Reviews

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Sammy-Jo Cervantes There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
Abegail Noëlle While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
indianocean2011 Khaled Youssef, the director that worked with Chahine since early 1990s, has do nothing but reproducing the famous work of Chaine which was released in early 1990s. Originally a biblical story, Khaled Youssef adopts the traditional narrative, acts, and symbols that Chahine used in his movie. Frankly I can't continue watching Khaled Youssef movies as my mind used to recall Chahine's movies during the watching. He always tries to be Chahine II, but unfortunately Chaine has gone without giving the keys of his talent to Khaled! Nowadays, Mr. Khaled said that his movie was a prophecy of Egyptian Revolution, I wonder how he said the comment, the end of his movie refers to the collapse of the Egyptian Society, not to his great revolution.
