Khamis invades Cairo (1990)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

Khamis arrives from his hometown to work in Cairo, but his millionaire brother abandons him. Khamis is forced to work as a maid at the house of his old friend, dancer Najia, who becomes a movie star. At her home he meets several businessmen and discovers that everyone is engaged in illegal work and is surprised to find that his brother is following the same path.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
