A couple of observations...

Didn't the ballet school teacher say that the school had been there for 25 years? That's just ridiculous. Dubai was just sand 25 years ago, and there would have been no students until at least 10 years ago.

At the end, Natalie decided to get a job at the ballet school. Did she really want to bump into Guy there as he dropped off his daughter?

And perhaps worst of all - everyone in Dubai knows that getting pregnant out of wedlock can land you in prison but no-one mentions it in the film. No way would she hang around for that.

Just an FYI. The UAE has been around 40+ years. I'm 32 years old at the time of the writing. The school i attended growing up still exists so the idea that an old school ballet school could exist for 25 years is plausible.

Sorry to disappoint, I attended that very same ballet centre around 16 years ago. It wasn't just sand.
