Mohamed Saad


Mohamed Saad is an Egyptian film actor.

Career

Saad studied at the Higher Institute of Theatrical Arts in Egypt, then he started his career in theater in late 1980s. After several supporting roles, Saad took the lead in El-Limby. Playing the film's "illiterate, inefficient, slow, stoned and drunk" hero, Saad "invests his first leading role with a hyperactive physical energy especially evident in dance sequences." The comedy became one of the highest-grossing films in Egyptian cinema.
Between 2003 and 2005, Saad played similar characters in three further films including one of his most successful movies Ely Baly Balak.
In 2006, Saad starred in Katkout, in which he played a hopeless Upper Egyptian who stumbles into a career as a boxer and crimefighter. Cairo online magazine Yallabina criticized the film for relying on Saad's physical comedy at the expense of story and script.
