Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Billy Ollie
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

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.

OK it was a nice try. I like animated flashbacks, music score, filming location without stating fiction city in which the story took place and a bit different story.I couldn't find credit about writing and i seem to guess that it had been done by Yasir Jaswal by himself. I am sorry to say that he didn't come to mark. He should have done better if he could get it done by a proper writer. his is why poor script bashed the movie completely and this is why it didn't deal with acting standards which were needed to compete with other Pakistani Movies. But overall its average movie because of over acting of every actor in the movie specially Ali Safina. He was supposed to act on part comedian role but the script wasn't good enough besides his pathetic acting. i really don't know that will this performance earn him a better place among upcoming Pakistani Film projects ? Danish Taimoor and Adnan Jaffer don't qualify for such criminal and action roles. Wiqar Ali Khan even doesn't have even his own voice in it. Wes Malik's voice is dubbed for him. I just know Wes Malik as i had been regular radio listener. Uzair Jaswal only got the role as his brother was directing the movie. His role useless but may be it was to only give alliance to Ali's role.

We live in an era where we are told about the glorious past of pakistani cinema but in the recent past we haven't been able to produce movies be it good or bad....There are too few movies to watch so to judge them is not fair by any standards.Still the few movies which are produced are luckily good enough to compete any cinema. Suffice to say that Jalaibee the title was a bit confusing but judging by the reviews i was eager to watch the movie.Went in with high hopes and came out satisfied.On the bright side it has a complex story which unfolds to unlikeliest of your expectations not a typical melodrama.Ali Safina is pick of the show. He is the right person for his role and fits so easily in any situation.Zhalay Sarhadi is excellent too.Sajid Hassan as always is good though he gets less screen time...Wiqar Ali if he was only given urdu dialogues to speak onto would have been easily bearable...Regarding Adnan Jafar i haven't seen this guy before but the talent he has got is scintillating...He obviously has a bright future...The one and only let down this movie has been casting of Danish Taimoor...He looks uneasy in his character and has failed to keep up with talent around him... Most of the people wont agree with unexpected end but keeeping in view director is planning to make a sequel it ll make sense too....

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.
