El castillo de arena

For most people, the movie is slow and boring and you find the storyline everything, everywhere all at once.

But once you get the grasp of the story you are set for a good, deep and dark movie. The english dubbed version doesnt sound as good as the arabic, So I watched in Arabic with subtitle and it sounded way better.

All four lead actors are phenomenol. While the story leads you to the concept of hallucination from dehydration and injuries, the reality is far from that. The film is well directed and the end solves all the puzzle.

However it is not a thriller but a pure psychological thriller.

Dont compare the movie with anything and you will love it.

Through the decades of cinema, there are movies that you enjoy most, movies that you love most, movies that you remember most, movies that you refer most but this one is different. To understand and to appreciate this movie you need to have guts. You need to have passions. You need to have knowledge about what it talks about. It's a movies that blends with the art makers want to deliver to you! Before starting to watch this movie remember that you don't have to expect anything from this movie and I want to warn all of you that don't expect that this movie is a thriller one! It's a movie that can bend your mind!

The movie packed uncommonly. It's not intended for commoners. It need special knowledge and composure to understand the message of the overall story.

It's like spotting mirage in the middle of dessert. Full of mystery, surreal and tragically heartbreaking in the end. Very unusual way to send the message but I completely understand after final watching the movie.

Very nice movie and touching.

The storyline is running slow. But, don't worry. It meant to be. At first, I feel worry and dread while guessing what was happening back then, why it's happened like that, when it happened.

This is how you can find your empathy what was happening in the real world.

Sand Castle is not just a movie; it's a mirror to the chaos of our times. It boldly explores the futility of power games and reminds us that nature is the ultimate force. This is not a film that's going to spoon-feed you answers-it demands you to think, to reflect, and to bring your own life experiences into its narrative.

The cast is phenomenal, the writing gutsy, and the cinematic experience unforgettable. If you're expecting mindless entertainment, look elsewhere. But if you value a movie that challenges your perspective and lingers in your thoughts, Sand Castle is a must-watch. For those leaving shallow reviews-perhaps start by reactivating your brain.

It's very clear from the current rating and reviews on here that a LOT of people didn't get this movie. It certainly doesn't spoon feed anything to the audience. If you're looking for something that makes perfect sense and leaves you with zero questions, this is not the film for you.

Despite a small cast and a pretty minimal plot, the actors did a beautiful job conveying their emotions throughout. Hope, despair, determination, love for each other.

The ending brought me to tears, and while I can see why this movie may not have mass appeal, I am baffled that someone could watch this and not feel even slightly moved.
