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.

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

If you ever wondered if Pakistan makes stylish films in the tradition of Guy Ritchie or even Matthew Vaughn, then look no further. Jalaibee is the real treat. It's a caper crime thriller that will captivate you from its topsy turvy opening to its topsy turvy closing.

The plot revolves around two orphan friends who get tangled up big time with one complication after another in a desperate attempt to repay a debt they owe to the local mafia. At the same time two brothers exact revenge on the king of the said mafia. Things go haywire as more characters cross each others paths that leads to a roguish ending.

The score and the soundtrack are cool.The topnotch direction, the stellar cinematography and the wicked screenplay will make you forget the few shortcomings in the acting department.

Trivia, this was the first Pakistani film to be shot with an Arri Alexa. And yes, it also features a Ford Mustang 73.

This jalaibee is crunchy, sweet and tantalizing. Highly recommended for a bite.

Jalaibee was a fun experience, a film that had everything. A crime caper interweaving around three different stories that meet at the climax. More of a pulp fiction style but considerably less gritty. It had humour action and a perfect ending with a very wise message that short cut in life leads to ruin. I am not going to give any further details however I would thoroughly recommend this movie if you want to be entertained. The visuals were stunning and with great camera work. The background score was great and so were the few songs in the movie. The only negatives were the little wooden acting by Wiqar Ali a Khan which is understandable as his first language is not Urdu and he mainly spoke in English.

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.
