    Waste of time

    Waste of Time Thr story base is unique but it got completely wasted as the movie does not move an inch since the beginning. The overexaggerated smoking scenes by lead actors and unwanted roll of RJ Devaki wastes the length of the movie further. The CBI chief seems to need some medical help as he always feels demotivated from the first scene.

    Poor direction Poor acting Poor casting Poor dialogues Poor screenplay The only good thing is a thought of a such a plot which is unique. Let's see where the movie goes in the 2nd part.

    It is OK if you miss to see the first part. Just see 15-20 minutes of the 1st part and you will understand the movie. But it is suggested to watch 2nd part after getting to know the reviews.

    The other movie "Vash" is an excellent gem on the other hand and "Hu Iqbal" stands nowhere.

    A film with great story but poor direction

    The cinematography, all the camera angles and the lightings in many of the scene is awful. The pacing of the film is real pain for the viewers as well. The story had a great potential but it seemed apparent that they didn't know how to end the movie, The ending seemed very abrupt and tease of sequel used as a tool to buy some time to write the story forward, which should be considered shameful from the writer and director of the movie. The story, background music and acting from few individuals made the movie worth. I would not suggest people to watch it in theatre and wait for it to showup on OTT. It felt as if making suspense movie is not a cup of tea for the director no matter how much some people praise him for it.

    Hun Iqbal:- A Film Heavy On Content And The Thrill Flavour

    We've often heard about "Change Is Constant." With changing times, the manner of making movies and the kind of content to be shown in it is changing too.

    I haven't seen a plethora of Gujarati movies to be able to tell about its overall scenario but certainly, the industry is evolving big time of late.

    Yesterday, I watched Hun Iqbal on the big screen. It was an absolute delight to watch the flick on the whole. The "Concept" and the "Plot" are the clear winners in this movie. It is an out an out thriller which is easily a Director's movie.

    The level of content and the art of attracting viewers' attention throughout has been successfully achieved here. From the beginning itself, the drama unfolds in such a manner that you're inclined towards the screen and wanna anticipate about "What Next!"

    Hun Iqbal is a masterpiece in content and wins on concept alone, not to forget the performances and dialogues that add to its beauty. The only negative I found was the editing. Given the manner in which it ended, editing could surely have been a tad bit more crisp, especially in the second half.

    The ending was unusual too. You don't quite end a movie without ending it. That's another brave call by the team. It could have backfired but I guess it was worth the risk. It only adds to the differential flavour of the movie.

    The mystery remains intact and there's so much more to be seen too. Given the positive word of mouth, I'm sure many people will watch the movie and eagerly wait for what's to unfold in the next part.

    The direction is gripping and given the quality of content and story writing, it only enhances the reputation of the movie. Music and background is quite good too. In fact, there's a Hindi song that's much better than what all Bollywood comes up with these days. Kirdaar sung by Tshering Bhutia is outstanding. Her voice is lovely and she wins us over with the softness and peaceful vocals. Lanka Poonch Ni Pachad and Man Kabootar are brilliant too. Well done Darshan Shah, Thaakur and team.

    Coming to the performances, everyone have played their part quite well. Devaki hands down steals the show for me. Be it her looks, her expressions, her dialogue delivery, the manner in which she reacts, everything was perfect. Sonali Ma'am is brilliant too. Nirav Vaidya plays his part quite well and stays put during the tough emotional moments. Ravi Ranjan is good too.

    Now, Mitra Gadhvi! Dost, for me, hands down, this is the best movie that you've been a part of. Yes, this goes beyond Bas Ek Chance easily. Again, it was an absolute pleasure to watch you on the big screen and in such an impactful role again. Onwards and upwards, always. Waiting to see how you unravel in Part 2. Hai na, Yes!

    All in all, Hun Iqbal is in a territory of its own. It is gripping, eventful and keeps us all glued to the screen throughout. The heist has been pulled off, what next now is to be seen. Kudos to Pallav Parikh for coming up with this concept. May you keep scaling new heights.

    I would rate it 4/5. It is a must watch movie for sure. Cheers Team Hun Iqbal.

    The Unique story.

    The Unique story you never seen in any Hollywood or Bollywood, Must watch Hun Iqbal movie,. Story is too good But Directer was trying to long story and scenes. For gujarati industry it's too good to for new contant, this movie actor need more acting level and expression with dialogues,. The writer has used his brain well but some scenes are too long which will make you feel bored. ...Some overacting has been shown too much which can be known only by seeing For story 5/5 For acting 3.5/5 For climex 5/5 For movie directory of movie 4/5 Overall good movie je loko ne kantado ocho aave che a loko maate must.

    We want part-2 ...i don't care ke movie a collection vadhare karyu che ke nai loko ne gamyu che ke nai pan mane to bau gamyu.

    Why is the name of the movie Iqbal?

    I think the movie was an attempt to copy hollywood / bollywood style with some vague story telling in the name of getting something fresh and unique on the table. Not sure why would the writer and director attempt the second part when first was so random.

    Not all things that are unique or hatke are worth it. I guess when a baby tries something new it exclaims at the smallest of its achievements and slightest of appreciations make baby happy. Direction was poor, plot was not anything exciting and the reason to make the movie, unknown. A set of people were free and had the money to spend. The only saver was a 15 seconds of acting that the lady does at the end of the movie after which she is killed by the antagonist.
