Frente a frente

The film is a mix of slapstick humor, absurd situations, and goofy characters. But, Man, this flick was a total dud. Their idea of humor? Old, cringe-worthy jokes you could see coming a mile off. Not to mention it's packed with tasteless and flat stereotypes. They're trying way too hard to be funny and it's just painful to watch.

Seriously, there's not a shred of originality here. They've totally lifted their plot from other awesome movies, but trust me, this one's nowhere near as good. The characters are straight-up cliches, so dull they could put you to sleep.

Don't even get me started on how unrealistic this thing is. They've got characters doing the dumbest stuff, and the storyline's all over the place. It's like they threw logic out the window when they made this.

If you're hoping to be entertained, think again.

First, I really liked the effort put into displaying and showing the quality of production in the movie. The plot was decent, nothing much to talk about, and I really enjoyed the comedy, which made me laugh. Also, while the acting was nice, the story didn't serve the actors, or, let's say, it didn't give the actors the space to demonstrate how good they are. Additionally, I can't pass the sequence of events, which I didn't like, and I see that the movie moved so fast, and that is my opinion. I should really appreciate the directing and shooting style, and I can recall specific scenes where I really adored the position of the camera and how it moved in some scenes. Nice movie to watch.

Although I'm big fan of westerns I found this one very amusing since its has obvious spaghetti western influence in term of sound tracks,, however in matter of directing I find it very good and for casting I found it amazing especially the actor Abdulaziz Alshehri with his natural jokes Also I like the Idea of this bad reputation town or city as location but what I like the most is the shots with grooms showing the beautiful landscape and Riyadh from a distance I think since the Saudis are new to the business they are doing very well.

Showing this amount of talented actors and high potential in the movie industry ,, good for them keep going with the same effort.
