This movie is without exaggeration one of the worst cinematic experiences I've ever had. It tries desperately to be funny but relies almost entirely on cheap, inappropriate jokes Not once did I genuinely laugh only cringed.
Tamer Hosny feels like he's stuck in 2008 using outdated humor and an acting style that hasn't evolved in over a decade. It's like watching someone who hasn't realized the world has moved on and not in a charming, nostalgic way but in a painfully awkward one.
The film is so bad, it's almost impossible to finish. You find yourself constantly checking the time wondering how much longer you have to endure this mess.

Cheap acting, weak storyline, and painfully slow pacing make this movie a complete bore. The plot goes nowhere, the performances are flat, and the whole thing feels like a waste of time. A burning disappointment from start to finish. Skip it.
Overall, a forgettable film that's not worth your time or money.

It's not a movie, it's a set of scenes after eachother. No story, no funny scenes, no plot twist, almost +18 due to some inappropriate language and scenes, so definitely not for children. I lost two hours of my life and paid for them. I Don't recommend it at all. Don't waste your time and money, it's very disappointing.
Restart pleasantly surprised me with its blend of humor, heart, and social commentary. The film explores how social media and the quest for online fame affect personal relationships and identity in today's world. Tamer Hosny delivers a sincere and charismatic performance that feels authentic, while Hana El Zahed brings a lively and relatable presence to the screen. Their chemistry makes the romantic elements feel genuine and engaging.
The supporting cast, including Mohamed Tharwat and Bassem Samra, add humor and energy that balance well with the film's emotional moments. The story moves at a good pace, with vibrant visuals and a soundtrack that perfectly matches the film's upbeat tone.
While some jokes might feel a bit exaggerated or predictable, the film never loses its charm or the important message it conveys. Overall, Restart is an entertaining and thoughtful film that reflects the challenges of modern life in a fun and accessible way. It's definitely worth watching for those interested in contemporary social issues wrapped in a lighthearted romantic comedy.

The topic truly deserves to be discussed, as we are currently suffering from it.
We're talking about the negative aspects of TikTok and the internet in general, and how these platforms have begun to affect generations-especially children and young people. It has become easy for anyone to gain fame and money through meaningless content that lacks real value.
At the same time, we cannot deny that the internet has become an essential part of our lives. It's used in critical areas such as banking, universities, education, and more. However, the problem doesn't lie in the tool itself, but in how people use it.
What truly bothers me is that these issues could have been presented in a much better way-without the vulgarity or embarrassment we often feel while watching certain scenes or hearing certain expressions, especially when we're with family.
Unfortunately, such suggestive language and scenes have become a common feature in most modern Egyptian films, to the point where one feels ashamed to watch them in the presence of others.
