Al Kameen

Al Kameen is a major qualitative leap in the history of Emirati and Gulf cinema in general. With a huge budget, Image Nation was able to present a war movie that will remain unforgettable. From the first scene in the movie, we can sense that we are on the cusp of a very different experience from what we are used to in our films. French director Pierre Morel succeeded with distinction in presenting a very elaborate war movie. He adhered to the most important standards of war films, which is to present a clear picture of the story and the difficult task of our heroes. He did not delve too much into the details of the characters and their backgrounds, and put us directly in the heart of the event and the suffering of its characters.

He chose a very ideal location for filming events. The most important is the elaborate sounds of gunfire and explosives that almost accompanied us throughout the film and made us feel our presence in the heart of the battle with them. The transition from one scene to another was very impressive and smooth, thanks to the amazing montage in this movie. The film's aesthetic was enhanced by a wonderful and very impressive soundtrack, especially in the last scenes of the film. And the acting crew was above excellent, and everyone gave a distinguished performance, and the reason is due to what this story and events mean to them.

Al Kameen is a war movie that deals with the unfortunate events suffered by Emirati soldiers and how they were rescued from this ambush. Although the film is patriotic, it is in the first place a very respectable movie, and it provided me with an enjoyable and touching experience with all its details. I advise everyone to watch it as soon as possible.

Al Kameen "a turning point in the history of Gulf cinema"

8/10.

Let me summarize Take a warmongering B-grade Hollywood movie, replace the English-language-speaking cast with Arabic-speaking ones of Atab ethnicity, translate the script into Arabic and you get absolute trash like this. Sadly, the actors also left a lot to be desired. The command post and the script depicting the tension is a photocopy from any run-of-the-mill Hollywood flick. The one in charge of the command room acted as if he was forced to do so with a gun held on his head. The lady in the room looked so planted. Glorifying war has been a Hollywood disease for a long, it is sad to see that the same disease has infected middle eastern cinemas too, a region that has been suffering from war.

Manichean film where terrorists drop like flies by the dozen while we are entitled to 15 minutes of tearful melodrama for the death of a single "nice" soldier. Otherwise the film is effective as an old american action film not very fine.

The hype was unfortunately unreal, i got mixed feelings because i really wanted to like this movie but they made it really hard with bad narration, poor character building and robotic conversations, the soundtrack was horrible could've been much much better, didn't want to be harsh judging this movie but it's really a big disappointment for me.

Completely overrated. This movie is not better than a second class Hollywood war movie. The script is so poor, it's appalling. Pyrotechnics must represent half of the film's budget!
