Bad acting from the younger actors
The ideas were strong and to the point, but the presentation was not as strong, but it was acceptable. The only thing that was unacceptable was Ahmed Malik's acting and Jamila's frozen reactions. Bad acting, good writing, classic idea but also good.
I have to say I loved putting sherin reda as a Christian and gamila awad as a follower so not all people will deal well with independence so she had to learn the hard way her lesson that freedom of thinking and speech and conducting your life isn't a burden, it's right and no good comes from giving it up
I hope to see more like this in Egypt anyway.

Beautiful movie with a another disgusting political agenda.
Great cinematography, great scenario with acting above the average but the political views that are trying to be invisible are quite visible, especially if you know who writer is and his political positions.
Exceptional Acting
Honestly, while the story was somewhat debate documentary style, I think it did an exceptional job with the cinematography and it's really rare one can say every actor in this movie did an amazing job. Extremely entertaining thriller with a slow burn twist. Absolutely loved it.
Real message through true art. Must watch.
The directness of the movie and how it got the message transmitted through simple scenery and methods is what makes this important movie so enjoyable to watch. The message of the movie comes at a time when it is most needed and how it is artistically presented is what is most intriguing. A must watch movie regardless of our backgrounds, a movie destined to all ages, all nationalities, all religions...
Good acting but doesn't justify how terrible the story is
So the main headline of the story, you either agree with the writer's point of view, or you're automatically classifird as either an ignorant or a terrorist, as simple as that.
Pure Intellectual terrorism
