Alhamour H.A.

The movie I saw recently was below average. It lacked originality and failed to capture my attention. The story felt flat and the characters were uninteresting. The cinematography and special effects were nothing memorable and the soundtrack added nothing to the overall experience. The pacing was off and the movie felt drawn-out and slow. The characters seemed one dimensional and lacked any real depth. However, while it may be entertaining in parts, there are far too many cliches and moments of convenient coincidences to make it worth watching. Overall, it was not a waste of time and i did actually enjoyed the movie. As a local from Jeddah, you can appreciate the efforts they did to take you back in the early 2000s.

A security guard who quickly rises to the top and makes billions, where he and his partners convince people into suspicious investments with the promise of doubling their money in no time.

The film is a drama based on dark comedy, and tells in a distinctly Hollywood manner the story of the most famous fraud by issuing contributions on Sawa recharge cards in Saudi Arabia about 20 years ago, which was known at the time as Hammour Sawa.

The film's idea was characterized by its bold presentation, realism, and events that attracted the viewer from the first to the last moments.

It's a must seen movie.

I am beyond thrilled and amazed by the individuality and uniqueness in the recent Saudi filmmaking process !!! I am Saudi myself and words cannot describe how proud I am to have such amazing work done in my country and YES this is what we love to see! Something new and different that give us an extraordinary experience when we watch it ! Also shoutout to Khaled yeslam for the amazing acting he bodied the role so well! Everyone did a great job too but he is one of my fav actors but sadly I don't see him as much in screens but he did shine in this piece of art ! Storyline and camera work and everything is breathtaking in this movie thanks to everyone who helped in making this masterpiece !! Looking forward for more amazing and magical stuff ! Xoxo.

The movie is a I understand the +18 rating as it pushes the boundaries in saudi cinema when it comes to explicit content, the acting is spot on with a few misses when it comes to the chemistry between the lead actor and his second wife. The cinematography is not consistent as you got some top notch shots followed by mediocre ones, it's like different teams worked on the project. The dialogue is very smart and the world building of early 2000's saudi is a refreshing nostalgia.

My main critique is that you can tell the movie took notes from wolf of wallstreet, and in someway it felt cringe

Overall, the movie is a fun, daring, sincere and true to the real story and I consider it a big step up to where Saudi cinema started.

What a nostalgic brilliant piece of art!

Saudi Arabia before and after..

The movie is based on a true story yet the story telling was so nostalgic and represented an era that we all lived and connected to the bitter sweet of it. Some might find it too bold but I loved how transparent it was. The humor and jokes were AMAZING.

I don't get the bad review, do yourself a favor and watch it! Acting was top notch! The main characters did an amazing job! Cant wait to see them all star in other movies.

Best Saudi movie so far! Watched it 4 times already and don't mind watching it again (probably on Netflix).
