Welcome to Karachi

'Welcome 2 Karachi' is a so-so comedy, that, despite a promising premise, isn't entirely convincing nor funny. Its a mixed-bag!

'Welcome 2 Karachi' Synopsis: Two good for nothing guys accidentally land up in Karachi, Pakistan & what follows is a series of unfortunate events.

'Welcome 2 Karachi' has some funny moments & they deserve credit for that. The first-hour is pretty fine, with the journey of its bumbling protagonists offering some good sequences. But, the film nosedives in its second-hour, which doesn't work. The narrative just falls flat. The jokes stop working & the culmination, is far from effective. In short, a lively first-hour manages some laughs, but the second-hour is entirely disappointing.

The Screenplay rides on a good premise, but it never makes much use of it. Ashish R Mohan's Direction is passable. Cinematography is eye-filling. Editing is ordinary. Music by Various Artists is energetic.

Performance-Wise: Arshad Warsi is in full goofy mode & he's mastered his comic-timing. Jackky Bhagnani puts in a sincere effort to leave an impression, but he succeeds only in parts. Lauren Gottlieb is strictly okay.

On the whole, 'Welcome 2 Karachi' is an okay watch.
