This movie really surprised me. Despite the relatively low budget, it has exciting action scenes. it also has a great story that is realistic and keeps you attentive. A must watch and an instant Lebanese classic film. It is nice how the writer approached Lebanese politics in a very bold way that would leave people saying this guy is going to be put in jail for showing things that politicians don't want to the public to see. It is one of these movies that leaves you agitated and ready to start working for a change. The actors are highly professional and unlike most Lebanese and Arab acting their performance was very believable and seemingly effortless.
Very exciting movie and amazing performance from the actress Yara Fares! (Jihan Nasr in the movie) I'm very proud to see new astonishing faces in the Lebanese cinema. Mainly an action movie: it's the first one in my knowledge, so to all the Lebanese out there, it's a must-watch movie and a new experience in the region.
I also realized that the budget was really low so thumbs up to all the team for the great work. And action movie like this one deserves a big budget with a big production. Let's hope for a better future to the Lebanese cinema. Until then, let's enjoy what we have: the story, the actors, and the message behind the movie.
