Not recommended for movie snobs.....An Egyptian guy travels abroad looking for a better life and then encounters problems...action packed....

i went to see this movie because i am an Ahmad Ezz fan. I thought it would be a boring mundane, movie with cheap effects. Since i knew from the beginning that it would be an action flick as the writer is Nabil Farouk, a famous Egyptian writer who more or less plagiarizes western ideas, Egyptianize them...and give a good interesting plot...the movie was exactly that...fun to watch...the screenplay was funny and witty....the female costar Yasmine Abdelaziz was a bit 'over' as usual. She doesn't change that much from one movie to another, she acts herself most of the time. Nour, the crazy super villain was surprisingly good in her role, she managed to act well with the right amount of exaggeration . The director Sandra gets better from one film to another. I think overall it was a good entertaining Egyptian action flick....do not expect Oscar material and you will enjoy the fun.So not recommended for movie snobs....
