There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Khaled Youssef, the director that worked with Chahine since early 1990s, has do nothing but reproducing the famous work of Chaine which was released in early 1990s. Originally a biblical story, Khaled Youssef adopts the traditional narrative, acts, and symbols that Chahine used in his movie. Frankly I can't continue watching Khaled Youssef movies as my mind used to recall Chahine's movies during the watching. He always tries to be Chahine II, but unfortunately Chaine has gone without giving the keys of his talent to Khaled! Nowadays, Mr. Khaled said that his movie was a prophecy of Egyptian Revolution, I wonder how he said the comment, the end of his movie refers to the collapse of the Egyptian Society, not to his great revolution.
