Acensbart Excellent but underrated film

ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

indianocean2011 I watched this movie on a very late time, three years after being released in fact. Ibrahim, the ideal hero, was living with his mother and saw his father murdering without any ability to prevent the killers. However, his mother has died leaving him alone within a bush of slums, nearby Cairo. The big guy, Mahmoud Abdel-Aziz who dressed in black, loves the girl that fallen in love with Ibrahim (I remembered Maria Magdalena at the moment). The story line is simple and ended with killing Ibrahim after being betrayed by his closest friend who took a few money in exchange of trapping Ibrahim at a coffee shop. Many friends said that I'm exaggeratedly interpreted the story, but I told them that the producing company is Good News, the Aramaic name of the New Testament!While I loved the cinematography, music, editing of that movie, I see Marawan Hamed, the director, a just clever director, not a creative one.

Ruslan Abuzant Hello,While the movie is full of bloody scenes and extreme violence; It still shows some very true aspects of life in underground Cairo. Dealing narcotics, murder crimes and more of what a tourist would never see in a trip to Cairo. Love, on the other side is very obvious in the movie between Houriya and Ebraheem; The characters played their roles in a very professional way making the viewers live each second of the movie as if it was going in real time. It is a great movie if you want to know what happens in Cairo "below those bridges" when you travel from above..

mooraelageeb Everybody saw this movie kept telling me that it's so bad movie.But when i saw it i really knew that they were idiots.it's a great movie and one of the best Egyptian movies ever made.the script is very good the acting is awesome and though the main character "AHMED EL .." wasn't as great as the others "MAHMOUD" played a great role one of the best in his life and also "Amer waked" .this film worth watching not only one times.watch it and it gonna be one of your favorites.THE SCENES WERE VERY VIOLENT AND HAVE A A LOT OF BLOOD BUT THAT DIDN'T AFFECT THE VIEWING.THE DIALOGUE LINES WERE PERFECT AND FIT THE CHARACTERS AND THE OVERALL CLIMATE OF THE MOVIE.MARWIN HAMMED IS A GREAT REALLY GREAT DIRECTOR

tifa_ronaldo I was totally shocked when i watched the movie, i was like, OH MY GOD, is that an Egyptian movie ?! People who went to watch it before i did, kept telling me that it sucks, but actually it made me wanna see it more, and i did, and i loved it. The audience is criticizing this movie so bad saying that it hasn't a good story, u know what they're not totally mistaken in my opinion. i mean the story is not bad at all, and it's not that great, but u don't have to come up with a great story to have a great movie. Millions of other factors play a big role in judging a movie. For me the acting was superb, Mahmoud Abdel Aziz is back to his best, though i didn't like his overdid religious jokes in the movie, Ahmed Elsakka was Brilliant as he is LATELY, Hend Sabry once more proves that she's the best Arabian actress nowadays, and last but not least Amr Waked who was the biggest surprise as he did put in an incredible performance and the most reliable one. The direction by Marawan Hamed was exactly what he needed to do after his Masterpiece, YACOUBIAN BUILDING, he truly made us live the movie entirely, he did an amazing job shooting the fights, the best in the Egyptian history. IT IS BLOODY LIKE HELL, IF U R NOT INTO THESE KINDA MOVIES U MAY NOT LIKE IT, BUT I REALLY THINK IT IS WORTH WATCHING.
