Fantastic! This is the first review of CAPTAIN ABU RAED. How wonderful.

And to add to the good news, I can’t resist but post here that Nadim Sawalha won Best Actor award at the Dubai Fest for his amazing performance as Abu Raed.

The magical journey continues….

What a magnificent review. I was privileged enough to be on set a few times during the filming of Captain Abu Raed, and I am intensely impatient to watch the final product. Your review has me ready to do absolutely anything to watch this movie – I have no idea how I’m expected to wait until Feb 2008, when it will be released in Amman!

Cabtin Abu Raed is a nice film by a nice filmmaker. I wish Amin Matralqa all the best and I have no doubt he has the energy to develop into a great Jordanian filmmaker. Cabtin Abu Raed is a step in the right direction for Jordanian cinema.
