    that was so bad

    I didn't even know what the story is, Acting is one of the worst things in this movie, There are more negatives than the positives in this movie. but, The two things I liked were the quality of work and the music.

    good

    It's really fun to watch this movie . there is a lot of things that make this movie enjoyable , soundtrack , the representation of how life was in 1960 , the direction did great job on running those aspects . but , it still is missing a lot to be called a great movie , if you're watching it just for fun , or because you have a big meal that you want to finish while watching something , this is probably a good movie for that , but if you want a movie to completely make you forget who you are , a movie that travels with you to a whole new world , a whole new dimension , this is not it.

    one of the worst ever

    I can't even believe how Ahmed Helmy agreed to act in this so called movie ! it lacks every aspect of film making. don't waste your time watching this nonsense
