Route 10

Before I write about how bad this movie is.. this is not a Saudi film.. I don't know why they keep saying that... Who made this garbage is a Lebanese film director, the story line doesn't fit the culture of Saudi Arabia.. also he was the writer.. you can imagine how bad it will be !

And, how you can made a movie like this in 2022? It was awful.. the cast is terrible.. the director made the film like a commercial ad for BMW.. I can't stop writing about how bad this movie Is.. I wish I could give it "0" because everything was bad.

In the end.. I want to say something to Baraa Alem, You are not good at acting... You should stop... (please.)

From the beginning of the movie i stared realizing that UAE (the maker of this movie) trying to giving bad image of Saudi Arabia. I am a foreigner and lived 30 years in Riyadh and have travelled route 10 two times and this is not at all the situation which they have shown in the movie, as if it is law less country and anyone can do on the highway and no law or police. Rather UAE is famous for such things though its a tiny country by my own family members were haunted by a a horrible UAE citizen on the highway. Totally disappointing and a propaganda movie against Saudi Arabia made by UAE and this is not the first time UAE has done this. UAE is famous for false propaganda against other Muslim brother countries and showing to the world that they are the best where worst of all crimes are happening 24/7 but all are covered under immoralities.

This film doesn't have much going for it other than the novelty of it being set in Saudi Arabia and having popular Saudi actors in it. The car chases and action sequences aren't too terrible, but the real missing factor to this movie is the plot.

The actors really had to stretch themselves given the poor writing. Fatima Al-Banawi is an incredible actress, but some of her lines felt forced and I kind of have to blame the director and writer for that. The same goes for Baraa.

His performance was surface level at best, although I'm sure he gave it his all. Overall the structure of the plot was lackluster, and the character's didn't have any depth.

Plus the ending was super confusing and felt out of pocket to Khaleeji culture.

Despite all of these flaws, I'm just glad that we're seeing more films set in Saudi Arabia with Saudi actors in them. If I were Netflix, I would focus on empowering Saudi directors and actors as opposed to bringing in directors from other countries.

While we all share common storylines as Arabs, the Saudi scene is much different and a Saudi director would definitely pick up on nuances that Khaleeji viewers would appreciate.

Overall, good effort from everyone involved and I hope to see an improvement in Saudi film-making in general, specifically within the thriller and action genres.

The acting 👎🏼 the tough girl wanna be then cry then tough girl then blaming each other, not one scene/line made sense! And the ending wtf?! Why ?! And the brother tough and crybaby rich boy cant tell...is this an ad for nissan patrol? Toyoya land cruiser i dont know what type suv that is.

Or is it ad for bmw 730...😐 , im surprised its a 2022 movie with all that bad script and story telling, the writer/director did the worse job possible here, dont know abt the actress fatima but is it her or she needs some acting lessons?! This movie is a waste of time, i say watch it and you will know what i mean.

Thoroughly enjoyed the movie, though it had some glitches here and there. The actors were fantastic! More movies from this region should be made. What a landscape! And we should get to see more about the reality of this region and people. That Muslims are also kind and vulnerable people. That they too get scared and get hurt. People have emotions and have a social structure like anyone else. Whenever we see Muslims in films, they are either terrorists, or terrorists. We should have more films like they are also normal people like us. Thank you for this movie. Waiting to see more from this region.
