Ya Rab Movie Review

Ya Rab is the second film this week trying to achieve an implausible balance between a glorified sermon and an outlandish entertainer.

...is a totally avoidable fare. I could not help pleading, Ya Rab, reham! [Oh God, mercy!] Random Youtube videos make better sense than this.

To sum it up in one word – Bad! Ya Rab is a movie based on Islam and terrorism. Despite having a very strong, interesting and intense concept, it failed miserably on the big screen.

It may have started out as a noble intention, but the film's execution is outdated and comes across as cliched. The linear storyline and overtly simplistic narrative may appeal to those who prefer the formulaic cinema of the 80s.

YA RAB is an interesting movie with an intelligent, intense and important message but poor presentation. Had the story-telling been on the lines of A WEDNESDAY or AAMIR, this film, I dare say, would have been an absolute stunner.

The Dialogues are way too dramatic instead of hard hitting. The linear storyline and overtly simplistic narrative may appeal to those who prefer formulaic cinemas of 80s.
