A spoof is good when reality is twisted in a very obvious way. This movie demonstrates a complete lack understanding of Pakistan. Just for clarity, Pakistan is not like a Muslim ghetto in India.
There are many comedies made by misplacing characters in different geographical situations. This is absolute rubbish.

overall movie used such bad graphics effects, poor cinematography and lame script. it was first time that i left movie at interval. not worth watching if you do not enjoy bad jokes. it was a low budget movie, actors seems to do some over action, and story line is not even keeping you interested in movie, its just a time pass movie. but not worth it. Arshad Warsi was bit better in acting but overall the acting and script was so bad, i wish i had gone to watch some other movie. i did not enjoy this movie at all. This movie reflects negativity against Pakistan, and spread wrong message to the world, it wasn't even shoot in Karachi, but they showed as it was in Karachi. Also portrayed bad image of Pakistan as a terrorist country.
I voted it 1 because there is no less rating than ONE available on IMDb. The story line is ineffective and very boring in its own origin. Making no sense at all, this film just suggests how persistent India is on trying to prove Pakistan as a Terrorist Country and a NO GO area for the citizens of the World. What is shameful is the fact that despite knowing the entire track of the movies, Many Pakistani artists decided to take part in this conspiracy. In short this is not worth watching, It is neither funny nor close to anything like Reality. Pakistan is making much more sensible movies these days, Rush to wath'em in cinemas near your house. This Movie is only a shameful act of trying to get World audience against Pakistan. If you want to know real Karachi, Visit it. P.S with your full legal documents :D Off-course .
'Welcome 2 Karachi' is a so-so comedy, that, despite a promising premise, isn't entirely convincing nor funny. Its a mixed-bag!
'Welcome 2 Karachi' Synopsis: Two good for nothing guys accidentally land up in Karachi, Pakistan & what follows is a series of unfortunate events.
'Welcome 2 Karachi' has some funny moments & they deserve credit for that. The first-hour is pretty fine, with the journey of its bumbling protagonists offering some good sequences. But, the film nosedives in its second-hour, which doesn't work. The narrative just falls flat. The jokes stop working & the culmination, is far from effective. In short, a lively first-hour manages some laughs, but the second-hour is entirely disappointing.
The Screenplay rides on a good premise, but it never makes much use of it. Ashish R Mohan's Direction is passable. Cinematography is eye-filling. Editing is ordinary. Music by Various Artists is energetic.
Performance-Wise: Arshad Warsi is in full goofy mode & he's mastered his comic-timing. Jackky Bhagnani puts in a sincere effort to leave an impression, but he succeeds only in parts. Lauren Gottlieb is strictly okay.
On the whole, 'Welcome 2 Karachi' is an okay watch.

In The Movie Welcome 2 Karachi, The Actors Arshad and Jacky has done a good job but the story of the movie is really NONSENSE. The Movie is exaggerated so much that it should be given 0/10 Marks but due to the hard work of the actors and some good humor, I had to give it 4/10 marks. The Duo goes to the Indian consulate and even a very common guy is carrying a very heavy gun (Even Intelligence officer is not having that type of gun). The movie indirectly wants to say that almost every Pakistani is a criminal and everyone in Karachi is a terrorist. After that a war begins between the consulates of the rival countries. Jacky and Arshad are kidnapped in the movie while walking on the road. A Group of Pathans attack on Arshad for speaking Against Shahid KHAN Afridi (A Pakistani Cricket Superstar). Arshad Tries to steal a pizza but even in the Pizza Box, there are weapons. All These Things try to prove that There is no other thing in Pakistan but Weapons and Pakistanis don't have anything to do but terrorism. Apart from these things, the humor (as already said) was very good and the acting skills of Arshad and Jacky made me to give them a satisfactory marks of 4/10.If the film had a better story and if it had shown some reality about Pakistan and Karachi, the rating would be different. But Good Work by Arshad and Jacky.
