Thanks for the memories!
Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
while reading the top reviews, yes i would definitely agree that the only thing watchable in the entire non stop irritating movie like this is Yasir Hussain / Moti. This guy has done one tremendous job with his lines, jokes and timings. Hats off...!! As for the rest of the movie: 1. Shehzad Sheikh Too much over acting, like there is a little much then there is too much and there is like hell lot of much. Shehzan ensured to even crossed that line. Main role but never for a second up to the level. He was forcing himself for the acting, perhaps he was taught that since his father is a big time Pakistan Industry Actor, so the acting would come to him naturally. 2. Ayesha Omar OK, she was forcely included in the movie. A middle class girl, all of sudden in agreement for a road trip with three guys out of which only one is known to her as a very bad neighbour, then changing her outfit from Shalwar Kameez to Jeans and Sleeveless Top was not digestible. 3. Moti / Yasir Hussain The only life in the movie. The only one with comic timings and style. 10/10 for him. I am seeing review O Watch this movie for revival of Pakistani Cinema. Watch the movies in order to encourage them. Fine i understand but that does not have to be on a price of complete torture. In short, boring and too boring. But if u do watch it perhaps the character of Moti will give u some satisfaction.
I was too excited to watch this movie and of course it was worth a watch. The storyline was not too strong but the acting overall was good (except in some parts). It is great to see Pakistan Film studio progressing day and night but a indeed a great improvement is needed. The movie was quite boring at start but as the time passes interest develops and the jokes were quite humorous and the best thing about the movie was it's constant flow not causing the watcher feel drowsiness or tiredness. Shortly, A good movie about friendship , love and indeed a refreshing story. The movie could be better in terms of acting and storyline. So, Expecting more like this type of (comedy) movies from the Pakistani Media.
The most common issue that is raised by people about Pakistani film industry is that the script of the movie is usually not engaging plus the dialogues are either inspired from Bollywood movies or reinvented from our dramas. With the release of movies like Namaloom Afraad, Waar, Wrong No. and Bol, Pakistani films have proved that they are worthy of being watched at least once. Karachi Se Lahore is directorial debut of Wajahat Rauf. Karachi Se Lahore has launched some great performers on silver screen like Ayesha Omer, Ahmed Ali, Yasir Hussain etc. Will Karachi Se Lahore be another turning stone for Pakistani Cinema? Let's discover. Karachi Se Lahore is a rom-com road trip of Zaheem (Shehzad Sheikh) who comes to know that his girlfriend Ashi (Eshita Syed) is planning to dump him by getting married to Timmy in Lahore. After learning the reality, Zaheem with his two friends Sam (Ahmed Ali) and Moti (Yasir Hussain) plans to leave for Lahore to crash the wedding of Ashi. They don't have a dependable ride, so they take help from Zaheem's neighbor Maryam (Ayesha Omer) and her younger brother Zeezu who own a jeep. What happens next on the road is all about cherishing friendship, treasuring loved ones and finding love. Karachi Se Lahore rests on the shoulders of script and dialogues – hands down. Hats off to the writer and actor Yasir Hussain for beautifully writing the characters and performing Moti which would easily remind some great performers of the past like Moin akhter and Saleem Nasir. Yasir essays his character with originality and with complete gusto. He is a treat to watch, no second opinion. Ahmed Ali as Sam is adorable and shows qualities of a super star who showcases accurate expressions when needed. His cool attitude, lame jokes and body language is just so very believable. Shehzad Sheikh in his second movie has shown huge improvement. His dialogue delivery, diction, fast paced statements and acting skills have multiplied. He can easily be a good comic hero of Pakistani cinema because of his great comic timings. Ayesha Omer is good. She sizzles in the item song "Tutty Fruity". Eshita Syed hams a lot. Javed Sheikh is wasted, he is one fine actor and should be given more screen presence Rasheed Naz is outstanding, each and every of his scene are definitely going to bring laughter and smiles to viewers' faces. As a kid, Ashir Wajahat is good and very confident. Karachi Se Lahore is studded with cameos of Waqar Zaka, Rubya Chaudhry, Ali Hamza, Shiraz Uppal, Shazia Wajahat, Ali Noor etc. Wajahat Rauf has definitely worked hard on the script and filming. Karachi Se Lahore offers a freshness and good script. It's a total entertainer with some great one liners, jokes, and humor that one does not come across in Pakistani cinema. Tutty Fruity, Rabi Ralli and Aaja Re are picks of the lot whereas Lohriya gives the typical Punjabi track. Watch Karachi Se Lahore if you want to laugh out louder and witness how a simple and easy storyline can be engaging and interesting for viewers. Karachi Se Lahore is no PK, Waar, Bajrangi Bhaijaan but it's also nothing less than Na Maloom Afraad, Pyar Ka Punchnama and other hit laugh riots. I would rate it 3.5 out of 5 for fresh humor, Yasir's and Sam's acting.
What a summer it has been for the Pakistani film industry, first "Wrong No." and now this. Well look at bright side, it can only get better from here (I guess)."Karachi say Lahore" fails to offer anything more than poorly placed product(s), a band of actors with no chemistry and yet another needless and inappropriate item song (I mean I know it's Ayesha Omar but "Tooti fruity hoon main, beauty cutie hoon main", it's like they're not even trying anymore).It was evident from the trailer that this was a very typical script but whats more annoying is the execution. This movie failed on every possible level and is definitely the worst Pakistani movie to come out in these recently past years.The actors were so bad (especially Shehzad, Ayesha and Ishita), it felt like someone had picked them up from a cheap infomercial shoot and dragged them to this movie and finally the ugly direction was just the icing on the cake.Other than one good song and one good joke (literally just one), the movie was a complete waste of time and is nothing less than an insult to the Pakistani film industry.
