This is a captivating movie that skillfully weaves together a compelling narrative, powerful performances, and stunning cinematography. The well-developed characters and thought-provoking storyline make it a must-watch, showcasing the talent and creativity emerging from the Saudi film industry. The movie reflects a cinematic renaissance within the film industry in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, with Saudi directors and actors emerging strongly onto the artistic and cultural scene. I hope to see more cinematic productions like this in the coming period. The number of films in the artistic scene is still limited, but the ambitious aspirations persist.

Frist of all the Cinematography is fabulous and amazing it's take you to another dimension and make your eyes stick to the screen until the end
The main ideas took a lot from taxi driver but not in a cheap way for me it's better than (taxi driver)
The vibes are very similar to (the joker 2019) and also (taxi driver) and Mohamed aldokhi did a really fine job in the leading role
I'm glad to see this film comes from Saudi Arabia make sure you watch it if you have chance i'm sure you will enjoy it and love it, at least you will never regret watching it xx.

This movie take you on a journey with man who we know nothing about to someone with face,name, and a package and we want him to win or "I wanted him to win ", a lot of ups and down , i loved the cinematography A LOTS , the plot is complete you understand why our guy went this far, l loved the foreshadowing of using the light to tell us a massage,however, there's a lot of missed opportunities and some scenes that needed more tension so the audiences can be more engaged and feel the threat he's facing , overall I loved the movie and I recommend it specially that's Ali first movie l salute him there's no scene with no purpose l can feel the attention and care through the whole movie bravo 👏
"Mandoob" offers a compelling narrative set, skillfully intertwining themes of desperation and opportunity. The film's strength lies in its portrayal of Fahad Algadaani, a mentally fragile protagonist racing against time to rescue his ailing father. The director adeptly captures the pulse of the city, creating a palpable sense of urgency. However, certain plot elements could have been explored more deeply, leaving room for a richer emotional connection with the characters, and the script is poor with no strong dialogues which left the viewer overthinking about every details which may lead to negative effect on the movie. Furthermore the ending was straight forward with no tension or buildup leaving the audience in shock of how its ended in the peak of the story!
Despite this, "Mandoob" succeeds in delivering a gripping tale that sheds light on the complexities of familial bonds in the face of adversity.

Mandoob alleil is a Saudi movie directed by Ali Al kalthami , I watched it on theater , first of all, Great directing, and great performance by the star actor Mohammed Al dokhei, from the first. Minute of this movie you'll feel like it kinda looks like taxi driver but with some changing , I like it a lot, not boring at all and it's the best Saudi movie I've seen so far , I have seen Satar and some other Saudi movies but this movie feels like an American movie from the 70s , as a big fan of American movies, mandoob alleil is the only Arabic movie that feels like a true movie with no bad messages,
A MUST SEEN.
