10 Days Before the Wedding

This is the first time I watch the street I walk through, the people I meet and the sky that stands high upon us on the big screen.

The first and only time I've been to the cinema was when I was a little kid, that time movie theaters were almost gasping to meet their final destiny. I still remember every siple detail of that night.. a person must remember his first time they say!

After that night I've never been to any movie theater as they were shut by the new regime and inforced, with a very strict understanding of Sharia laws, against people's will. Since then my longing never stoped and movies were never to be played in a once-upon-a-time socialist Marxists city!

Cheerfully, that didn't last forever as this movie broke the silence and changed the status quo.

This movie is well screened and directed, played with talent and passion, still, I find the story to be a mere cliche; repeated hundreds of times in art and literature, and this is perhaps why Amr Gamal need to hand some of the responsibilities he takes on his back to others. I believe that there are many Yemeni pieces of work that can be put into motion.

I highly recommend this movie as it is, up until now, one of its kind.

I like this movie above all others. there is so much to see and appreciate. Every viewing brings a new appreciation of the story-line, the plot and the characters. Faultlessly acted and produced. I love the interaction between the players; the subtle relationships; the period atmosphere (the recent catastrophic war in Yemen).This romantic love story sweeps across the screen with epic proportions of both the strength of the victorious soul of this ancient city rooted in the middle of a dormant volcano and the dreadful ruin of the wretched war .

It is a great feeling when I see the first Yemeni film reach this level and achieve all the achievements. I'm writing this review with an honor for all stuff.

It is a wonderful movie. Made in difficlut times in Aden. Yemen. . The screenplay is great.

Best side of the movie.thw world gets ro see the Adeni tradiontion.

It the first commercial film made in Yemen which was filmed completely in Aden.

A genius masterpiece documenting the Era with all tiny details in amazing way showing old houses, local food and all traditions in Aden.

The spectator would enjoy every single minute of the film and live the events with the actors for two hours laughing and crying at the same time.
