Dollar

This series is one of Netflix productions in the middle east, the story is new and creative but there were some issues in the plot and how they shift from scene to scene like superpower couple. Adel and Amel did a really good job though.

Very good acting from every one worth the time the episode with d. Rafi was amazing also the episode when Tarek play as shepherd man it was very nice

Knowing how bad lebanese tv can be, I think this show does pretty well in terms of directing, engaging script, and attention to details. the suspense keeps you going all the way to the last episode but it's barely enough to leave a good impression. Because the premise of the show makes every episode more or less independent of the one before it, it is important to know when to stop, and I think the producers didnt. It went on for 5 or 6 episodes too long, tried to touch on every social issue under the sun, and lost its personality along the way. Is it a comedy? A crime? A drama? A romance? It tries to be all but unfortunately is none. In terms of acting, Adel Karam is stellar in some scenes and mediocre in others, but paired with the disaster of an attempt of an actor that is Amal Bouchoucha, he carries the show well but singlehandedly. Had the show starred an actress who is capable of (1) acting better than an 8 year old in a school production of Sayf 840, (2) speak good Lebanese (3) be in a shot without requiring full makeup and tight clothes, I would have given it an 8/10.

The series start off with a well proposed plot, but afterwards it is not well executed. The initial opening is clever, where the executive gives out a dollar to a taxi driver. However, then the executive disappears from the scene. Each episode becomes repetitive with the couple searching, getting close to finding yet failing to obtain the dollar. I was able to watch it until the 6th episode before I got really bored.

Other pros: main actors are really talented, and I enjoyed the fact that series moved through different parts of Beirut. Had the plot been better executed it would have easily received 9 or 10 stars.

Arabic show is very good show and I hope that every see this show
