Cairo 6,7,8 Audience Reviews

Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Jeanskynebu the audience applauded
Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
navdp A must watch for all pro and against '#metoo' campaigners. Technically the movie lacks depth, nevertheless the content and the intensity of the actors and the characters make it worth a watch.The movie expresses very slightly the vague, delicate part of human nature which contributes to harassing the oppressed sex.Scriptwriter Daib deserves praise for handling such an issue in a most emphatic way. All the actors get into the characters effortlessly.
Histoire et Fiction Three women of different social backgrounds decide to fight back after being the victims of repeated assaults by men in the street or in the bus. This movie manages to address the delicate issue of sexual assaults on women in a very interesting way: each character has a unique standpoint and no moral judgment is imposed in the end. There is a little zest of comedy in the tragedy, some truly powerful and positive moments, and despite some stereotypical characters, the film avoids caricature. The three heroines are credible and endearing. Their relationships with men are complex, and it is hard not to ask yourself: What would I do if I faced the same challenges as they face? A perfect movie to watch on 8 March... International Women's Day.
jimmuhcu It is the movie based on a true story that once happened in the Egypt, that three women raised their voice against the heinous and poignant situation of sexual harassment against the ladies in the Egypt. I have surprised that how this much sexual harassment happening in the Egypt!! The director has given a clear picture of how much depth is in the amount of sexual harassment in this particular country and their women. Here there are four couple's stories narrated by the director, from this all three couples relation is not going in a well off manner, in all three women getting some king of problems created by their husbands, and all three were suffering due to their husband problems. Another interesting noted things here is the when women raised their voice against any kind of harassment, nobody is supporting on this and they are asking that if anything lost from them, if anything from them then only chance for the attention of others will try to help the victims, such interesting situation. In the police department also they are looking on the mens side rather than the victims. I think based on the attempt of three women one law passed in Egypt against the sexual harassment as crime, in Egypt.
dr_araman CAIRO 6,7,8:Mohamed Diab, the director should be congratulated for this gripping presentation of the silent humiliation suffered by Egyptian women and the courage of three women in fighting back against all odds. If Fayza's simple step brings he system to the point of examining its flaws, Seba and Nelly garner the much needed support to provide a platform for the voice of the suffering women. The sound track is excellent and the editing is superb, providing the best support to the clear and commendable cinematography. All the characters have acted so well, it looks as if it is happening in our presence. One of the best films destined to change the perspective of the society in the way it allows such gross injustice to go unpunished. The end is dramatic and deeply touching, adding a feather in the director's cap.
