Na Maloom Afraad

I've watched this movie twice and no doubt this is one the best efforts Pakistani movie makers have made. When you have short budget and limited tech, it is hard to compete with international standards but this movie has crossed those limits and is indeed far better than many of Bollywood movies. All of the actors has performed very well but performance of Javed Sheikh is outstanding. Fahad Mustafa has done also very well and did justice to his role and proved he is capable to handle lead roles.

Two things could have been more better, 1. thrills, there a lot of moments where it could have been more thrillers. 2. Using extras in scene, there are some moments, where common public notices the camera and actors.

First off, I want to say that I didn't have many expectations from NMA considering that it was a film by newbies but 10 minutes into the movie I was awe-struck with the fluidity of it all. Barring the final few minutes, NMA is exceptional.

Many people say that it is 'copied off' of other flicks like Hera Pheri and Delhi Belly. Yes, it borrows some elements from these films but that doesn't make it a copy but rather an inspired venture.

The best thing about this movie is the cinematography. It is brilliant. The camera angles used throughout flick add another dimension to the film. May it be fixed on a box of gulab jamuns or the corner of a rickshaw; the DoPs of NMA have done an exceptional job in making it a visual treat.

Acting-wise I would say that everyone played their roles to perfection apart from Urwa and Kubra. Their characters, specifically Kubra's bank manager avatar, were a tad too weakly acted for the script.

And Billi, how can I miss her? Her sultry item song was a cherry-topping for the movie. I have seen many item songs from across the border and I can safely say that Mehwish Hayat's Billi trumps them all. It is simplistic and yet very, very catchy.

My only complaint with this movie is the ending. In my opinion it should have ended 4-5 minutes before rather than being dragged out like that. It was sort of an anti-climax and looks obtrusively forced.

Conclusively, an awesome film that is well worth the time for the laughs it produces. However, on a note of caution (considering our non-existent rating system), it is strictly not a family-friendly film as some jokes/scenes are quite lurid!

I love this movie, it's entirely made in Pakistan and 100% reflects the Pakistani culture. Also the first Pakistani movie entirely shot with Arri Alexa. cinematography is superb. each and every scene is hilarious. The legend actor Javed Sheikh's performance is amazing. and Fahad Mustafa and Mohsin Abbas have also done a great justice to their rolls. I like the cute romance between Farhan and Naina. I really enjoyed the movie and I would suggest everyone to watch this movie at lease once than decide if it's worth watching again or not, but i am sure you will forget all other boring action movies. The director Nabeel Qureshi, Producer Fizza Ali Meerza, the Actor Fahad Mustafa and Mohsin Abbas reminds me of the Sam Raimi's debut film The Evil Dead which was released in 1981, and they were promoting their movie exactly the same way. There is so much similarity between those young boys and our these young Pakistani's. I wish them all luck and hope that they will be successful in the every next movie they would make.

Went to the cinema today after quite a few days of the film's release with a lot of expectations... and got just that. Brilliantly made, fast paced, great story line, some masala (such as the item number "Billi" ) without ever compromising the quality of the film. And lots of humour. Kept me entertained throughout. Some brilliant work from our Pakistani artists. Javed Shaikh was completely convincing as the stuttering landlord and with many surprising qualities to his personality (as you shall discover towards the end of the film). Fahad Mustafa has come a long way since his initial drama days with brilliant acting. the film makers have done a fantastic job. For long i had been hoping to see a light-note pakistani film. Na maloom afraad gave me just that along with its true-to-life gory and grimy depictions of Karachi's underbelly. Hope to see more stuff from the "filmwalas". Would recommend it fully. *thumbs up*

No words. I mean beyond idiotic. I know these people steal and copy western scripts but this is overwhelmingly obvious Here in this movie. Everything is predictable. They try to make a masterpiece plan which only becomes more confusing and more idiotic. I really don't know rust going on. Even s comedy movie has its base on something tangible something real but nope not here. I challenge any non pakistani cinema affecianado o watch this crap and tell me it aint bad. It looks bad for the entire country if they are celebrating this garbage as a comedy hit. Talk about low standards and getting lucky.
