Ibrahim Labyad

This movie deserves an Oscar.

With a powerhouse cast including Mahmoud Abdel Aziz, Ahmed El Sakka, and Amr Waked, this film delivers a raw and unforgettable experience. Every performance is intense and deeply emotional, especially Mahmoud Abdel Aziz, who gave one of the greatest villain portrayals in Arab cinema history. The cinematography, the direction by Marwan Hamed, and the brutal realism of the story make this film stand out.

This movie is iconic. 👏 It's full of legendary Egyptian stars and moments that stay with you long after it ends.

Warning: +16 only - contains strong violence, graphic action, and blood.

If you're into gritty, powerful storytelling with emotional weight and top-tier acting, I promise you'll have an amazing experience. Don't miss it.

I have always heard lots of criticism about this movie to the point I was advised to save my money when it was released as it is not worth it and so I did! Here I'm after all these years watching this great movie for the first time and learning a very good lesson 'Never trust what people say.' This movie is great and one of a kind in the history of Egyptian Cinema.

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.

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

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.
