Jawani Phir Nahi Ani

I expected nothing from this movie when I went to see it. I thought it's Pakistani so why not support it. The impression I had of the movie from the promotions was of a mediocre copy of a ton of Bollywood and Hollywood movies. But I had seen two Pakistani comedies recently - Na Maloom Afraad and Wrong No. - which were good so I hoped JPNA was something like that.

But JPNA not only surpassed all my expectations, it surprised me and it took Pakistani film standard to a whole another level (just like Khuda Kay Liye did when it came out, and the same with Waar).

The comedy material of this movie is highly original and entertaining thanks to the writer Vasay Chaudhry. I literally laughed out loud throughout the film. I actually appreciated the song breaks so I could catch my breath.

I was a bit reserved towards the costumes of the women and some of the drinking related scenes/situations. Not because I am not used to it, but because expecting it to be a Pakistani film, maybe it should not go down that road. But all in all what I did appreciate wholeheartedly was the type of comedy it was. Not forceful or sex-oriented, which movies with these type of topics tend to be. It was a good and clean comedy that you can enjoy with both friends and family.

The director Nadeem Baig did a very good job by holding everything together, getting the best out of the actors and making sure the movie gets a grand scale, and the movie paced smoothly, unlike Wrong No. which dragged a bit. It did not feel like or look like a low budget film, also because of all the actors who were superb in their acting and comedic timing. A special mention to Humayun Saeed who you definitely have not seen like this before. He was so good!

Go watch this with an open mind and take it as it is: A comedy film (Maybe more suited for the Pakistani audience because a lot of jokes and one liners are directed towards the Pakistani people, but I believe non-Pakistanis will also enjoy this). Highly recommended.

Watched it last night at Cinepax multiplex and man what a laughter ride it was, being Pakistani movie i was expecting it to be some typical copy of some Bollywood flicks but man they took it to whole new level. The whole cast did some awesome job to pull a genuine Pakistani comedy especially the one-liners throughout the movie were top-notch. Although it has some flaws when it comes to costumes i mean what is the purpose of going to that road of Bollywood when you can do it far better without it. One thing which was surprising form me is its music, it was enjoyable with nicely choreographed dances. All in all JPNA is not your average Bollywood like chick flick its original Pakistani entertainment so grab your tickets and watch it.

I went to see the movie here in California, thinking the movie would be a 6-7 out of 10, but once the movie started I couldn't believe how funny the movie was. People literally had tears in their eyes laughing, we couldn't believe some of the jokes could be that blunt. And it wasn't that movie was funny only in parts, it was just hilarious through out. Humayun Saeed I thought had been okay in recent movies, but in this movie he completely changed and did an excellent job. He had real expressions and moves. Movie has a pretty big cast, and all of them did an excellent job. Number one in the list of comedy movies (including Hollywood). So a 9.5 out of 10 for me.

Last night i randomly went to theater and instantly decided to watch "JAWANI PHR NAHI ANI" i haven't seen any teaser or trailer before but I must say excellent effort by director and full cast of the movie Nadeem Baig sahab good job. Entertaining Funny. Flow of the movie was amazing, character were properly synchronized, Good music and direction. Ismail Tara was good sometimes seemed like overacting. But Hamayoun Saeed Hamza Ali But, Vassy were amazing. I personal met ali he is a nice person. Over all very good effort and please keep it up. Waiting for more from you guys. Girls were also good though they didn't get much chances but over all performance was excellent.

BEST OF LUCK

yes, when u r watching movie u would find story quite familiars with some other movies of Hollywood and bollywood, but after leaving the cinema u would b still laughing from the jokes and good feeling that u did'NT waste your money... i would admit plot is not quite original but, yes, its also requires lots of talent to make an unoriginal story into such a fun ride, roller coaster ride.plus, acting was on the top of the notch,every actor did justice to his/her character,making u love them all.

the timing of jokes, quick lines, unexpected twist,strong performances, happy ending, a social message is what which make this movie a sure blockbuster.. so yes go out and watch this movie for sure
