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.

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.

This movie its a perfect movie to explain the Braun of One kid. I not gonna spoiler the movie, but its a movie to see on all world. But u need to watch from start to end. Nothing make sense, but Im the end... All pieces completo the puzzle. One masterpiece.

But for that u need to watch and watch with yes of detective. Nothing its what u think its is, and its very actual what it retraited on this movie. The really problem its to make u Stay until the end whiout Skip the movie. But u need to watch all movie. U in the end gonna understant all and u gonna cry with all the people on tour Room. Not a movie too everyone, but everyone needs to watch it.

I watched this because it was interesting to see how wildly deviant the reviews were and so I needed to see exactly what it was people loved or loathed about it.

The cinematography is very good, and there's not a lot of script to this but that's the point, it's art and supposed to be through the eyes of the daughter. It's well worth persevering to the end as imagination becomes fact.

Hopefully this will be thought provoking for all of you lucky enough to be able to watch this in comfort, not everyone is so blessed.

The closing text of the movie explains everything If you've not understood it by the time you get to that point.

The poor reviews either don't get it or refuse to believe the suffering of millions, shame on you.

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.
