really don't know that will this performance earn him a better place among upcoming Pakistani Film projects ? Danish Taimoor and Adnan Jaffer don't qualify for such criminal and action roles. Wiqar Ali Khan even doesn't have even his own voice in it. Wes Malik's voice is dubbed for him. I just know Wes Malik as i had been regular radio listener. Uzair Jaswal only got the role as his brother was directing the movie. His role useless but may be it was to only give alliance to Ali's role.

Few lackings But a good effort, selection of the main lead might bring

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
