    Hidden Gem

    The director and the actors painted a clear and detailed picture of that era in Egypt. Even if you're not an Egyptian, you'll be able to relate to the movie in a way. Storytelling was smooth, and the cinematography is one of the best in the Egyptian cinema industry.

    It's depressing

    I hated the fact that I wasted 2 hours and my internet bundle on this movie, there's nothing nice about it , at ALL! Even menna's acting is worse than her other movies.

    Crazy , sad and depressing

    I love Mena, she is a great actress, but this movie is really bad , it's depressing , it shows how the evil people run away and no one sue them , where the innocent people stay and live a hard life and could go to jail for crimes they didn't commit , which is depressing I would never recommend this movie , coz it's depressing really At the end , I wished she stole and sold whatever she stole to get herself a flat and live with her husband.
