Title: Deplorable sentimental pap.
Review: A total waste of the talents of Patricia Clarkson and the others involved in this project. As a travelogue, it makes me want to visit Cairo - perhaps it was financed by the Egyptian government? I have been to Cairo, and it is nothing like this - this is the sugar-coated version, a little like the image of Tokyo one gets from Lost in Translation. Cairo is teeming with homeless, poverty-stricken people, as is all of Egypt. But all we see here are genteel sophisticates. The plot is predictable and emotionally detached - we never really care about these characters, only their clothes and their luggage seems to matter to the director. This is trash of the first order. Don't believe the hype. It's not worth $18.99.
