Audience Member Literally one of the worst movies the maker is pure racist he purposely showed the girl wearing cheap clothes and just made her wear scarf. Like really just because u want put someone down so much u force u will mock someone religion like this. Wearing deep neck showing her boobs wearing short dress then why the hell is she wearing scarf. If you want ti profit of someone's culture atleast don't mock them. Racist pig Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Late R A lovely little movie about two very genuine-feeling characters that fall in love despite being on seemingly opposing sides. Starr puts in a nice performance, but it's Dina Shihabi who really steals the show with her fantastic portrayal of an unconventional damsel-in-distress. Both Starr and Shihabi make it very easy to feel a connection to their characters and to become invested in their futures as they attempt to solve their respective problems that threaten to tear them apart. 'Amira & Sam' definitely isn't flashy with a big Hollywood feel and it really is the characters themselves that sell the film, a huge credit to the script writer. This is one for all the romantics out there. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/18/17 Full Review Audience Member A deliberate romance drama!!! It looks good, but not very enjoyable. I would have liked if it was focused only on Sam about a soldier's struggle since his return from the war like the 2009 film 'The Messenger' perhaps. The Amira's character seems deliberately put in, especially in the present western world scenario to tell what's wrong with them. So sorry, this did not click for me. But I like some parts, like how the character Amira transformed compared to the beginning and ending. Martin Starr was at his best and that's why its watchable. Some people might like the film for its simpleness, but the screenplay should have been improved. They covered many topics like wall street, unemployed ex soldier, immigrant et cetera in 90 minutes, but when it comes to the romance part, the reality was missing. So like I said, intentionally the lead two characters put together to bring attention, rather to tell a neat romantic tale. It it like 'Learning to Drive' kind of film. That aimed to reveal the cultural clash between two and how it stands as an obstacle between their feeling to each other. This is not for everybody, even the middle eastern audience might be annoyed about how Amira was portrayed in a few scenes. But those are the parts I liked the most from it. Just once watchable. 4/10 Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Very nice enjoyable film. Well done. I thought the chemistry between Sam and Amira was real and alive. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member The movie was alright. The female character had me confused-Her head was always covered, but her chest and legs were exposed?...Umm, okay. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Amira & Sam are both perfect and beautifully flawed characters.
