... because I'd have made millions by now, if only Cinescape had half a brain...
Badal Fakeed (Arabic): The film about the twin brothers where each one of them grew up in a different environment. The first one got a dopted by a lady dancer and lived in a poor area, while the second one was adopted by a good family. The first one grow up to be a drug dealer but the second one became a police officer.
God this one sounds so familiar. Have I mocked it before? Perhaps. Let's have another go.
So they're twins separated at birth. What a simple, simple sentence. One of them's been adopted by a lady dancer (i.e hooker), and the other guy got adopted by a good family. Lo and behold, the two are to confront in a world full of lies and deceit, where the twin brothers are on opposite sides of the law. Who will make it out alive?
Who gives a shit.
Dokan Shehata (Arabic): Shehata is the son of farmer who opened a fruit shop and was named after his son Shehata. Shahata suffering from the influence of his brothers and their bad treatment which end up in tragedy. The film discusses the problems and the bad situations which affected the community.
Hold on. Shehata is the son of farmer who opened a fruit shop and was named after his son Shehata. What the fuck? That makes no sense at all. Are both the father and son named Shehata? The fruit shop is definitely named Shehata. Are these people morons? Then, Shehata (I have no idea which Shehata it is at this point), suffers from the influence and bad treatment of his brothers (who are most probably called Shehata), with everything inevitably ending up in tragedy - with, of course, the staple Egyptian subplot of "discussing" bad situations that are affecting the community - naturally masked by horrendous camera work and below-par soap opera acting.
Also, check out Cinescape's poster for the movie in comparison with the poster above. Notice the big-titted woman. Painfully ironic - or just plain pathetic.
I can't fucking wait.
