Saa'a wi Nos

From the very beginning, I had high expectations that I would be watching an exceptional and captivating movie. However, I was initially apprehensive about the director, Wael Ihsan, who is primarily known for his comedies rather than dramas. Nevertheless, the superb screenplay by Ahmed Abdullah, the unique vision of Wael Ehsan, the expert camera work of Sameh Selim, and the exceptional performances of the entire cast are the reasons why this film has been a huge success.

Each artist gave their best performance, with some outshining others, such as Karim Mahmoud, Muhammad Imam, and Ahmed Azmy, who delivered a fairly good performance. Despite having only eight scenes per character, the cast gave their best and left a lasting impression.

Additionally, there was a "star" who was not visible but was heard in every scene. Ahmed Abdullah's writing skills and his exceptional ability to convey the events of a single day, combined with the success of his previous films, "Cabaret" and "Al-Farah," motivated Ahmed Al-Sobky to risk everything he had to ensure that the film was produced in such an outstanding manner. Directed by Wael Ehsan, the film's final scene showcased his creativity and vision, allowing the audience to empathize with the characters. Sameh Selim's camera work made me feel like a passenger on the train.

In conclusion, this is an excellent and respectable movie that can be watched without any hesitation or embarrassment. This film is the best to have been presented since the revolution, competing only in terms of location but exceeding expectations in every other aspect. I have high hopes for this movie's success and expect it to win many awards.

It started out very comical for such a funereal film, it even seemed debauchous, however it was gaining seriousness, in the 12 stories developed, with differentiated and representative nuclei of poor, hard-working and hungry Egypt... The film diverges from the facts, the interest was not reported them, but adding to the suffering of the Egyptian people and their social ills, 383 passengers died in a fire that started in the last cars, probably in the preparation of food, I was eager to try Falafel...

It is very sad but this is the reality! Great job 👍🏻
