I was eagerly awaiting the release of this film since the first teaser was out on YouTube with the thoughts that finally Pakistan breaking the stereotypes of comedy movies to present some Valory stories of armed forces. I dismayed when the 🎬 was delayed due to technical errors. Finally, the film got released in March this year with lackluster receptions from critics and audiences. At first, I was shocked but after watching the final product, I thought that this film richly deserved what it achieved in its cinematic run.
Thankfully, I didn't watch it in the cinema, but it arises so many questions in my mind that how can products like that end in cinema halls?
Project Ghazi is a confusing tale of two Pakistani Superheroes, which is underdeveloped throughout the duration. The main motive of Project Ghazi remains unclear. Why was the program started? Who authorized it? What were the special skills of the selected soldiers? How Major Zain (Sheharyar Munawar) developed those skills? Were they, superheroes?
The acting was chaotic from the main lead. Both Sheharyar Munawar and Syra Shehroz were pathetic in their roles, seems robotic with their dialogue delivery. Talat Hussain and Adnan Jaffar shine through the lost script. They were aced in their underdeveloped roles as Qataaan and Dr. Zia.
Humayun Saeed was underutilized in his role. His presence made him watch this full movie which seems like mixtures of many soap operas.
The direction was pathetic, Script was lousy and Action scenes were terrible, Hand to Hand combats shaky but costume designing was good.
The makers terribly recreated Universal Soldier with only patriotism, in their mind. Super Heroism isn't about CGI, robots, tanks and super skills they also need basic stories for their origin which was the weak point of Project Ghazi.
No Story, No Super Powers
Only Patriotism.
