Goods & Bad- Yalghaar Review:

Pakistani Army lovers are mostly loving and enjoying the Film.  As it shows the emotional tale of the Pakistani army’s courage and action with romance. The humour is thrown in to lighten the mood. The movie happily achieves it’s aim of highlighting the spirit of Sacrifice, Jazba, Junoon and above all, the Emaan (belief) of officers and jawans of Pakistan Army. It successfully brings forth the experiences that the family members especially the army wives go through on daily basis.

The Cinematography, Graphics/Editing, Action, Thrill, Gadgetry/Weapons, Costumes/Uniforms, Acting all is good.  The music is really good to hear. All 5 songs got the attention. But most of the people are saying they are out of the script. The purpose of the movie was to display Pakistan Army’s effort in the war of terror. And Yalghaar gives you a good dose of patriotism and shows exactly that.

Some funny scenes/talk sequences were good enough to laugh about for a bit but will not give you laughter. On the other hand, the overall army interaction (which by the way gained this review a 4-star rating) reminded me of a good ole’ Alpha Bravo Charlie Days of PTV.

A bit compromised and somehow weak story, lack the depth. Didn’t show the true picture of army family lives back at home. The Sequence of events, Excessive military operations throughout the film. Some people resemble it with the WAAR (2013) Movie. The story is not properly summarized. You cannot just start 5-6 different stories within a movie and leave them without a proper ending.

May be Yalghaar isn’t Perfect, but have enough to provide solid Entertainment.

Best & Worst Acting by the Characters:

Lets first talk about the best acting. Bilal Ashraf and Shaan Shahid won the game. They both perform brilliantly according to their roles.  Gohar Rasheed and Ayesha also good. Umair Jaswal tried hard to be funny but failed big times. Sikander Rizvi didn’t do the justice. Humayun Saeed a good actor with romantic sense was not suitable for Villain type of role. Someone else then him can perform better than him. Well he tried his best to give the role a genuine touch.
