Jalaibee (Review): A lot of swag, suave and its own share of sweet and sour twists

Movie Name: Jalaibee

Release Date: March 20, 2015

Director: Yasir Jaswal

Review by: Aayan Mirza/Momin Ali Munshi

Jalaibee is unarguably the biggest Pakistani film to be releasing this year and arguably the biggest film overall to be hitting local cinemas this year as of yet. It’s not just its budget, it’s not just its colossal scale of release (Pakistan, UK and USA simultaneously), it’s not just its marketing, but it’s actually the overall aura the film has managed to create around it, something that will play a major role in whatever magic it manages to create in terms of its box office figures.

As an actual content though; in terms of its entertaining prowesses, the film, we believe, just missed the trick.

Year’s first major release “Jalaibee” is all set to be devoured on the 20th March.
