Turab el-Mas

The movie is not high rated like the indian movies cause of the fake ratings, its maybe also exceptional in the egyption movies every thing is well done in it the acting is great just the actors who can find a very simple mistakes the story is great the locations are great and the director did it well they made it perfect without showing any of sex and nudity some other directors would prefer to put alot of them in a movie like this and it really doesn't matter at all I have enjoyed every minute I thought it will be a long movie but after i get into it I recognized that i was wrong and its a pleasure to watch it till the end

I went to the cinema place really having a high expectations specially because the novel was just amazing ! .. But I left the cinema place speechless , Ahmed Mourad decided to turn the novel into a masterpiece by modifying it to fit in 2 hours and half movie ! it was just amazing really ! .. I really recommend everyone to check this movie out even if you didn't read the novel. You will get bombed anyway!.

Along with "The Blue Elephant" movie, this movie changes the way we look at Egyptian filmmaking industry and sets a standard for anyone in Egypt thinking about making a movie. Marwan Hamed drops on us, yet again, an amazing movie starting from screenplay, acting, cinematography and of course directing but the one thing that stands out for me is the storytelling which was in perfect order and timing although the runtime was a bit long, and also, WHAT A STORY from Ahmed Mourad !! Amazing use of cinematography in intense and damatic scenes without overdoing and without the need of any nudity to express the feelings of the characters. Mohamed Mamdouh is stunning yet again in all aspects along with Asser Yassin of course and Menna Shalabi and every actor in the movie in all fairness. I hope we could see a lot more of this from Egyptian filmmakers .... WELL-DONE !!!

I've seen some of Ahmed Mourad's work and I've read the novels and my mind is blown by the way the great Marwan Hamed adapted this amazing novel into an absolute masterpiece that just sets a new meaning for Egyptian movies in my opinion. the plot is amazing, the character development is just awesome and the characters themselves are well written and pretty thought-out, the acting is yet spot on and I can't say enough about the directing. just a masterpiece.

Diamond Dust feels like a two hour episode of Breaking Bad which is a great thing. The plot is very good, it's not often that you see an Egyptian film that relies more on acting and the plot more than action packed scenes or offensive comedies. There is only one part in the story that just seemed forced to keep it going which was kind of disappointing.

Menna Shalabi's performance is just amazing. The music seems a little derived from Dunkirk's ticking clock but it still was good.

This film can change how modern people view Egyptian film making industry again.
