We've seen many movies from our Egyptian cinema that the filmmakers adapted from Hollywood movies. They showcased their creativity and offered unique interpretations of these familiar narratives.

It's all about revenge and disloyalty; the Count of Monte Cristo is a popular movie based on a novel of the same name that inspired Anwar Wagdy's Amir El Entqam. Also, the Ramadan 2023 show "Rasheed" was adapted from the same film.

Bill Murray blessed us with Groundhog Day in 1993, and Ahmed Helmy came in 2009 with one of his greatest movies adapted from the film. 1000 Mabrook is undoubtedly a masterpiece!

The creators made a sarcastic comment about how this movie wasn't adapted from Night at the Museum in the opening credits, but, in fact, it is!

Originally adapted from Al Pacino's Scent of a Woman, Amir El Zalam is a movie where Adel Emam's character is blind and somehow gets to recognise everything happening around him using his other senses.
Gawaza Meery – This Means War

Nothing will remind you of a Hollywood movie like Gawaza Meery's adaptation of the famous This Means War in every aspect. However, as we know, it's highly Egyptianised!
