Mousa

An unexpected film from Egypt. Clear cultural differences in characters and character development. It's funny to read the other reviews here. So many obviously fake supportive reviews. That being said it is an interesting and original idea and I imagine a bit controversial in the country since their own government is their main enemy today. I don't think Egypt wants Mousa coming after the corrupt government and religious leaders who betrayed Arab Spring.

I can't really comment on the acting since I am watching subtitles. There is a young lady who is one of the leads who is gorgeous and has star power. Honestly didn't get her name but can see her having a career far beyond this little movie and Egypt.

The film is very beautiful, but there are some errors, as in any film, such as that the visual effects are rather weak and the events were very fast. You could have provided the film for another hour. I wanted to see a flashback to yahia when he was young and the difficulties he faces and the acting of Karim Abdel Ezzi is very legendary. I really enjoyed, and I hope the second part quickly. It will be a wonderful movies, but I want the second part quickly. Please, this cinematic world will change the entire Egyptian cinema.

An Egyptian attempt into superhero genre, inspired by Hollywood blockbusters like IRON MAN or CHAPPIE.

Story wise it was quite messy with an annoyingly awkward & extremely shy character on the lead (the engineering college student who invents Mousa, the robot). It seems like the team behind the film wasn't much sure of the idea and how to actually plot & execute it with a sensible & engaging approach.

Though there's a college professor who was kinda against him for some lame reason but there was actually no clear antagonist in this film. Although there was a plot element that could have been use as a tool to make it interesting; just for a change, by turning it into an anti-superhero or vigilante film (!)....like a evil group of people gets hold of that robot and somehow manipulates its creator (Yehia) to serve their interest only, resulting the thin line between right & wrong, justice or plain vengeance eventually gone blurry. At the end it would be the protagonist's journey to rectify his mistakes, finally make some better decisions and becomes the hero that he deserves to be.

A nice attempt to make a different Egyptian movie.. although, they didn't succeed that well.

It could be better, the scenes are moving very fast, sometimes without any explanation.

What i liked the most is kareem's act and his expressions.

Great acting everyone did a great job portraying they characters, the graphics were really good (but looked unrealistic in certain shots), there are very small plot holes and the scenario had tiny mistakes, but none of those mistakes affect your experience, there were beautiful shots and challenging scenes. I highly recommend it and I can guarantee you that you will enjoy it.
