Mallaki Iskandariya

Just watched the movie today and I have to say that I haven't seen such a good Eygptian movie in a very very long time. The rise of cheap comedy movies in recent years made me almost lose hope that we will ever watch something decent and well done. However, after watching Malkaky Iskendereya tonight, I was so impressed by the excellent direction of Sandra Nashaat and the amazing work by young actors and actresses who have been constantly contained in silly roles that hardly brought out whatever talent they possessed. Nour and Ghada Adel were exceptionally good..I honestly never saw Ghada as a good actress but once she was given a proper role to play, she shined! The photography was so adequate to the movie's plot and setting. Overall, this is a must see movie and a classic! Hoping to see more of these well directed/written/acted movies in the cinemas in the recent future.

This is my first film by director Sandra Nashaat a rising female Egyptian director. My kids dragged me to see the movie; and surprise, surprise. I was really impressed by the cinematography, the acting, the directing and the plot twist. The title of the movie "Mallaki Iskandariya" means an Alexandria (Egypt) license plate. It is the story of a young attorney that is spellbound by the young widow of a rich man; accused by his children of murdering him. The head of his law firm refuses the case and he is forced to resign to try and prove her innocence. Very few Egyptian female directors established themselves on the movie seen e.g. Asmaa El-Bakry & Inas Al Degheidy; and Sandra Nashaat has surely put her name amongst them.

This movie is absolutely amazing, one of the best ones ever, in fact it is the best one ever!! Ahmed Ezz made a fantastic role in this movie, he proved that he is really a good actor & not just a pretty face!! And also Khaled Saleh who made the role of his life & also Mohamed Rageb made a very very good role.

Also Nour & Ghada Adel made the role of their lives, Riham Abdel Gafoor didn't have a real impact on this movie but it was nice to see her anyway.

And Sandra the director did a great job in this one & made it one of the best Egyptian movies ever.

All I can say is; This movie is a piece of ART!!

I think that this film is the best so far! Ahmed Ezz is too cute and he is the thing that made this film to shine! Ghada my favorite actress and Nour, in this film have acted too well and this what makes this movie very nice, and it is the best detective movie in my opinion. When i first saw this movie, i was concentrating to make sure that i understand, and i was also focusing on Ahmed Ezz's handsome looks! The film of Private Alexandria, like i have to say again, is the best movie to exist........(detective stories) So i wish that producers come up with movies like that in Egypt because this movie was very good, thats why i gave Ito a rating 10!!!!!!!!!!!

I always heard about it and never thought it would be like this . The beginning of the movie was perfect by all standards . The story was more than perfect . All the actors nailed it . One of the best Plot twists ever in cinema history. Great soundtrack , great scenes with perfect filming .

Acting 10/10 I can't mention all the names because they all glowed up in that movie Plot 10/10 great plot with a mind blowing plot twist Filming 11/10 made us feel evey part of the crime Soundtrack 9/10 fits in the scenes very well Ending 9/10 I don't usually like hour and half movies as they are little short and that what made the ending sounds small But it was great anyway.
