Voy! Voy! Voy!

This movie is so well done! A must see if you know anything about Egypt and the region, but it has so much more to offer even if you don't.

First of all the story (based on true and remarkable events) is one that is uniquely Egyptian and speaks to so much of our own personal struggles and insecurities and dreams for a better life. I don't think anyone on this planet understands the real struggles Egyptians go through except Egyptians. But even within Egypt, people don't understand each other's struggles or how these struggles can change what you are made of or what you are willing to do to make thing better for you or your family and friends.

You will know from the trailer that the story is about a man who pretends to be blind to join a soccer team for the blind that will travel outside of Egypt which is his dream. It introduces the hero of the story as a bad bad man right off the bat. But you know a movie is good, when everything within the main bad bad character, you can find inside yourself, and you begin to root for the bad bad man to make it to his goal.

I was so deeply moved by the main character's struggle, his coping strategies , and of course our trademark Egyptian humor skill set, that is such a necessary tool. It carries everyone in this movie and this country past the pain and uphill climb that daily life presents to each of us at varying degrees . As a people, we Egyptians have a stubborn strain of patience, resilience and tenacity that comes across so strongly in the way this story is told.

It grabs you from the very beginning, and it's hard to guess the plot twists which keeps it exciting. To top it off the acting is so on point that you are invested in everyone's dilemma till the very end.

Filming, lighting, music and editing are top notch, and I applaud the actors at how they totally had me sold on every motivation they had to take the actions they had to take in the movie.

But most importantly this movie (especially if you are a thinker) will leave you feeling happy and guilty and maybe even wanting to do better in your own struggle at the very end. It's so damn funny too! Viewers in the cinema broke into applause in the end and I clapped spontaneously because that is what you feel you must do. I'm taking the kids for sure .. and I highly advise that you take your gang and go.

Bravo ! I hope this movie reaches as many human eyes as possible. I want to google the entire story in depth and find out where these people are now.

Before entering Voy! Voy! Voy!, I was worried about taking the true story (which the movie is based on it) to a cringe way filled up with moral messages mixed with silly jokes.

THE FILM WAS NOTHING LIKE THAT!

I had one of the most amazing experiences watching Egyptian film.

A risky journey full of pure funny moments and hilarious situations.

It's a film meant to be a classic in the future. Perfect use of hard cuts and drawing characters with multiple dimensions. And the smart plot twists are a bonus!

Do you love comedies? Thrillers? True stories? Adventures?

You will LOVE "Voy! Voy! Voy!".

Welcome back Egyptian cinema. It's finally a great egyptian movie since a while!

It's very cool , light comedy and miserable.

The film took us through a mixed feelings. Sometimes it gives us laughter then gives us emotions that made me cry in a scence.

The cast is a perfect choice. I don't think there is someone overracting or not suitable for the role.

All of them is stunning , Taha desoky especially is shining in this role.

Each role helps the another and this is how the movie should be.

Also , It's a very great start from director Omar Hilal. Makes us wait for his next works.

I loved it so much and it's highly recommended.

The movie is suitable for all ages it also opened my eyes and made me learn about a new sport that no one knew about and finally after a while a good and well made dark comedian movie it is going to be a classic a good submission for Egypt for the oscars and what an introduction for a new director with his first movie the acting was sensed every character played their role perfectly no one overreacted did not expect to see this when i bought the movie ticket at all. This is the type of movies i would rewatch a lot later by time . Highly recommended for anyone it is actually a good international film the way i can recommend it to anyone who is not egyptian and he would get it and like it. Surprisingly good movie.

I went to the movies with the whole family and not knowing what to expect. We all came out saying the exact same thing "Great movie" !!! We loved the entire movie, production and characters played. The actors made you feel every scene for the characters they were playing. The cast was great. The production was also perfect. We really enjoyed the entire movie and the story. We related to the characters and could feel what they were trying to portray. There were scenes that were emotional and heartfelt, I felt the emotions from each character. I highly recommend to go see it and enjoy. Must see !!
