6 Days

Words can't describe the beauty of this film - it truly deserves a 100%. This is the first time I've ever been this impressed by an Arabic movie. The story feels incredibly real and relatable, and every song featured in the film touches the heart.

Every detail in the film has meaning and is beautifully done - the glances, the music, the dialogues, and the words. Even though not everyone experiences the same kind of ending in real life, the film's message is powerful and deeply meaningful.

Since I live in Europe, I couldn't watch it in theaters, but I highly recommend anyone living in an Arab country to see it in cinemas if they can.

I've always had a deep love for Arabic and especially Egyptian cinema. They've always been a part of me-stories full of heart, culture, emotion, and often a kind of beautiful sadness. But even though I've seen so many, it's rare to come across a film that quietly stays with you long after it ends. 6 Days is one of those rare few.

When I read the synopsis, something in me immediately lit up. The themes of nostalgia and reunions-two things that have always hit a very personal part of my soul. There's something so beautiful and yet painfully bittersweet about them. I can't even explain why, but there's something incredibly moving about two people finding each other again after time has passed. It's beautiful... and it's heartbreaking. That mix of emotion is so hard to capture It's not easy to capture those emotions without falling into clichés or overdramatization, but 6 Days does it with such sincerity and restraint in the most delicate, genuine way.

Now that I've watched it, I can say it's one of the most touching movies I've seen. It may not be the most perfect or complex or groundbreaking film ever made, but it doesn't need to be. Within its genre it absolutely shines. In its simplicity, it carries something real. It's a gentle, quiet story about two people who carry the weight of time, regret, and unspoken feelings-and for a few days, they try to understand each other again.

From the very beginning, you could sense that this film was born out of something real. The story, centered around two characters reconnecting after years apart, unfolds almost like a gentle conversation-intimate, raw, and layered with unspoken emotions. Watching them reflect on their past, share quiet regrets, and rediscover parts of themselves through each other felt incredibly honest. It's not a movie that tells you what to feel-it allows you to feel it on your own.

What struck me most was how honest it felt. You can tell the writer poured real emotions, struggles and feelings into this. I imagine they, too, struggled with memories they couldn't forget. You can almost feel them trying to protect themselves from their own nostalgia-trying not to let their heart take over completely. Yet tried hard not to let personal sentiment take over completely. That balance made the film feel grounded, not indulgent.

In a way, it reminded me of Past Lives, but I wouldn't call it the Egyptian version of anything. 6 Days stands on its own. It is distinctly Egyptian in its soul and storytelling. It speaks its own language. It tells its story with Egyptian warmth, sorrow, and quiet strength.

The two main actors were everything. Their performances were raw and natural, like watching two real people relive something they never quite healed from. Their chemistry wasn't loud or dramatic-it was soft, full of silence and looks and things left unsaid. Carrying the emotional weight of the story with grace. You believed every glance, every hesitation, every small smile they shared. Their scenes together felt more like real-life moments than scripted lines. And that made it even more emotional.

The directing, the cinematography, the music-all of it matched the tone of the film perfectly. It wasn't trying to impress-it was trying to feel.

It isn't just a film about a reunion. It's a reminder of how time changes people, but not always the connection between them. It's about memory, missed chances, and the quiet hope of finding something meaningful again-even if only for a moment.

6 Days is not just a movie-it's a quiet ache. A memory. A soft goodbye.

If you believe in the beauty of moments that come too late... this is for you.

If you, like me, find beauty in stories about lost time, second chances, and the emotional weight of the past, it will speak to you. It's not just worth watching-it's worth feeling.

No enough words can explain how I felt during watching this movie.

I love literally EVERYTHING in this movie, from the songs picks to the minimalistic things throughout the years to the direction.

Karim Shabaan's direction made me feel like I AM Yousef (Ahmed Malek), I felt that if it's everything that has happened to him has happened to me too.

I love how the cast managed to make everything seem realistic and not just boring additions in the script, I relate so much to it that i couldn't stop tearing at some point.

I also love how Ahmed & Ayah managed to act the characters pretty well that, as I mentioned, felt like i'm the main character in it.

To all the cast, thank you for this masterpiece. Please, we need more of these.

"6 Days" is a delightful Egyptian romantic movie that I thoroughly enjoyed. The story is sweet and engaging, focusing on a love story that feels genuine and heartfelt. The lead actors share great chemistry, making their relationship believable ,What stood out to me were the music choices each track perfectly complemented the scenes, adding an extra layer of emotion to the story. While the film doesn't break new ground in the romance genre, it's a well executed and enjoyable watch.

Overall, "6 Days" is a solid romantic film with a touching story and a great soundtrack. It's worth watching if you're in the mood for something heartfelt and charming.

I don't remember what the last movie I watched in English or Arabic was without using my phone during it. But I watched this movie without a single moment of boredom, one of the best romantic movies I have ever seen in my life.

The best thing about this movie is its simplicity. It feels like us. It doesn't include overly emotional scenes; it just reflects our everyday lives and our stories.

And the worst thing about this movie is that I didn't have a gf to watch it with. :"""D

Seriously, I feel like I need to share this experience with someone, how simple and smooth the film is, how you never feel bored, and how it truly reflects reality.
