The film is just like the first part. The same 3 disconnected stories that are supposed to tie up at the end with the same cliches and historical references.
First we begin with the story, written in the poorest way possible. The film cuts between the 3 stories way too quickly, you never get invested in any of them, you do not connect with the characters or feel anything towards them, you always end up checking your phone.
Secondly, the acting. Every actor / actress in the film is over acting (and that's the least to say about it) even big and talented names like Hend Sabry. Other performances are just terrible. The only descent performances are Mohamed Saad's just like the first part and Mohamed Ramadan's.
Thirdly, to be honest the production set is amazing. The scenes in Cairo's Mamluk and Ancient Egypt are amazing. But this shows an important thing, if the film only relies on big names with minimum acting skills, big production sets without a decent plot, the result will always be mediocre at best.
I really hope we start shifting from just having big names and cool action sequences to only make a film.
