		And the film was a drama mind you, but one which didn't lose touch with the basic humanity of its characters, even its villains.
		The village thug, who, hearing of Faten Hamama's arrival after her long absence from the village came at once to collect his prize, in his ignorant brutishness makes the viewers laugh at him as well.

	Critic
		The critics have really been sharpening their claws on Wagh Al-Qamar, with one critic likening the extensive use of soft focus in scenes where Faten Hamama appears to the kind of fog that causes car crashes.
		Despite the validity of this critique, Hamama herself shines in her role as the iron lady with the frayed nerves, constantly being put in tough situations and surviving.
		Overall, Wagh Al-Qamar was a good effort, and although it wasn't an edge of your seat kind of show like Awan Al-Ward is, the storyline and the mere presence of such veteran as Hamama and Ramzy made it worth watching every night.
