The movie surely wasn't fast and they did drag some scenes, But, this is exactly what I liked about the movie. The slow pace lets the emotions sink in and you feel connected somehow. The cinematography was also praiseworthy. The songs were not that good but the lyrics were well good. The choreography was also good yet decent compared to Bollywood. Some scenes could have been shortened and there were some issues with the sound too. However, the overall experience was good and it kinda overshadows all the errors. The only error that I couldn't ignore was the predictability of this movie, other than that I really liked it. The cast was great Adeel, Sanam, Shaz, Hareem and Ali Kazmi they all did justice to their roles.
I haven't actually submitted any reviews on IMDb ever, but this time i wanted to actually review because I went in with huge expectations which were slammed to pieces when i watched the movie.
Dobara phir se is a story about a guy who (a flirt) falls in love with a girl played by Hareem Farooq. The story is so predictable that i actually wanted the movie to finish early.
Positives: Good cinematography, locations, Adeel Hussain, Ali Kazmi, Hareem Farooq, Sanam Saeed, Tooba Siddique. All of the cast acted alright but Hareem Farooq needs to have some lessons on depicting emotional scenes. It was quite evident in one of the season which was supposed to be a melodramatic one where she was faking. Adeel has been very good. For me the surprise package was Ali Kazmi who came out to be one of the characters you wanted more screen time of.
Negatives: Bad sound quality, Poor pacing of the movie, Script: Okay but poorly told. Movie feels like it has been patched and cropped and cut. Disjointed. Comedy in the movie is very bad. Not even a single laughing scene.
Otherwise it was a good attempt but please next time please have a good coherent movie with good pacing and humor. Only good locations and a good cast doesn't suffice. I hope my rant gives the guys at ARY productions to have some food for thought.

Now this is called a movie. Finally someone in Pakistan has made such a movie. The filmography was very good as compared to other Pakistani movies. The acting was also very good compared to other Pakistani movies.
I don't want to comment on the story of the movie because the movie is not just all about the story. Just enjoy the movie you will forget that you are watching a Pakistani movie.

Adeel once again is very convincing with his acting. He is very natural with this character as well like he was in his previous movie Ho Mann Jahan but Hareem Farooq does not live up to the mark. Story is good somewhat I could relate with few experiences in my life. It was a good movie but could have been better.
This is the movie which have perfect soundtrack after ling time in Lollywood movies.
