imran-shafi What a third class movie with the worst acting, dialogues and scene setting. Initially i thought as I am looking at 70s time chines movie with worst dialogue and worst actors. It seems as the director and producer caught the actors from street and they decided to make this movie in 10 minutes. Probably the movie will top the charts if its given the chance to appear for the year's baddest movie. There is not laughter rather I thought many a times to give it full of tears. What has happened to the Indian movie making as it seems that the law graduates of Indian universities are making movies with no sense rather nonsense. I shut the movie in first 5 minutes and still full of sadness on wasting those precious moments of my life. Moreover why good actors like Joshi don't look at the script before signing such movies as I had a big respect for him but now I m going to extra cautious in deciding to see his movies.

shaswat-adhikari SPOILER REVIEWThis movie is just awesome with a great message. The movie is very funny from the beginning till the end. It's a feel good movie and the best movie of the year for me. The story is about friendly Indian and Pakistani soldiers but the situations force them to fight for their country. Through a reporter both the countries become friendly at last. The dialogues are very funny. Songs are not too special. But the movie is very funny and nice with a great message. Acting is also very nice. This is a very unique movie. I highly recommend this movie. My ratings- 10 out of 10.

bobbysing It is not easy to think about making a 'War Comedy', particularly in our part of the world and that too between India and Pakistan, who are still fighting with the haunting memories of their painful partition. So from that angle, director Faraz Haider rightly deserves the praises regarding the novel choice of this risky theme, which has never been tried before in such a focused way in Hindi Cinema. But sadly on the other hand, we don't find the same matured outlook in his execution which more or less remains an interesting yet unconvincing comic take on an important subject of War.It seems the writer and his director, have taken their basic idea from one of the most famous War Comedies of the West directed by Stanley Kubrick titled DR. STRANGELOVE OR: HOW I LEARNED TO STOP WORRYING AND LOVE THE BOMB(1964). And one gets this idea, the moment he sees Dalip Tahil playing various characters of an Indian, Pakistani, American and Chinese official in the film, just like Peter Sellers played 3 different persons in the Oscar nominated classic released in 1964.Beginning on an interesting and engaging note, WCNY offers some good entertaining sequences at regular intervals, which actually lose their individual grip or charm due to the other amateurish and unconvincing sequences coming one after another. The basic purpose or motive of the fresh concept remains unclear to the viewer even after 40 minutes into the film and the songs further put some relevant questions on the vision of its makers quite strongly. Moreover absurd insertions like 'Antakshri' at the border and very irresponsible kind of reporting by the lead character of Soha Ali Khan strictly ruin the initial excitement of watching the First War Comedy of Hindi Cinema and the film truly disappoints towards the end. Though post intermission, the entertainment factor returns with some fine comic sequences happening in the war front itself enacted by few talented actors. But the tacky handling of the subject soon makes a comeback, turning the film into an amateurish mediocre product failing to make any kind of favorable impression on the viewers despite the novel subject.Adding songs in a 'War Comedy' itself is a clear indication of the confused vision of its makers and the tracks further prove the same making no contribution at all in the overall proceedings. Cinematography tries its best to keep the viewer engaged but the weak writing and too many night sequences in its second hour don't let it happen convincingly. The same can be said about both Sharman Joshi and Javed Jaafri who act well but don't get the much required support of the writers. Soha Ali Khan is just OK as the journalist but Sanjay Mishra and Manoj Pahwa are superb in their comic portrayal. Dalip Tahil in his different get ups is not able to put up any exceptional show whereas Mukul Dev acts fine in his funny side track of a silly intruder.To give you a precise idea, no doubt WAR CHHOD NA YAAR says all the right things about the futility of war in the present times, revealing the secret mean games played by those powerful countries working behind the curtains. But it's the way of depicting the idea which doesn't work here in totality and the film just remains a weak attempt made with some noble intentions.However, coming to the major point which doesn't allow me to give any better ratings to the film bringing forward a crucial issue, WAR CHHOD NA YAAR in reality is a flawed War Comedy because it wrongly tackles the subject in a partial manner. Putting it differently, if you are making a War Comedy then you have to make fun of both the countries equally irrespective of your own origin or country. Whereas here, the makes are more interested in making fun of the opponent country Pakistan only in all their major comedy sequences and India is shown in a much respected manner comparatively, following a purely imbalanced pattern, which is not how it should be done.Hence due to this biased and unacceptable partial vision of conceiving a War Comedy(making fun of only the opponent), the film loses another star from its ratings and you can easily skip it this weekend to catch up later on a TV channel in the coming months.

akshay kunder The movie starts with both leaders of the respective army playing cards at the border in late night and this is unknown to rest all the soldiers of both the sides.The movie then unfolds to the stories happened 18 hours back and comes to the present till interval and then heads for the second half.Here, we are shown how the media and political groups are hungry for attention and also getting awakened at the time when it was needed the most.War chodd na yaar shows something that is actually known but always been held as a covert stuff just because of the agenda of the people at the top.WCNY mostly focuses on the sentiments of the people from both the sides, the soldiers as well as the common people. Watch out for the scenes where an Indian girl chats with a Pakistani guy on FB about the things happening at the border.The movie will be remembered for the comic timing and a common subject dealt with a different view. Direction by Faraz Haider is promising.Performances are top notch from all the actors. Sharman,Javed Jaffrey , Soha Ali Khan and Mukul Dev are brilliant. Special mention for Mr.Dalip Tahil who plays four roles at the same time and does it with zeal. Sanjay Mishra and Manoj Pahwa also don't look underused.Songs are good but the song at the start showing soha falling for sharman and only capturing him in her camera could have been avoided.In all its a refreshing change from the path that is always taken by Bollywood comedy movies. There is no room for boredom here.For the team of WCNY, i would dedicate this quote of Ralph Waldo Emerson ,"Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. "Tis movie has achieved it.
