Good job.

Wow!!!!! What an amazing movie!!! I didn't see that coming!!

This movie is absolutely one of the best movies in this year, it deserves an Oscar (Academy Award for Best International Feature Film).

It won the Special Jury Prize in Los Angeles (Hollywood).

Yusif movie came with a new way since arabic movies usually can't afford a Hollywood style, but this time the director Kazim Fayad burned the ground by the fire of his dreams and the work he and his teammates did.

We discover that it is a psychological film in the style of reality cinema, where it deals with the story of a young man named Youssef, who lives in a popular neighborhood and suffers from a psychological disorder that makes him unable to distinguish between his reality and his dreams.

The movie is beautiful. The plot is twisted and quite complex and it keeps you attracted to think what is going to happen next. The most notable part is that it doesn't have the "Good Hero vs bad guys" we are used to in Hollywood movies. The bad guys turn to be good guys, and the good guys turn to bad guys throughout the movie. This exactly describes the reality of life. You can't always be a good guy who continuously works to spread good and fight evil. Evil is built in and rooted in us, and life itself forces you to make bad decisions. In addition, unlike a lot of the movies also, it does not seek to attract viewers by having a womanizer-based hero who attracts all ladies with his charm. There is very weak emphasis on any sexual element in the movie anyway.

And most importantly for me, the thing that connected me the most to the movie is that it is reflective of the life we all see, not some rich hero cruising the city in his fancy Mercedes or sipping coffee in his company and his main goal is to charm his lover in the movie.

The hero Yusif, and his friends are people who look like me and could have been me, or my friend, and the places they live in are places that we the unheard of peasants of the suburbs live.

It's fictitiously real.

The ending though I did not like. The hero decided to repent and see the ways of good in the end, as to be expected. I had hoped of a more dramatic ending like someone dies or something really bad happens, or the hero turning out to be a lost cause. For something to leave me angry and frustrated and depressed and in a state of sadness, because you know, good endings rarely happen in life.
