Malak (2012)

Harsh reality

[7/10 · 10 November 2023]

The main character is well written . I liked her realistic decision . Her improvement with the movie . Of course the acting was fine .

The director had a special style in some shots wich i appreciate it very much . He can make us feel the hard reality . That because of the places that he choose . The character in the whole environment .

The characters has some north moroccan accent that was bad and fake except for the main character .

A love story in the middle of the movie . Didn't get much build so I found it hard to accept .

The end wasn't enough . It feels like it ended at any point of the movie.

Myopia (I) (2020)

A sensitive movie.

[7/10 · 10 November 2023]

The movie shows a very important cause . At the end of it you fell like u want to change something or help those people at the mountains .

All that because of the building of the main character . The main character is written and acted very well .

I love how the show a different sides of the society (police, journalism...) and how they treat and act with those mountain people .

Unfortunately technically the movie has some problem . Personally I dont like the type of directing like a documentary like this movie . A slow rythme and close shooting ...

The music is so bad and absolutely not in the right place .

Zanka Contact (2020)

A love letter to the music .

[6/10 · 28 October 2023]

The movie gives a lot of Love and appreciation to music . The way they talk about it . The music culture in the movie and the big role that the music has in the movie scenes .

The story is fun but I find it weak a little bit expected . The flashback made me so confused . They were not in the right moment .

There was to much bad language in the movie . I understand that is a street movie but sometimes it was over .

The dialogue is one of the best things in the movie specially the character of " said bay " i love him talking .

The performance of the main character disturb me a little bit because of his heavy accent . But the female main character she's impressive .

Razzia (2017)

Nice try .

[6/10 · 26 October 2023]

The movie use a realistic Directing style . You feel like your watching a documentary .

The movie discussed some topic like the freedom of women in a cheap way . The movie filmed islam ( religion ) in a superficial way and make it look bad with no reason that improve the story of the movie .

There is so many character and their stories . The best one of them is the one in the beginning in the countryside .

The worst one is the story of inass . Horrible acting from the actress and all her entourage . Weak dialogue . Sticking the agenda inside the story without any point .

The end is weak there is no use of the big number of the character . We see that is useless to use all that number.

Catharsys or The Afina Tales of the Lost World (2018)

Artistic work .

[6/10 · 21 October 2023]

Let's start with the bright things .

The cinematography, the shots, the vision, the directing en general i find it perfect it and artistic.

The dialogue and the character of the chairman are writing verry well .

The music play a big part in the movie . It add an extra beauty to the scene .

As I personally understand from the movie is a parallel universe . Here we can see the art of symbolism . How the movie discuss our univers problem in a symbolic way.

I didn't like the main actor performance specially the heavy accent .

To much confusing .

The romance story is empty .

In the middle and in the end we have to much character to much stories and that make me confused and bored .

The Peanut Butter Falcon (2019)

Lite touching movie !

[9/10 · 28 June 2022]

The peanut butter falcon movie is a movie about zack who has down syndrome . And tyler a Fisher who has a lot of troubles. They meet and they started their journey.

First brilliant thing in the movie it's the acting from all the cast . Was perfect and realistic .

The story was simple and lovely . A dramatic jorney with good comedie in the perfect times .

I love the relationship between zack and tyler and how it developed between them.

The movie bring the light about the down syndrome people and how theirs life is, their dream , their passion.

And the most think I liked about the movie it's the message that I get . You need to trait them like normal dont discount from their value . They become better they learn stuff they feel that their strong and capable.

And so is the normal people don't discount them . Make him feel value to evolve.

Perfect Strangers (2022)

Good job!!!

[8/10 · 4 February 2022]

Perfect stranger is an the first arabic movie from netflix production (I think). And it's arabic version from the original movie (that I doesn't see ).

The story about groupe of friend who taking a diner and enjoying with their time. And they decide to put their phones In the table. And get clear with each other.

I liked many things in the movie. The directing was soo good the movie was in tiny locked place. The director mades me feel nervous and i was enjoying with them like that a set with them . He transfer me all the feelings in this table. And the dialogue was good the movie was counting in him to keep us enjoying . And I enjoy except some times I feel bored. Also the acting it's good all the cast specially mona zaki. And the best thing in the movie it's his message how that everyone has his secrets and the phone share it with him . The phone being mane part of our lives and how dangerous he is.

I Didn't like something's in the movie like how that everyone of the characters had their problems in the same night in the same time it's Little bit much. I didn't like the homosexual part because we don't expect that in our arabic community and we never gonna to except it. And I felt bored somethimes.

But the movie was awesome and his message it's valuable.

Hellbound (2021– )

Better than squid game

[8/10 · 4 January 2022]

The show has a progressive Rhythm , the first and the second episodes are little bit boring , but after that we gonna take a trip of mystery and thriller.

The directing was good specially action scenes , Acting was good to , and i like how that any character can't die there is no hero, and to many shocking moments . And the ending wasn't expected.

The show has a some mistakes,sgi and visual effect was bad, but still a good k show .

The building of the movie world was awesome whole movie introduced the world to us , and he prepared us for the upcoming parts . The cast was full of stars and the get well . The movie it's little bit boring if you dont appreciate the cinematic stuff. Like I said its not for everyone.

But the crazy awesome terrific thing it's the directing and the cinematography , denis villeneuve killing it.

Amc destroy the show

[8/10 · 16 October 2021]

The show have one of the greatest beginning of the TV 6 ep of drama, surviving,action and thriller After that the show was to long to much boring , I like how that any character can die anytime but they are not building the character well you cant love them except the leading character .

And the show have the best villains, like the saison 7 the only good thing at the season was negan .

And the best saison for me was 9 great villain great drama great action. But in the saison 10,11 the level dropped again.

[7/10 · 16 October 2021]

I like that they care about the details of games they are so specific And the cast was good, but the screenplay need some work and also the villain he was so cringe.

Also the end was normal and i was expecting something better.
