Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic

Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

namashi_1 Faraz Haider's 'War Chod Na Yaar' is A Truly Funny & Well-Acted Film! A humorous war-satire, that hits the right notes, at most parts.'War Chod Na Yaar' Synopsis: Captain Rajveer Singh (Sharman Joshi) and Captain Quereshi (Jaaved Jafferi) are battalion captains of India and Pakistan - two countries forever embroiled in conflict and turmoil with each other. However, on the actual battle-field, Raj-Quereshi & their troops form an unlikely friendship & camaraderie, reared on a love for conversations on Hindi film songs & non-veg food. Midst them, arrives Ruth Dutta (Soha Ali Khan), an ambitious TV reporter, assigned to make a documentary on the lives of the soldiers of these two sides, as reported from on-ground. But when war is announced between these two countries, the easy friendship between the two sides is tested & conspiracy theories are hatched.'War Chod Na Yaar' takes a dig at those who have made India & Pakistan, enemies, who are primarily politicians. But, underneath a strong message on world-peace, this recent under-rated war-comedy, delivers some crackling moments. The sequences in the first-hour belong to the tongue-in-cheek class of humor, while the second-hour concentrates on slap-stick & over-the-top humor. Faraz Haider's Screenplay tackles a very serious, in a light-hearted manner. Although the final 15-minutes are serious, the rest of the film, concentrates on comedy, which works only as an advantage for the venture. However, the writing in the second-hour, isn't entirely solid. His Direction, on the other-hand, is controlled. Cinematography is appropriate. Editing is average.Performance-Wise: Jaaved Jafferi is a joy to watch. The versatile actor enacts the bumbling war-hero with mesmerizing ease. Sharman Joshi is natural the core. Soha Ali Khan does nicely as the leading-lady. Sanjay Mishra is terrific, as always. Dalip Tahil, seen in multiple roles, does an impeccable job. Mukul Dev is alright. Manoj Pahwa is adequate.On the whole, 'War Chod Na Yaar' is impressive work.

Ajit Tiwari Defense Minister of India (Dalip Tahil), wants a media attention and visits the India-Pakistan Border with a channel's reporter Ruth Dutta (Soha Ali Khan). She meets Indian Army Captain Raj (Sharman Joshi) who shares a friendly gesticulation with General M. Qureshi (Javed Jaffrey) belonging Pakistani army, , convoyed by their soldiers. Then there is an involvement of dirty politics and politicians from both the country who make them fight with each other and the sole reason is political gain.Faraz Haider did a commendable work here in his directorial debut with 'War Chhod Na Yaar'. The concept & script bring a fresh breeze amongst the mindless movies these days. What work here are the intention and some perfect satirical context. The narrative gives us an awareness of the atrocities of war and we can feel the compulsion of soldiers. It clearly indicates that nobody wants war but there are some catalysts that aggravate the reaction.We witness many elements which are real amusements such as "antakshari" among the soldiers from both sides, playing cards at the border surreptitiously, commander talking about girlfriends some trespassers are being looted every time they appear on the screen by same man.Most part of the film has been shot beautifully in Rajasthan. The murky desert looks fantastic with the use of torch lights, most of the scene have been shot at night which gives an eccentric feel.Sharman Joshi does a wonderful work here and looked really authentic. Javed Jaffery delivers a perfect performance with natural comic timing as always. Sanjay Mishra is always a treat to watch with his delightful portrayal and perfectly delivered punches in his peculiar style. Dalip Tahil steals the show playing multiple roles of Indian Defense Minister, Pakistani Minister, Chinese General and as an American Senator with perfect US accent.'War Chhod Na Yaar' manages to delivers what it desires. It works as a surprise and leaves strong impact that war is always pointless.

Venkatesh Iyer This movie with an absurd name is about a situation where a war is declared between two countries and the incidents that happen around it. Since its an Indian movie , the war needs to be against its obvious 'enemy' Pakistan. The movie is coined as the first war comedy. And is most definitely hilarious, but in parts.War Chod na yaar is the perfect example of an exceptional concept decently executed. And most importantly it not a biased movie where the Pakistani army gets bashed and the Indian army emerges victorious(Well to an extent the Indian army is shown much organized, but come on its an Indian movie). Another portrayal which truly impressed me is that the director / writer has ensured that none of the army soldiers are shown killed on/by either side. Supremely talented Javed Jaffery once again excels once again.and So does Sharmaan Joshi, Sanjay Mishra. But a special mention goes to Dilip Tahil who portrays the character of all the ministers, which I felt was the inside message of the movie(Politicians of every country are the same and exploit/manipulate the army/citizens) .And Soha Ali khan was just above par. The antakshari sequence between the Indian and the Pakistani army is extremely hilarious. And so is the sequence where the Pakistani minister has discussions to the Chinese general and requests to speak in Punjabi, And the Chinese general puts on the 'China made' translator and starts talking like Sidhu.The only but a major disappointment in the movie according to me was the climax. It was a complete letdown especially after having such a good plot. And I felt the movie should have ended sensibly. It gave a 'times up lets finish it' kinda finish. and also didn't find the need of any songs in the movie and the romance between the Hero and heroine was put in just because there needed to be song. But overall a pretty decent attempt to portray a serious concern in a light hearted way. A better crisply edited version of it would have been much entertaining.
