Good story, excellent character development. I enjoyed the movie's pace and story evolution. I would recommend for those who like foreign films.

Great feel good flick with a different story line than the normal romantic comedy. Enjoyed watching it!

I wasn't sure I'd like it but was pleasantly surprised. Amr Waked stole the movie. It wouldn't have been as good without him.
