After reading the plot i knew it's going to be a mixture of Pulp Fiction,lock stock and 2 smoking barrels, rock n rolla ,etc.. and yes it was ..but hey that's not a bad thing ..good things should always inspire you..BUT.. what about the dialogues ,acting ,music and above all direction..
Dialogues were weak.. could have been better..
Acting was excellent from Sajid Hassan Sb,Ali Safina,Adnan Jaffar and danish taimoor.
Music was Just OK.. not as good as Our PAKISTANI music generally is..
Danish taimoor's face is way to innocent for his character.. and somebody please tell me who put wiqar ali khan in that role..he did a 50/50 job..the item number lacked a lot of qualities for being an item number,Z Sarhadi didn't look like a bar girl at all.Adnan jaffar did a good job i must say..
Finally two things: everything about Ali Safina was good.. his dialogue delivery his acting and that perplexed, quizzical look on his face did the job for him and the over all camera work of the movie was spectacular..
Over all a decent time pass nothing more.. do watch it after all its a PAKISTANI film.

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.
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.

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.

Everyone wants to be respected and appreciated for their work and God knows there are people in this world who don't deserve it. But there are very few people who have the courage to dream and follow it, last night I witnessed just another great movie from lolly wood Wish best of luck to ARYfilms for making such a good entertaining movie
I request everyone to go see the film at least once as it is truly a proud moment for Pakistan and no one deserve more respect and appreciation than the team of JALAIBEE.
I wish the momentum of this type of movies carry on
The people who deserve special mention are the young and upcoming actors and the script writer, This surely will mark the start of revival of Pakistani cinema.
