An Egyptian Movie that Worth watching world wide

I decided to write this review after I watched the movie Kingdom of Heaven I watched this movie about 10 times or so, and I'm ready to watch it again really great movie and gathers a lot of best actors in Egyptian cinema the story line is the original story of Salah Eldin and the crusades in Bayt EL-Makdes as documented in History The Movie shows the Human side of the great leader, the manners of Arabs specially in wars.It Showed that although Salah El Din is Richard-Lion Heart's enemy but his principles refused him to accept to betray him and accept what August tried to offer him to retreat his troops and betray Richard Lots and Lots of situations and all lead to same result A real Great Movie

Interesting but too much influenced by previous English-world movies / books

Overall it is a nice and interesting film, the costumes looks quiet cheap sometimes but it's forgivable. Too bad the film has some non-historic anti-french propaganda (probably because of the influence of the British Walter Scott's works on the subject done in the 19th century), having caricatural vilains like that gives the film a bad taste.

Great film that holds up after almost 70 years

Stumbled across this on Netflix on a lazy Sunday, at almost 3.5 hours it does require a commitment, but once you get into the film it does not take much to keep watching, although the film is in Arabic, there subtitles available so non-Arabic speakers can enjoy it as well, the cinematography is fantastic, the scale and scope is massive on par with epics like The Ten Commandments and Ben Hur.The film shows the tolerance for Christians by the Arabs and the conflict and politics within the Christian camp. Saladin makes multiple offers of peace only to have them foild by the infighting within the Christian ranks.If you like historical epics this is a must see.
