Drôle de Lune de miel

A particularly progressive film for an Islamic country like Kuwait Beautiful landscapes hotels and all the things you think you are in a western country. Typical American script with a little dose of Islamic standards and the local way of life in Kuwait and Lebanon. The funniest part of the story was whether or not the couple were actually brother and sister.

Too many laughs in the first part of the film.

The only doo of the movie was the fat girl's thick hair and her rather exaggerated way of expressing herself. The groom was quite restrained.

At least me and my wife had a good time in this movie.

The final song is Hayo by Robert Alasaad noted in the end of the movie and also easily shazamed !

6/10.

I watched this movie out of curiosity. "Romantic Comedy" and "Kuwait" are not words you usually think of together. Also I wanted to see how much romance would make it into a Kuwaiti movie.

"Honeymoonish" is flawed but it has its moments. The best thing in the movie is the male lead, Mahmoud Boushahri, as Hamad. Bousharhri is bursting with charm and charisma and he is very handsome.

Hamad is the serious and ambitious son of a wealthy businessman. His father tells Hamad that he must marry in order to advance in the company.

Boushahri perfectly captures Hamad's seriousness and ambition.

Noor (Noor Al Ghandour) is a fitness teacher who loves Youssef. Youssef dumps Noor because he is forced to marry his cousin, as is customary in their culture. To get back at Youssef, Noor wants to marry immediately. Her needs and Hamad's needs meet, and they marry, though they met only once.

The movie gets bogged down in repetitive scenes of Noor yearning for Youssef and Noor having over the top temper tantrums. She yells and screams a lot and her instability and childishness is unattractive. The script writers clearly don't have a positive view of women. Not surprising given the cultural context.

But Boushahri's charisma and his chemistry with Noor work very well for the film. Also, the film is a fun watch because of all the fantasy settings -- Middle Eastern playgrounds of the idle rich. Swanky hotels and beaches.

Noor Al Ghandour, the female lead, is gorgeous and she really deserves a better script that shows a tad more respect for a female lead. And less lip filler, please.

I wish I could watch another film with these two leads.

I love watching movies from parts of the world I only know through news reports. Gorgeous scenery and real chemistry between the two leads. It is a story that's been told hundreds of times but not from this country. The whole sister mystery was very strange but only from my western point of view. And I liked that Noor was an active, athletic woman. The only thing I couldn't understand was what she saw in her ex boyfriend, he seemed like a dull, possessive blockhead.

So if you are open-minded and like a breezy Kuwaiti rom-com, you will enjoy this movie. It has an innocence to it that I love about international films.

It is so nice to watch something different, and it is so funny in the same time. I didn't know that Kuwait have night clubs. Also, they looks very modern, like it is not really from Kuwait. After this movie, I have a wish to travel there and explore this country. Only one thing what I did not like, I don't understand what is happened with lips of the Main acter, lipa are simply exaggerate i and it is not nice for actor. We expect that actor from Kuwait be more natural. Also, in move miss more colors, I believe in their Couture they have it more. This is not wasted time and I enjoyed the movie.

Both leads are not from Kuwait plus to much different dialect the sub was not good like u know Netflix. The female was fakeing to much her acting was way to unreal. The way they copying western culture is unbelievable.
