Review of Free Trip to Egypt (2019) by John Defore for The Hollywood Reporter — 30 May 2019
To a person, Tarek's beneficiaries come home feeling changed by the experience. Unfortunately, he and Serban aren't so gauche as to ask if they've reevaluated any political stances as a result; the film is content with the unspoken assumption that this expanded awareness of shared humanity will make the world better.
If only someone had the budget to send tens of millions of other frightened Westerners on similar trips.
