FUBAR (2023– )

Thrills and Bonds
22 February 2024
FUBAR delivers a compelling mix of action and drama, with strong performance by actors, especially Arnold Schwarzenegger. The series stands out for its engaging storytelling and the chemistry between the characters, making every episode a thrilling ride. The dynamics within the story, particularly the father-daughter relationship, add depth to the narrative, making it not just about the missions but also about personal growth and connections. The action sequences are well-executed (average), providing suspense and excitement that keep you hooked. It successfully blends its thematic elements to create a show that's not only entertaining but also resonates on a more personal level with its audience.

Zindagi tamasha bani, Duniya da haasa bani
23 August 2023
It's a truly remarkable film that takes a bold look at the complexities of society. The movie presents a heartfelt narrative that reveals the hidden truths and double standards prevalent in our world. Through its captivating storytelling, the film dives into themes of judgment, hypocrisy, and the misuse of religion.

Sarmad Khoosat's directorial finesse is evident in every frame. He didn't disappoint me, and my love for his direction and acting has increased. The movie doesn't just tell a story; it raises thought-provoking questions about our society's values and behaviors. It was an emotional rollercoaster and I felt the pain of the main character.

A must watch for everyone, don't know who are the idiots who banned it.

Action-Packed and Entertaining, But Lacks Story Dept
8 July 2023
John Wick 4 continues the adrenaline-fueled saga of the infamous hitman, and while it delivers on the intense action sequences that fans have come to expect, it falls slightly short when it comes to the overall storytelling. As a devoted fan of the franchise, I was left somewhat disappointed by the lack of a compelling narrative, but the sheer excitement and well-choreographed fight scenes managed to salvage the viewing experience.

One of the major strengths of the John Wick series has always been its captivating storylines, woven intricately into a world of assassins and complex underworld politics. Unfortunately, in this installment, the narrative feels somewhat thin and fails to provide the same level of depth we have grown accustomed to. The plot lacks the intricate layers and surprises that made the previous films so memorable. It feels like a missed opportunity to further explore the fascinating mythos surrounding John Wick and the High Table.

That being said, where the film does excel is in its action sequences. John Wick 4 undoubtedly delivers on its promise of heart-pounding, jaw-dropping fights. The choreography is exceptional, showcasing Keanu Reeves' undeniable skills and the dedication of the entire stunt team. Every battle is meticulously crafted and executed, leaving audiences on the edge of their seats. The film manages to find innovative ways to showcase Wick's resourcefulness and combat prowess, ensuring that fans of the franchise won't be disappointed.

Aside from the action, the film's production values are top-notch. The stylish cinematography, coupled with the sleek and visually captivating set designs, creates a gritty and immersive world. The attention to detail in creating a consistent aesthetic is commendable, and it further adds to the overall enjoyment of the film.

Although the story may not have lived up to expectations, John Wick 4 still manages to entertain with its relentless action and gripping fight scenes. Fans of the franchise will undoubtedly find pleasure in witnessing Wick's legendary skills once again. However, it is worth noting that newcomers to the series might struggle to fully appreciate the film without the context provided by the previous installments.

Point Break (2015)
8/10
An Action-Packed Thrill Ride
10 February 2023
Point Break is an action film that follows an FBI agent as he goes undercover to infiltrate a group of extreme sports athletes suspected of committing daring heists. The movie features impressive action scenes and beautiful cinematography, but some may find the storyline to be lacking in depth and character development. Overall, the film is a decent watch for those who enjoy action-packed movies, but it may not live up to the legacy of the original 1991 movie.

An Action-Packed Thrill Ride with Beautiful Cinematography, but Lacking in Storyline Depth, but a must watch one time with good audio device.

Runway 34 (2022)
10/10
A gripping tale with a twist
29 September 2022
If you like thriller and suspense movies this is a perfect watch. It's a gripping tale with a twist & an impeccable aviation thriller with extraordinary script and direction by Ajay Devgan. He did justice with his role too. Amitabh Bachchan was a delight to watch as expected. Cinematography was excellent with no cheap effects. Dialogue delivery was worth appreciating. Soundtracks were really awesome and it's the reason to focus on the scenes. Really loved every frame of the movie. Songs were very decent and according to situation without any spice and nudity. I ended up downloading a Flight Stimulator Game. Highly recommended.

Definitely, worth watching
21 July 2022
A good disaster movie that hits all the right beats throughout its narrative arc. It's light and highly entertaining yet so deep and heavy. In a beautiful funny satirical way, it portrays a serious issue and delivers beautiful messages on Science, Politics, Governments, Media and the People. It makes a surprisingly deep impact. Do yourself a favour and watch this.

20 July 2022
This is one of the most satisfactory movies in Pakistan Cinema after a long time which actually is a movie instead of a melodrama. The storyline was unique with promising comedy, action & fun. Fahad and Mahira look stunning together. I wasn't expecting this from Nabeel Qureshi but he truly nailed it. Songs were good and according to the situation, unlike past. Pakistani cinema is on a good track.

There were some plots and action scenes that were inspired by Bollywood & Hollywood but I ignore it with the fact that at least we're breaking our own shells.

Perfectly Balanced Movie
15 July 2022
Perfectly balanced movie with humor, action, romance and adventure. It's hard to understand the multiverse but Dadho mazo ayo. Peter Parker as a character has been on the big screen for two decades and watching Tobey Maguire, childhood favourite spiderman, is such a treat. Tom is such a jolly actor. Sit and enjoy this masterpiece.

Worth Watching
22 January 2022
The whole world is blind. Brilliant concept to give a new perspective. If human beings were blind for two centuries they surely adopt the behaviour and mannerism of the world as a blind society. I just love the show. The fight scenes were so amazing that you always had a smile on your face. Jason Momoa & Dave Bautista have been incredible in their role, watching JM moving around as a blind person is no more than a treat. The character of Tamacti Jun is a bonus to this season. You can see so much growth and character development happening in this show. I've so much to say but I'm waiting for season 3. This show deserves more recognition than it is getting! Surely worth watching.

When it comes to entertainment, Sultan packs a solid punch. There is a perfect mixture of emotions, humor and action in the movie. There's a strong message about never giving up and it is heartwarming to watch. As expected from Salman Khan, he just got attention through out the movie. Anushka is the lady Sultan & I loved the part of Randeep. Songs are just perfect, I'm in love with them. Thank you Team Sultan for pure entertainment package.

Well filmed courtroom drama
24 October 2021
The story is about how Google stole the idea of Google Earth from another company and they never give credits or share. We also learnt how Google stole the ideas and patents of many and the other company simply can't challenge them because they weren't able to meet the expenses of the lawsuit. Everyone has to watch for the entrepreneurship & infringement related knowledge and procedure. I can say it is well filmed courtroom dramas with amazing performances and brilliant technical details but it is the story and execution that everyone should witness. Thank you Netflix for bringing it on board, even there efforts were not recognized but we know they deserved the credit.

10/10 for the nature of the story & purpose.

The luckiest unlucky!
27 September 2021
The luckiest unlucky? The question, what does success mean to you? Just try to ask yourself after watching it. What a brilliant, dark, fun & fast paced show to demonstrate metaphor of capitalism. I would love to take this ride again. Excellent showcase of human mind and emotions. The acting was pretty good and the story & plot was crazy. Its the battle of strong people against the weak people covering all aspects such as morality, honesty, sacrifice, smartness, cunningness and so on. Ending was somewhat predictable bht definitely a good show. I do recommend for you to watch it.

Watching the show brings you the joy of being alive
2 September 2021
If you're looking for a drama with a different storyline and a different atmosphere it would be a perfect choice. There is always a beautiful smile on my face each time I watch an episode. It's an entertaining combination of fluff, romance, drama, and political/police procedural. It shows the humanity in all echelons of society, from poor to rich, from communist to capitalists, from military to playboy. The chemistry is incredible, the emotions are real, and the casting is perfect. Watching the show brings you the joy of being alive.

A decent watch
4 August 2021
The best part of the film is the male and female have equal roles. The women is portrayed to be a bit more powerful, a girl with ambition and actor doesn't let her lose her dreams. Top notch performance by the leads. A Mans strength is defined by the smile on his women's face.

Appreciate, over and over again
1 August 2021
We in our lives always think we have it bad, credit card bills and lack of money, but then seeing this movie made me think really hard at my situation in life and in general my friends and family. It just makes you think that there's people in a lot worse than what you are. Being grateful for what you have is just the beginning. Beleiving in yourself, and going out there and not accepting defeat in the pursuit of happiness is the real story. Will Smith acted brilliantly as the single father trying to keep what he had left of himself and his son together. You get a real sense of the pain and the determination, and you somehow really want him to succeed in some ways even more than him. This is definitely one film that left a huge impact on my mind. A thoroughly enjoyable movie. A must see for everyone who's down in the dumps.
