The Bliss of Being No One (2016)
Good acting and writing, not so good directing.
I liked the acting, especially Ibrahim Al-Hasawi's performance, he was good. The writing was really good. I liked Abu Naji's character, he was like a messenger between people. He takes one's feelings and emotions and passes it on to another, as if to say "you're not alone.".
Last thing I want to talk about is directing. I don't know why the director chose the long shot at the Cafe! Though it shows the ability of the two actors, but it also shows the laziness of the director. Maybe they faced some obstacles, I don't know!
Barakah yoqabil Barakah (2016)
Shameful, disgusting, and misleading.
From a Muslim and an Arabic person who is proud of his culture, I find this film offensive to Islam teachings and values. I guess this film was written as an American film but somehow the director thought it would be OK to make a Saudi version of it. It's not only against Islam teachings and what prohphet Mohammad -peace be upon him- told us, it's trying make that kind of behavior acceptable in our society. He criticized the society for things the society didn't come up with, things that are from Islam teachings as I mentioned. The director knew his movie will never be acceptable. Because if he doesn't know that, this movie would be on Netflix in MENA.
