Jessica Alba may only play a cameo role in this next edition of Mother’s Dubai Presents…for Dubai Tourism but this 1.30-minute film starring Zac Efron and Zac Efron (yes, twice) is a winner. Brilliant writing and wonderful direction by Craig Gillespie combine with Efron’s not trifling flair for acting to make a scorchingly funny addition to the buddy movie genre, with some of Dubai’s best attractions supporting the plot.
This is the third episode in Mother’s six-part series. The best yet? Watch and see:
