Shashah Review
An Egyptian comedy TV show directed by Markkas Adel, starring Fifi Abdo and Shireen Rida.
The events take place in a comedic framework while two ladies who are oppressed previously from patriarchal hegemony are collaborating to form a professional scam gang to take revenge from men to support helpless women.
The story’s idea seems new and unfamiliar in the Arab world, but not directed in a professional way, there are many good scenarios, but they didn’t show us many ways and plots to manipulate men’s subconscious minds, as the script is always repeats. In short, all the elements that form the work aren’t structured very well, they seem fragmented, and not harmonizing with each other, hence, it is better to consider the comedic element to be the basic element, then we can overlook the gaps and misstructure of such work.
A mediocre Ramadan work that looks over feminist, could be better, recommended if you like modern Egyptian comedy.
