Self-flagellation on Pause!
Ahmed Mourad’s The Blue Elephant novel has been a hit in Egypt and Arab world with a huge amount of controversy among readers from all levels of knowledge, culture and interest. Swinging between the spread success and all the criticism it faced due to the massive attraction of many readers, It managed to be always on headlines between people and of course at every book store and now it made it through to the big screen.Marwan Hamed, one of Egypt finest directors made good choices of the actors and the settings of the scenes. The shooting seemed nice and smooth in most scenes, a bit fair and out of balance in few but mainly it went mostly good.
All actors Kareem, Nelly and the others were mostly on form giving their good performance except of Khaled El Sawy whose performance was exceptional.
The characters on screen appeared close to the author description in shape and behavior. The stylist must have studied and understood the characters well enough to apply that with such a success on their looks.
Until then the movie was going to be just Good, But it needed a sparkle to make it a Great movie according to the standards of Egyptian and Arab cinema production and driving it a step forward to the International standards.
The sparkle came from VFX team with the DOP who both did a great job reflecting Mourad’s toughest scenes of the novel into a visual reality with professional touches by Hamed.
Some side notes about the dialogue, shooting and supporting characters cannot ruin the good work has been done by all the crew.
I have always had a big objection about the story ending, but for now I may leave that to myself and enjoy watching an Egyptian cinema production with such professionalism and high standards.
it’s not perfect – like anything will never be – yet it’s a big step forward that we should applaud and keep our Self-flagellation on Pause!
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.
