Ola cherche sa voie

I have to admit that I couldn't wait to leave a review even after only starting the first episode. I wasn't sure I wanted to watch something Arabic so I checked out the trailer and was immediately hooked! Into the first episode my liking for the show was confirmed! I love finding out that we are all the same with the same problems.

Netflix has productions going on all over the world. Some are bad some are mediocre and some are excellent! This for sure is one of the latter!

I got attached to the main protagonist right away because her circumstances are so familiar and you get immersed in her story!

Can't wit to continue and I'll probably will bing watch this gem!

BTW I love watching with the original language, I find I get used to it very quickly and it makes watching the show much more authentic!

I loved everything about the first season , and when I found out that it was getting another season I was over the moon , usually after so long I was scared that I won't be good but the show did not disappoint.it's beautifully written , and following ola on her path and to see her get back her voice and how she dealt with everything is heartwarming,

Every little detail stood up from each character's flaws , to style and even the soundtracks .

Ola's sense of humor never disappoints, her sarcastic comments makes everything so much better

I hope that we get to see another season , And pay more attention to zeina and Nessrine's stories too.

Love this series. I love discovering on Netflix cinema and series from all over the world. Like people were able to do in the past, on the radio, finding stations from other countries. Finding Ola is very well produced, very well acted and really hilariously funny at times. Hind Sabri, most of all is excellent. The woman knows how to act: drama, comedy, she has it all in her. Hello, Hollywood...?

If a series doesn't catch my attention in the first episode, I won't continue. I binged watch the whole series in less than a day.

I enjoyed the storyline, so very much. I'm all about women empowerment, and I'm sure it'll give many women the courage to live their lives for themselves. Too many times, we fall into the trap of pleasing society.

Thanks to all who took the time to create this really outstanding series. Let's not forget the phenomenal acting 👏 bravo.

Last but not least, please...don't take too long to start filming season 2. I'll be waiting patiently.

This series shows a side of Egyptian life which may or may not exist. If it does exist, it can only be relevant to, and enjoyed by the minority of the population with money, who are extremely wealthy. However, Egyptian cinema has always set itself up as the Hollywood of the Arab world, never real, always looking to appear westernized and separated from the reality in the country. While this may work for some of the countries in the Middle East e.g Lebanon, Israel, it does not work for all, especially those in which a western lifestyle does not match the "lived" reality in the country.

It is the comedic timing and acting skills of the lead actress, Hind Sabri, that carries the show. The series plays a lot like a weekly American Sitcom that is focused around modern family dynamics. While this series is funny at the start, they often have a finite lifetime so would be very unsure if a second season for this series would work.
