Thieves in KG2

About This Movie

Thieves in KG2, released in 2001, is an intriguing mix of comedy and romance, set against the backdrop of the historic Kaitby Fortress in Alexandria. The film follows two thieves, Hassan and Sebaey, who get embroiled in an unexpected narrative twist when Sebaey is caught by the police. Instead of the typical heist film, it veers into a more character-driven plot as Hassan promises to look after Sebaey's daughter, Nesma. The pacing is a bit uneven, with comedic moments that sometimes feel out of sync with the romantic undertones. The performances, particularly in the dynamic between Hassan and Miss Reem, add layers to the story, making it stand out. The practical effects are modest but fitting for the film’s lighthearted nature.
