Laal Kabootar (2019)
Why didn't I watch it earlier?
This movie is realistic and has no over-emotional drama that most films of our neighboring countries present. In order to improve our cinema and get a worldwide appreciation and recognition, we have to depict our own culture and actualities of our society and this film did just that. All of the cast was intelligently selected. Each of the actors regardless of their part in the movie, best suited their roles and did them justice. Seeing this was only a debut from the director, it only adds to my faith in the talent that Pakistanis are overflowing with. The only thing that I didn't happen to like in the movie was its music. The music wasn't bad but none of the tracks was successful enough to draw my attention. Music is always a strong factor in the promotion of any film in a culture like ours. However, I'm sure that it will all get better.
See for Me (2021)
Watch once at least
It shows beautiful house and a slight insight into a blind person's life. Also presents some thriller and I guess you want nothing more in a film. The only thing I disagree with is.... Spoiler.
Cake (2018)
Will somebody show us someday?
Let's talk about what's good about this movie first and that's not much really. It has Mikal and Sindhi songs (although I come from Punjab and don't understand the language). Now come to what we see in this movie. The problem with Pakistani movie directors or writers is that they are westernized or Bollywoodised. As long as they are either of the two in their personal lives, it doesn't matter. However, when they portray their favorite, ideal and unrealistic lifestyle to be an image of our beautiful Pakistan. It annoys me. If you make movies in Pakistan, they should be based on the majority of Pakistanis. I'm truly waiting for the day when I see a film and say,"This is us."
Citizen Khan (2012)
I'm going puke!
Wait what? Citizen Khan? You could've named it Citizen Singh and I'd have been okay. The show lacks basic concepts of professionalism. If they were going to shoot a drama about Pakistani Muslims, the caste had to come from Muslim origin as well but no, they are all Indian Hindus. They don't look or speak like us then how are they supposed to represent us. Also, this show aims to be making fun of Muslims and. They could make it comedy keeping our cultural and religious values intact but it seems they didn't want to do that.
Del (2019)
Don't go for rating.
Del comes with emotions, beauty, thrill, great acting, amazing music, well structured and gripping story and you won't believe that its as little as less then 3 after watching it. You'll also love and recommend it. I'm from Pakistan and I can't say how much I love this drama. I wish we could also make such great shows one day. The only thing I don't like is that they sometimes prolong it. They could reduce the number of episodes. Thanks.
Sokoote Rana (2015)
Beautiful, Innocent and Pure
This film has comedy, beautiful locations of Gilan (Iran's province), lesson of love and honesty. It teaches family and social values. It shows us how the world around us can be a happy place if we start taking care of each other.
Paradise (2016)
A Super Underrated Movie
I decided to watch this movie because I am learning Farsi. Looking at the IMDB Rating, I did not have high hopes but as you know that thess rating nowadays mean nothing. This movie contains comedy, emotions, unexplored perspectives and moral lessons. What else do you want? I am amazed at the people who have rated it so low. I recommend this movie to everyone who is looking for a humor and an insight into Irani culture and beauty.
Negar's Role (2014)
A good lesson told in a beautiful way
This film teaches us that we should think clearly before getting into a relationship rather than just jumping into it. If we start off a marriage with little lies and think it is going to be okay, we are very wrong and the end is likely to be sad and bad.
Marriage Story (2019)
Watch A Separation instead
This movies was good but its story was basically like the Iranian Oscar winner, A Separation. It even ended like that, suddenly. It is possible that those living in US like it more but I am not of it so sure.
Us (2019)
What was it?
This movie is a load of bullocks like most movies these days. There is no story in it, no thrill and no horror. Baseless. And upon that a rating of six points nine. What's happening to this world?
Laila Majnu (2018)
How Could it be Good?
I have stopped beliving IMDB reviews now. How can a movie be good if the makers of it ignore the rudimentary elements? The film was about a Musilm boy and a girl but the actors playing those roles are both not only ugly but also Non-muslim. They even spelled Majnun wrong. Now, the movie that was about Muslims should have been in Urdu but the dialouges were all Hindi. Urdu accent and wording is much different from Hindi but the moviemakres seem to have no understanding of it. Now, let's come to the story and acting. Or maybe not, cos it.. it's just not worth it.Please, don't waste your time. Or maybe do, cos then you will agree with me.
Lahore Se Aagey (2016)
Can Make You Laugh.
I wanted to see this movie as it was Pakistani and finally saw it thanks to ARYMip (YouTube Channel). The movie shows beautiful locations from Pakistan but they could do much better in that regard. Saba Qamar's acting was as good as it always is. Yasir Hussain seems to be a great actor. There was comedy in movie and also some emotional moments which shows that the director was intelligent enough. The movie had songs like Bollywood movies which is something I don't personally like. I want our movies to be different and more realistic. The songs Qalabaz is good but it was an attempt to copy the Ghaagra from Jawani Phir Nahi Aani. I will appreciate more if our filmmakers give us our own culture rather than that of any other film industry.
