Saw Kabul Express on saturday with Suahil, didnt get the time to write its review, been busy watching Prison Break etc etc. We reached the Hall late as usual, thnx to Suhail the great.
The movie is about two Journalists, Jai (Arshad Warsi) and Suhail (John Abrahm) from India who are new to reporting world and have been told to cover a war story in war torn Afghanistan. They have to interview some Talibans (talibs), but everytime they try, all their efforts fail!! They want to cover the story well, to make an impact.
But a talib, get into their car and force them to go towards Pakistan Border. On the way, an American Journalists also join them. Its a story about ther journey, the problems they face.
It also shows how Pakistan left its soldiers in Afghanistan who were sent their to fuel the war but after 9/11, Pak joined hands with US and abandoned its own soldiers and were killed if they tried to escape either by US soldiers or by Pakistan soldiers themselves.
The movie has awesome, brilliant acting performances by all of the actors. The background score is also excellent. There are no songs as such in the movie but in the album, i like Kabul Fiza.
The movie is definitely a good watch and will not be liked who like those stupid romantic movies of Karan Johar… or blah blah.
My rating: 4/5
The name of John in the movie is Suhail, so my frnd Suhail, made me aware of the fact wenevr it was mentioned! Next in the line is Happy Feet, but i dont think that i will be able to watch it.
