Jalaibee (2015)

I don't regret giving a chance to 'revived' Pakistani cinema. Even though I wasn't sure. Jalaibi is excellent movie full of entertainment, suspense and thrill. Kept me hanging on and left me wanting more!The movie conveyed strong message: avoid at any cost, short-cuts, greed and jealousy. These things get you in a far land called nowhere.

Jalaibee Review Waar, Mein hoon Sa, Namaloom Afraad, Operation 021 now JALAIBEE, PK cinema is growing surely. Jailaibee is a mystery thriller with twists in the movie till end!!! A good story but a poor direction average acting and missing background score makes JALAIBEE just an average fair. The movie is about money, Thugs , Robbery . The problem is Jaliabee miserably fails to hold the audience even though the story is really good but not properly handled. If the movie have been properly directed , it must have been a master piece like OPERATION 021. The acting is another big issue apart of DARA others have failed in acting. If proper and professional actors may have hired movie may have done much better. Even than JALAIBEE is one time watch, go for it!!!!!!!!

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.

After seeing the OK 2013 Lollywood Action Thriller Waar,I was pleased to hear that another mainstream Lollywood film was being made.With the last news that I had read about the movie being that it was having facing serious cash troubles during production,I was shocked to receive a call from a friend a few days ago,who revealed to me that Jalaibee was going to come out in 3 days time!,which led to me getting ready to take a bite of Jalaibee.The plot:Getting caught up with owing a large debt to underworld gang The Unit,best friends Billu and Bugga decide that the only way they can repay their debt is if they enter the world of dirty money themselves.Whilst the pals casts their eyes across the city for cash,a recent election has led to talks of a coalition running the country,which leads to a powerful underworld leader deciding to kidnap a leading politician,in order to get his hands on some sweet cash. View on the film:Despite Pakistan being an extremely conservative (big C) country,the screenplay by writer/director Yasir Jaswal takes a rather daring approach in unleashing a bleak Neo-Noir world,with Jaswal delving into the dirty political games of the country's leaders,and the burning hot strip clubs,brothels and gambling houses that the country's underworld leaders plan their next attacks.Named after the popular Middle Eastern sweet Jalebi,Jaswal delivers each twist in the plot with a precise manner,which leads to a superb,down-beat ending.Starting the title with the criminal and politician threads at a distance,Jaswal gradually criss-crosses the two sides,as money & power stars to seep in and corrupt both worlds.For Billu and Bugga rise to power in the underworld,director Yasir Jaswal and cinematographer Mo Azmi use neon reds and smoking yellows to create a simmering murky atmosphere.Blending into Billu & Bugga's underworld,Jaswal and Azmi give the decaying political world an elegant crystal clarity,which gets punctured with expertly handled,ultra-stylised slow motion flashes across the screen,which strike the movies darkest moments with a real force.Entering the title as a loyal team, Danish Taimoor and Ali Safina both give great performances as Billu and Bugga,with Taimoor and Safina giving the relationship a comedic playfulness which gradually fractures,as Billu and Bugga find cold hard cash to sink them both into a ruthless Neo-Noir world.Striding across the screen in a slick suit, Wiqar Ali Khan gives a very good performance as Ali,thanks to Khan peeling away Ali's ladies' man charms,to reveal a brutal Film Noir loner,who has his eyes permanently fixed on gaining power,as Ali takes a bite out of a tongue-twisting piece of Jalaibee.
