The Legend of Maula Jatt

Ok I was a bit skeptical going in because of all the hype and drama around this production but I was pleasantly surprised. Simply put- this film has high entertainment value, you will not be disappointed. Without giving away any spoilers, I think Bilal Lashari has done a great job in recreating and retelling an iconic Punjabi-Pakistani story. Having taken inspiration not only from the original Maula Jatt (1979) but also from the Ahmed Nadeem Qasmi's short story "Gandasa". I think this film does an incredible job of bringing this tale to a new generation, while still preserving the original punjabi dialogue. There's always an added pressure on the actors for remakes especially for cult-classics such as this one, however Fawad Khan as Maula Jatt and Hamza Ali Abbasi as Noori Natt did complete justice to the characters. In fact all the actors (save for one actress, you can guess who) gave solid performances. Beautiful score, incredible cinematography, all in all this film is really really wonderfully done.

I've been looking forward to this movie sins I've seen the trailer in August. I never knew it was a remake of the maula jatt 1979. So I watched the original on YouTube which was only good cause of the 2 lead characters maula jatt and nori nath. They pretty much stole the show so I was looking forward to this movie and it was a total blast coming from Pakistan. Luckily I didn't have to travel out of town to watch this movie. Again the lead 2 characters stole the show and the visuals and the story is really good to. A massive improvement from the 1979 movie and everyone should give this movie a try even Indian audiences.

Bilal Lashari is really talented, he doesn't shy away from violence, the fight scenes are really brutal.

This movie should be tax free, Pakistan film industry really needs support, this movie was delayed for so long, it's most expensive movie Pakistan ever made, should at least cross 100cr. And it might do just that since a lot of people will watch it multiple times, and the audience clapped at the end.

Action, Performances, BGM, Dialogues, Locations everything is perfect.

And good thing movie doesn't have songs in between expect what Fawad and Mahira sing in their own voice for like 45 seconds.

Fawad's transformation made me feel really skinny all of a sudden, this bulky look really suits him, and i could not imagine Fawad in such a powerful role but he really pulls it off. Deserves all the best actor awards this year.

Hamza Abbasi's Noori Natt is menace. His performance will give you chills.

Sequel is unlikely since Fawad won't gain weight again as he faced health issues because he's a diabetic but i wish they make one where Maula Jatt fights tyrants like those old japanese movies Yojimbo, Sanjaro and Seven Samurai.

There are so many scenes i wanna talk about but just go see it yourself, it deserves a theater experience.

Will watch it 2 more times, maybe even 3.

Had a great time.

It's a must see movie!!! Very entertaining display of a Punjabi urban legend. For anyone interested in Punjabi movie culture, this movie will be absolute delight. I saw this movie in Sydney, it was a full house and got a standing ovation at the end!!! Although my kids don't understand the Punjabi language, but understood and really liked the move based on the sub titles. Noori Natt was my favourite character, but all the other characters were excellent too. After watching this move I would like to see the original version of Maula jutt movie too. Best of luck to the movie team, i think it will break all records at the box office.

One of the finest movie Pakistan has made so far. A must watch flick. Gripping story, excellent performances and awesome cinematography made it feast to watch for movie lovers. "Deir se aye per Durust Aye" is the one right word for this movie. This movie will take Pakistan cinema to the next level. Direction was top notch, Fawad, Hamza and all other actors were treat to watch. Action sequences were jaw dropping. Some scenes were even better than Hollywood. In nut shell, this movie is fully "Paisa Wasool" and make you proud on Pakistani Cinema. I will recommend you to go and watch it with your family. ENJOY..!
