Meskina

Dumb jokes, a poor script and very, very bad acting. This movie is supposed to be funny, but I think that only the script writers had a good time laughing about their own 'jokes'. Humor has got a lot to do with timing. This is completely off. It reminds me of the television shows on the Dutch tele in the '80's with one dimensional plots. Those shows were better.

"Meskina", a loser or pathetic, according to the local translation, "staying for auntie" in good Portuguese, a funny and sad film, is unfortunately what happens to many women who get married, leave their jobs, friends, home and all their possessions to follow their husband, and the protagonist almost makes the mistake twice... What an ending, Leyla's words are brave and necessary, good to know that this cry is coming from Moroccan culture, a society so patriarchal and sexist, just like most in the world... I am a Meskina, a Meskina by choice, successful and happy, I super loved the ending, girls and women need this film for life... Beautiful...

A thirty-something aspiring children's author, labeled "meskina" (pity case) by her Moroccan-Dutch community for still being career-less and single, sets out to once and for all find professional success and true love.

I know that Dutch movies are not the greatest, but I think this movie is very important for Dutch people to watch. Both boys and girls. I could definitely relate to the story and I found it such a relief to have a story like this presented. Times have finally changed and I am happy that my daughter is growing up in a world where there are options!

Not bad.... A good movie funny / romantic story I recommend to you.

The first original Moroccan movie on Netflix.

We need more original Moroccan series and movies on the platform!!!!

My inner masochist was working overtime when I decided to watch this movie to the end. No amount of colorful clothes or characters could save this story and make it understandable.

I think the writers had a basis for the story but everyone was on non-speaking terms with each other and decided to write their parts on their own. The movie probably also went through an editing hell because it looks like its missing half of the scenes. And the acting..oh the acting!

Its ridiculously stupid, dramatic and overdone that it must be one of the dumbest "netflix influencer pretty faces empty brains" movies I've ever watched in my life. These movies are all the same, the only difference is the language.
