Waste of time

[zainabkaissi · 1/10 · 5 May 2024]

I wasted 2 hours of me and my friend's life.

A movie to be forgotten.

Story doesn't reflect the real Arabic society specifically not that of Kuwait The scenario can't be written any worse.

The act is below average and the ending is very cliche.

The same story has been repeated in all the languages like a million time.

No value what so ever.

The only thing I found beautiful was the location it's truly mesmerising.

The direction and the quality of production were good too.

The song in the end of the movie is very attracting but I couldn't find the full song anywhere!

All in all I would not recommend watching.

Fun film from a different culture

[mbritton1776 · 7/10 · 6 May 2024]

I love watching movies from parts of the world I only know through news reports. Gorgeous scenery and real chemistry between the two leads. It is a story that's been told hundreds of times but not from this country. The whole sister mystery was very strange but only from my western point of view. And I liked that Noor was an active, athletic woman. The only thing I couldn't understand was what she saw in her ex boyfriend, he seemed like a dull, possessive blockhead.

So if you are open-minded and like a breezy Kuwaiti rom-com, you will enjoy this movie. It has an innocence to it that I love about international films.

Way to much

OK but typical romcom

[greekdx · 7/10 · 13 May 2024]

A particularly progressive film for an Islamic country like Kuwait Beautiful landscapes hotels and all the things you think you are in a western country. Typical American script with a little dose of Islamic standards and the local way of life in Kuwait and Lebanon. The funniest part of the story was whether or not the couple were actually brother and sister.

Too many laughs in the first part of the film.

The only doo of the movie was the fat girl's thick hair and her rather exaggerated way of expressing herself. The groom was quite restrained.

At least me and my wife had a good time in this movie.

The final song is Hayo by Robert Alasaad noted in the end of the movie and also easily shazamed !

6/10.

Unoriginal except for one thing...

[Adamanthe · 1/10 · 2 May 2024]

The storyline is unoriginal. You might have seen it in many different films. Two people are brought together becomes of circumstance, and they seek each other to get back at someone. The female character's boyfriend marries a woman behind her back, so she declares that she is open to marry anyone. The male character is pressured into marriage by his father and if he does not fulfil those demands he will be disinherited and forbidden from making any changes to the company. Their bestfriends happen to be married to each other, so they link them up.

There is nothing original in this story except for one aspect and it is the fact that the two main characters, that do not know each other well, are likely milk-siblings which is a forbidden marriage in Islam. This is incest-adjacent and quite repulsive even if it is presented in this whimsical manner.

Great movie

[vpzrptd · 9/10 · 6 May 2024]

It is so nice to watch something different, and it is so funny in the same time. I didn't know that Kuwait have night clubs. Also, they looks very modern, like it is not really from Kuwait. After this movie, I have a wish to travel there and explore this country. Only one thing what I did not like, I don't understand what is happened with lips of the Main acter, lipa are simply exaggerate i and it is not nice for actor. We expect that actor from Kuwait be more natural. Also, in move miss more colors, I believe in their Couture they have it more. This is not wasted time and I enjoyed the movie.
