The smallest summary I can give for this movie is: "Marvel's Dr. Strange meets Assassin's Creed Brotherhood", though I don't know how many would get the reference.
Pros:
Cons:
Overall, a good movie suitable for the whole family.
Pros:
- Nice CGI.
- Good action scenes.
- Decent acting by all, especially Guru, Laqqa & Hamza.
- Good storyline.
- No stupid dance scenes or tedious romance triangles.
Cons:
- CGI, though good, can be improved, like allowing the demon to close his mouth.
- Too many talkative boring bits which can be trimmed.
- Majority of the humorous bits were horribly misplaced. This was my biggest concern. A serious scene completely ruined by a stupid joke!

Initially, after reading the bad reviews here, I thought to skip this series, but later decided to watch it anyway. I was not a big fan of the various series launched by Marvel in its history, with a few exceptions. However, after watching this, I don't understand where the hate is coming from?
The series is a light take on what would happen if the Hulk was female. Women do tend to be smarter than men (I may be a guy but this is true). We may not know what goes on inside their heads, but then they do tend to surprise us men, on occasion. In today's world, even with women rights on the rise, women still tend to suffer more than men. This leads to better anger management skills, which would be a focal point for a She-Hulk. That is what happens here. The added comedy actually made the show better for me. Granted the ton of cameos do tend to take the spotlight away from the main character but the show was still worth watching.
I think the "fans" actually wanted to see a lot of smash action, which was missing. Even I thought there would be more. What's the point of saving it for the next season? The bits of fight scenes present were underwhelming. I would have liked to see another season, though. Sadly, because of some impatient & nostalgic children, that may never happen.

Overall, I found the movie to be quite entertaining, what with the special effects and the sound track. The acting was good, even though none of the actors were native punjabi speakers.
The almost kissing scenes, girls roaming with boyfriends in the open, the easy access to alcohol and loose female dressing is totally against the Pakistani village culture even now, let alone in the 60s. This is the point which cost it the 2 stars. Thank God that there were no item songs included. As for those people who say that the original was better, punjabi movies then were jokes. MASSIVE overacting, unrealistic action, dance scenes from fat leading ladies, you make it. As kids, we use to watch them when we wanted a laugh. This movie actually made the premise serious.
