If you have 86 minutes to dedicate on something, rather let it not be this movie..

Nice cinematography, simple script and huge hidden feelings. Love The vintage of everything in Luxor . Like that chemistry between Hannah and Sultan and let's talk about dancing scene absolutely reversing how much this girl suffering and liked to be itself. Great film to be watched.

I was in Luxor like 15 years ago. It's was a beautiful city. I also stayed at the Winter Palace, a beautiful hotel. What I want to know is, how can a surgeon staying in an expensive hotel dress like a hippy and look like she is dying? The skinny woman looks emancipated, worn out and never smiles..she looks bored about everything..weird movie.

Cairo Time way better than this one scenery is the only reason I stuck to it.

I agree that this film is of a woman's sensibility, perhaps of lsis herself. The symbolism was obvious to me, the dream about the children, the angst of aging, the search for meaning. How familiar it all felt. The pat formula would have been for her to find meaning in romantic love but somehow you feel she won't. The ever-restless searching mind forbids it and ultimately refuses to swallow the sun. Her acting was so naturalistic, l came to know her on the cosmic plane. A solitary soul but aren't we all. I also feel the sacred sites weighing down on me with their thousands of years of worship. I now feel that l have been there and walked like an Egyptian. It wasn't exactly Death on the Nile but there's no dignity in middle-aged love. The sight of the stars makes us dream.

Tried hard to understand what this was about but gave up after an hour. Perhaps I should have stuck it out until the end but gave up.

I am always excited to see a film set in Luxor, and there were some beautiful shots and nice moments. I have to say, I agree with most of the reviews on here. This is a film where nothing happens. I've been watching a lot of Egyptian cinema, and this film is very un-Egyptian in that there is no passion, no intensity, no chemistry, no sizzle. I know this is the way the director wanted it to be. But for me it was disappointing. To say it is understated is- an understatement. We want to know the story between the lovers, what happened - we are never told it. Did they just give up on their love? When they meet again, where is the passion? Where is the feeling? Andrea Riseborough is playing the role of someone badly traumatised, and she plays it well. But Karim Saleh just seems smooth and American, I don't see the Egyptian character in him at all... not my experience of Egypt. A couple of things that really annoyed me: we are told, its pronounced Abide-os. NO! Its A-bid-os. How could they do that? And they neglect to mention its the place of Osiris. We don't hear the old lady's reading, which makes it seem as though traditional healers (of which there are many) are a waste of time. Not very respectful... I love all things Egyptian, but this is not it. These people seem cold, aloof, English and restrained. I found it quite frustrating.

Okay, I'm joking. But seriously, the lead actress here -- at least in this film -- appears to be a zombie. I read that she is a fairly respected actress, but based solely on this film, that's hard to believe. Here she definitely needs a transfusion. In fact, the whole film...how do you go to a country like Egypt, including locales as exotic as Luxor, and make a film this incredibly boring. Perhaps the most boring film I've ever watched. In fact...why did I sit through this film for a whole 85 minutes? Well, that's simple actually. To see a movie filmed in places like Luxor. That's the one thing this film has going for it -- seeing some of the places I've only dreamed of going to. I see under trivia that the film was shot in just 18 days. I can believe that. The plot seems minimal to me, the dialog is minimal, as well. Sometimes as I watched the film I wondered if they had an actual script or mostly just winged it. To be frank, a documentary about Egypt would have more of a plot.
