Meskina

Dumb jokes, a poor script and very, very bad acting. This movie is supposed to be funny, but I think that only the script writers had a good time laughing about their own 'jokes'. Humor has got a lot to do with timing. This is completely off. It reminds me of the television shows on the Dutch tele in the '80's with one dimensional plots. Those shows were better.

Not bad.... A good movie funny / romantic story I recommend to you.

The first original Moroccan movie on Netflix.

We need more original Moroccan series and movies on the platform!!!!

I didn't expect it but the movie was quiet funny and story is great.

Maryam is great actress. Seemed that this role was written for her.

Finally a modern moroccan romantic comedy.

I think new moroccan generation is ready for it. At least in the Netherlands.

I hope for meskina 2.

I know that Dutch movies are not the greatest, but I think this movie is very important for Dutch people to watch. Both boys and girls. I could definitely relate to the story and I found it such a relief to have a story like this presented. Times have finally changed and I am happy that my daughter is growing up in a world where there are options!

"Meskina", a loser or pathetic, according to the local translation, "staying for auntie" in good Portuguese, a funny and sad film, is unfortunately what happens to many women who get married, leave their jobs, friends, home and all their possessions to follow their husband, and the protagonist almost makes the mistake twice... What an ending, Leyla's words are brave and necessary, good to know that this cry is coming from Moroccan culture, a society so patriarchal and sexist, just like most in the world... I am a Meskina, a Meskina by choice, successful and happy, I super loved the ending, girls and women need this film for life... Beautiful...

A thirty-something aspiring children's author, labeled "meskina" (pity case) by her Moroccan-Dutch community for still being career-less and single, sets out to once and for all find professional success and true love.
