Basma

Yes it has cliches and the phd pitch didn't make full sense,, but what exactly are you comparing it too? Because compared to other middle eastern productions this is definitely a showpiece!

Living in the middle east, I particularly enjoy the concept and the message it conveys because we still have people who don't believe in mental illnesses.

You need to understand the difficult job the producers had to balance out between what an Arab audience wants and what international audiences wants

I'm happy to see saudi actors doing their thing and I honestly don't see anything massively wrong with the acting,, like it wasn't distracting to me or anything

all in all, it was a pleasant watch and I was definitely hooked.

I loved this movie, the acting and directing is top notch. The movie have a very deep story and a strong message. I don't mind watching this movie a million times!!

Fatima Albanawi movies are always great, in my opinion she is a natural in acting. It's also nice to see rising stars like Eisa Hafiz. They both have bright futures in the show business industry.

Of course all of Fatima's movies are amazing but other movies that I watched recently for the star Fatima and I highly recommend are Barakah Meets Barakah that was one of her first master pieces. As well as the thriller and action movie Route 10.

Hope you enjoy it as much as I did :)

I have no words to describe this , I don't even call it a movie .. obviously the actors are not professional actors and the story is written poorly .

It seems that the actress Fatma , produced & wrote & directed even acted as the main character just for an opportunity to look pretty with a charisma

The father character is poorly talented , we didn't understand what's his mental illness and what caused it . The funny thing was the mother left him and divorced him because he is a danger and threat to there lives , yet she got back with him for no reason & Without context in the movie

with that said , it's rubbish .

So this is not a real work or any sort of art .. it's a waste of time for viewers.

Honestly , Amateur work.

The author of the story did not bother with any construction to the story narrative , so eventually you will get lost in every scene that you will never connect with the other , moreover there was no specific narrative construction for every character .. so good luck if you could understand this mess .

The first scene: The night party which ended suddenly finding themselves in a sheep barn!!!! What does that mean?

Scene Two: a construction site with Random bulldozers chosen to be the site of a romantic conversation. Then morning comes , and the workers begin working around them with their presence raising no questions!! What does that mean?

The third scene: It is the worst of all, when a woman spoke to her in the hospital in the most random way , with a meaningless conversation! Basma ask her: Is the juice machine working? " the random lady " answers her that some things cannot be fixed! Basma then ask her if there is any hope to repair the machine? She answers, "My name is Amal " hope in Arabic ". Do you think there is Amal?" What the hell is this nonsense?

When I got to the middle of the film, I wondered: Who is the producer who has the courage to produce nonsense like this? But I understood when I saw that the producer is the same as the author, writer, and the leading actress...complete nonsense.

The movie fails to captivate with its unengaging story, leaving viewers feeling disconnected. The acting is notably lackluster, with performers often appearing to recite lines devoid of genuine emotion. The dialogue is disappointingly basic, offering little in the way of intrigue or depth. The lead actress performance is particularly underwhelming, contributing to the film's overall flatness. Additionally, the movie is riddled with clichés, making it a tedious watch. Prepare for moments that may elicit cringes as you endure this cinematic misstep.

I would not recommend watching the movie as it's a waste of time.
