Zarrar

Watched the Movie yesterday in full house.

Loved the cinematography and was pleasantly surprised with an engaging story that kept the interest.

Music and Sings could have been better and Shaan needs to work on them in future endeavors.

The heroine although a newcomer has performed strongly against a seasoned actor like Shaan.

The Villains are also good.

Investment done on foreign talent and technology can do wonders for the movie and overall Pakistani cinema history.

With Maula Jatt, and then Zarrar, it seems Pakistani cinema is standing up strongly. Looking forward to more of such entertaining packages.

Well after success of Maula jutt there were some more expectations from Zarar which it fails to deliver. There were so many flaws in this film .Loud sound on unnecessary scenes was awful. Heroine didn't act well although she had nice bottom figure. Romance was forced into tense scenes. Songs placement were wrong! The only good thing in movie was Shan itself he looked stunning at big screen but direction isn't his cup of tea i guess .Moreover lead actress didn't do justice with her role. Other than that repetitions of dialogue caused frustration .

There wasn't any twist in movie it was straight forward .I suggest you to not waste money on it unless you are die hard fan of shan!

I literally wanted to commit suicide after watching this movie

Like there is so much wrong in this movie The camera is handled in such an immature wah.

The sound quality is too bad.

Story is not build up.

Characters are non attachable.

And the action scenes? You wouldn't even realise what is happening on the screen because there are too many cute and bad angles, plus the visuals are outdated.

I left this movie when the intermission happened

There is an emotional scene which was taken all in one shot and i could literally see that the actor was continuously looking at the dialogues maybe written on the desk for her.

Overall i would say don't waste your time and money on movies like this Good luck.

If I had to summarise the movie in one word, I would say it's 'forced.'

From head to toe, from the establishing shot to the end scene, from action to the placement of songs, everything was forced and outright bad.

5 minutes into the movie and I knew I had been made. That Shan with all his cynicism about other filmmakers and their tv-like films, with his image of the true film man, had fooled me dearly.

Who writes such childish dialogues? Who writes such a bad story? It was all so bad that I felt embarrassed that for some foreign cast members, this was their introduction to a Pakistani film.

It was as if a child directed that movie. A child who had just discovered slow-mo, hand-held camera sequences (or whatever that blurry crap was), and background music. Half the time, the background music was so loud and ill-placed that you won't even hear the dialogues.

The movie was so ill-planned that Urdu dubbing seemed like an after thought as half the characters were running their lips for English dialogues yet the voice coming out spoke Urdu. Urdu or English, the dialogues was plainly bad.

The only saving grace for the movie were its songs. Not their placement, not their picturization, but the melodies.

I am simply surprised that Zarrar is by the same storyteller who, in past, has given us a film like Zilleh Shah. Shan needs to stop directing himself because he isn't doing himself any favors there.

Man, the potential the idea had, yet...

The storyline is very flawed, direction looks like of a Tv Series. Its a high budget action and suspense but fails in everything, very loud and illogical background music in every scene. The actress could not do her worse in acting. This could not be matched with Maula Jutt and the standard it created for Pakistani cinema.

They spent alot in CGI which was not required instead they could do better story and characters which wasn't a requirement.

Dialogues are very average and normal TV series has better dialogues.

Overall its very average and you should wait for DVD or OTT instead of going cinema to watch this.
