Umro Ayyar - A New Beginning

From the perspective of the Pakistani movie industry, it's a decent effort, but the film suffers from weak story and character development, tedious dialogues, and lackluster acting. The actors fail to do justice to their roles, making it hard to connect with the characters or the plot. It's worth watching once, though I hoped it would compare to Maula Jutt, but it fell short of those expectations. The pacing drags in many parts, with long, boring conversations that do not add much to the narrative.

Despite these flaws, the movie shows potential, and it's clear that the industry is making strides in the right direction. The visual and technical aspects are commendable and hint at what could be achieved with better scripts and performances. On the bright side, I enjoyed the Deadpool trailer and definitely plan to watch that. Hopefully, future projects will learn from these shortcomings and deliver more compelling content. It's a step forward, but there's still a long way to go for the Pakistani film industry to reach its full potential.

An exiciting movie to watch. Good storyline with engaging twist s. Storyline is not a no brainer rather links up well with world beyond time and space something that is believable to absorb.

Vfx work is superb. Pakistan cinema needs more on this genre to expand the horizons. All actors performed well. Special mention of Versatile Sanam Saeed, Genuis of Manzar Sebai sb and Farhan Tahir's believable performance. Hamza Ali Abbasi was brilliant too and wish we could have seen him more in the movie.

I would really want that this series should expand further as Umro Ayyar has a rich history and he's a super hero who has been untapped on this massive scale. Kudos to the director and producer of this movie.

A solid 8/10.

Leisurely experience for me with a matinee at a huge cineplex with five other viewers. I'm sure I'd give it half this score if I'd seen The Matrix. For a Pakistani film, it held my interest quite well. As I was debating a bathroom run, the film helpfully announced a ten minute intermission, complete with a countdown clock on screen. More films should do this. Anything over two hours, given today's attention spans.

Amar (Usman Mukhtar) is an interesting character, a genius professor who also sees apparitions and is the last in a long line of UAs. It's cool to see him branch off into reluctant superhero mode. Guru (Manzar Sehbai) is like a Pakistani Morpheus or Yoda. This gentle and wise sould had a pretty cool vibe that I bought. I kept thinking there may be a romantic subplot with Amar and his fetching daughter, but that never came to pass. The modern portion of the film was like a free travel pass to an obscure country. Half the dialogue was conveniently English. It was nice not having to read subtitles for the entire time. The time was well spent, even though I had no idea what I was about to watch.

I went to watch this movie on the first of Eid which gets quite busy. Also convinced my friends to go along with me hoping that the movie would be good enough.

I won't say I had hopes of watching something of "maula jatt" level as I had already noticed some shortcomings in the trailer but the movie was a complete flop. There was no proper character development, the acting was so bad by most of the cast ( had some exceptions like GURU, LAQQA and hamza ali abbasi) and there was no point to it.

The fight sequences ughhh... the first fight scene in the park was so badly choreographed that even small youtubers make better sequences than that.

I am student at NUST university where some of the scenes were shot and that added to my excitement but it left me very disappointed.

I am giving it a 4 because of the vfx effects and the effort they put on for visuals, but i hope they focus more on the story if there are any plans of a sequel.

It's the story that has been done again and again although felt abit of Dr strange vibes with a mix of Harry Potter something like that but it's a soild film anyone looking for amazing story telling don't expect it here however if your the type that loves super hero origin movies give a shot although Umro Ayyar is based on a hundred year old novel but the name is only taken from the book and the rest is bran new story set in mondren times. I liked it but it felt like I had something like this before so I hope this sells well but it's up to the consumers. P.s best performance in the film are Faran Tahir, Hamza Ali Abbasi and Manzar Sehbai.
