The Blue Elephant (2014)

Review by oazab

The Blue Elephant

7/10

achievement in Egyptian standards but not on the others

first of all , there has been rumors that the movie has been copied from the tattooist , yes but not all of it ... this the best Egyptian film in the last decade ....but there are many flaws ...the visuals has also flaws ....this is the best performance ever done by Kareem abdelaziz ...Khaled elsawy was ordinary as well as Nelly Kareem ...the first act was slowly paced and wasn't even necessary , the second act was somehow good ..the third act is unbelievable and stunning ....the story has some of the Egyptian melodrama in the first act .. the movie is not complex as people may assume ..even the third act wasn't that much complex ...this movie needs support but also need criticism in order to reach for more improvement ...the movie is not in the Oscar level so it didn't deserve an Oscar nomination for best foreign film ...by the end we need to celebrate this film for its amazing story telling , visual effects , cinematography and directing which we have not seen in decades.
