A great film, which should set an example.
The Pakistani film revival is now well and truly in full swing. It's safe to say after watching this. A mature story-line, vastly different from the commercial market in Pakistan, this sets the bar with superb acting, script and story telling.
The tying-in and well thought out cultural references were pulled off superbly. The film did drag a little especially towards the end, as there were a number of times scenes felt like the climax of the movie, but were dragged out longer than anticipated.
This is a wonderful example; to show contemporary film making in Pakistan. However, it is a shame that this probably won't appeal to mass market and therefore won't yield as much money at the box office.
I loved it, and would watch it again, it just worked so well on screen.
