I have read many books and articles from both the Israeli and Arab Sides, but I have never seen a movie in my life with such an extraordinary historical mistakes. In fact they are not just mistakes, they are totally misleading with wrong Information. This movie is a piece of sh%% . I think the movie editor and director were illiterate or drunk! The movie was unprofessional with an extremely poor production . I honestly kept laughing on how ignorant the director was "un-educated" The Movie focused on insignificant details and left the Important things. Wrong costumes , wrong flags , wrong scenes , does any student in any university in the world wears a hate :):):) !!!. I kept laughing on how the director was unprofessional . It is rubbish and a waste of time. The Movie proved only one thing in my mind " Of how big is the miscommunication and misunderstanding between the west and the East specifically the middle east" .

If you believe in peace, then you'll appreciate this movie. While I'm certain it does contain some inaccuracies, Sadat tells a story of a man who longs for peace amongst a world of mistrust and hatred. However, he never loses sight of a his strong sense of faith toward the betterment of Egypt.If you are a history teacher who wants to show a great example of a Muslim man who is a hero to peace, then I would recommend showing this movie to your classes. This is a story of inspiration, and I am hopeful the world will have more men with the courage that Anwar Sadat had. He paid the ultimate price, but his example will live on.

In this film, the names are wrong, the historical facts are wrong, the dates are wrong, the military uniforms are wrong, the medals are wrong, the costumes are wrong, the flags are wrong, the maps are wrong, the props are wrong, the cars are wrong, the locations are wrong... the casting is very poor, with a collection of accents that can only be described as a mockery... this film is simply a disaster... It is an insult to anyone who knows the meaning of the word HISTORY.If this film proves anything, it surely proves that no research was ever made. For a dramatized history movie, for TV or big screen, the writer and the director should do a bit of homework before they make fools of themselves and of the historical personalities they are presenting.Maged Farag - Modern Egyptian History scholar

This TV movie was aired in two parts and I just saw them both. The first half is pretty schlocky, with bad accents running rampant and some bad casting. But the second half, although having that cheapo TV movie feel, isn't half bad. Louis Gossett Jr. as Sadat isn't as bad as it sounds, folks. Aside from the horrible accent, he does at least try and capture the spirit of the man. That extra who was cast as Golda Meir, she looked just like Golda Meir. That was really the most remarkable thing.
