Disappointing movie

[mahmoudtakey · 1/10 · 25 June 2023]

While you watch this movie ,you will feel that you are wasting your time almost 2 hours of nothing, very boring, nothing new ,the same joking way of chico since 20 years , over acting from most of the actors, I couldn't find something that makes me wait to see the end of this Movie , it could be a nice one for 4;9 years kids , only one character that take me a while smiling in some scenes , this movie is supposed to be a light comedy one buy actually it is a heavy unliked comedy, very boring again and again, the Director thinks that he can use the same way of scenes/silly jokes that he uses since 20 years, Time is over guys ,try to do some hard work, I believe you have shot the whole movie in 7 days , ..

From Grocery Store to Gangsters

[sanadalsalt · 7/10 · 28 November 2023]

So, I just watched Ibn Al-Hajj Ahmed and let me tell you, it was quite the rollercoaster of emotions. I mean, on one hand, you've got this young merchant, Ahmed, just trying to make a living in his father's grocery store. And then BAM! He's suddenly faced with a gang and has to team up with Nabila to deal with them. Talk about unexpected plot twists, am I right?

First off, let's talk about Ahmed. I mean, the guy is just your average Joe trying to make ends meet, and yet he finds himself in the middle of all this drama. I couldn't help but root for him the whole time. And then there's Nabila, who brings a whole new level of sass and spunk to the table. I loved watching their dynamic unfold as they navigated through the chaos together.

Now, let's get real for a second. The plot was a bit all over the place at times. I mean, one minute we're dealing with gangsters, and the next we're getting a glimpse into Ahmed's personal life. It felt a bit disjointed, if you ask me. And don't even get me started on the pacing. It felt like we were sprinting through some scenes and then crawling through others. Can we get a little consistency here, people?

But hey, I can't deny that there were some genuinely funny moments sprinkled throughout the film. I found myself chuckling more than once, and that's always a good sign. And the chemistry between Ahmed and Nabila? It was off the charts. I mean, who doesn't love a good ol' will-they-won't-they dynamic?

All in all, I'd give Ibn Al-Hajj Ahmed a solid 7/10. It had its ups and downs, but it kept me entertained and had me invested in the characters. Plus, any movie that can make me laugh and root for the underdog is a winner in my book. So, if you're in the mood for a quirky, action-packed comedy, give it a watch. You won't be disappointed!
