The Blue Elephant

the film was very well made and the storyline was very good with a lot of twists and suspense . it's about a psychiatrist (Yehia)works in a sector where they find out if criminals who made ugly murders suffer from a Psychiatric Disease or mental disease or they are healthy to decide their judgment. the DR find out that his old friend (Sherif) has been brought there for killing his wife brutally so he tries to help him and find out what happened to him and what made him do that. and then he find out a strange thing about his friend Sheriff Yehia later tries a drug called the blue elephant which takes him to another dimension see things and hear things which very close to what happened to his friend. there is a good point in the direction of the movie the original story contained a lot of nudity the director managed to reach the point with almost no nudity and that was good

in brief this is the sort of movies that make you change your judgment on characters a lot and get confused and wonder who is right and who is wrong the movie was awesome the acting , sound effects and graphics were perfect i give the movie 8/10 really worth watching

Al-Pheel Al-Azraq (The Blue Elephant), a film based on the best-selling novel by Ahmed Mourad, is set to premiere in Egypt and several Arab countries,the upcoming Eid Al-Fitr holiday following the end of Ramadan.

Karim Abdel-Aziz, who returns to the big screen as a superstar in the film, expressed how satisfied he was with this production and said he was not surprised the Audience has shown such excitement about the film.

The film hit more than a bird with one stone, its scenario kept almost long-smart dialogs from the novel, let the characters to say and reveal their masks, the film kept all the exciting moments: A doctor returns to work in a psychiatric hospital after several years of the death of his family, throwing him to the section 8 West where there are murderers under observation, there he finds an old colleague accused of killing his wife, the doctor had a love affair with an old colleague, the sister of the accused, a doctor looking for the secret behind the crime while the plot shows us the possibility that the accused killer claim a mental illness, or the illness of the physician or the presence of a mysterious third party committed the crime across the body of the accused killer, Mixing not only between the science and what is ghostly, but the film managed to Show its characters the same degree it shows about the crime, this mixture is good and amazing because it is the most difficult choice for the writer. The film succeeded in showing most of novel's fantasies, The graphic scenes in the film is the best since graphic entered the Egyptian cinema, a global company specializing carried out the world of dreams and hallucinations, I never imagined when I read the novel to see Kareem Abdul-Aziz, to play the role of Yahya Rashid, difficult character and it was a real surprise, his role is the most difficult in my opinion because it does not depend on the apparent emotion , but convey all the time the feeling of fractures can not be healed, in his life only one and single hope, the story of an old love, Khaled El Sawy was fantastic ambiguous and double character, human being led by devil, Nelly Karim performance was quiet, simple and non-artificial. Thanks to The Blue Elephant and its talented makers. Mahmoud Abd El Shakour

Blue Elephant novel re-Egyptian novel for the cinema after nine years since the film The Yacoubian Building, a distinct return to see her novel of the most important and most beautiful novels Was introduced during the last five years at the hands of the creator Ahmad Murad I will start by talking about the scenario because Murad could formulate a novel scenario in Very tightly managed through which to be familiar with the most important and accurate details of his story did not prejudice The aim of the novel or its meaning, but was able to see him improve his idea and drafting Joomla talk In a remarkable and highly proportionality with language Senymaúah introduced pursuant creative Extremely difficult and new at the same time the Arab cinema in general. Marwan Hamed skillfully and intelligently transfer what he wrote Ahmed Murad on the silver screen and in a manner Unprecedented in terms of output Senymaúa interested Marwan careful attention personalities Graphics and gave a very impressive scenes in the safe also took all the representatives in the image More than wonderful came in the film moves between the development stages of discovery revives The fact of what could be the most beautiful and Omtana really all interestingness in the game camera And focus on the idea of ​​body language with all the characters, and that point is calculated for Marwan It's a very conscious way out to prove that he is able to portray the idea of ​​the writer in a manner more than Wonderful and there was a focus on the body language added a lot to work also added Marwan lots and lots of places Pachtaarath smart imaging especially those places Collected between salutes and structures which add atmosphere is very compatible with the nature of the film And those checks will find that even considering accessories Nelly Karim came very appropriate To the work environment as a whole Kareem Abdul-Aziz: intelligent artist you can change your skin in a blue elephant and made personal New and different from what presented before and I was able to play a role brilliantly and intelligent and there I can not forget the scenes puzzled salutes in front of himself in front of the situation and the constant focus In the language of the body all around .. trying to discover the truth all the time .. I understood Rashid greets well-presented and the performance is remarkable too Khaled El Sawy: as usual surprised and enjoyed the personal Sheriff Maher Kurdi does not fit Performance of someone else ... someone else perform Khaled Sawi film at least in magnitude for The performance of Anthony Hopkins ... Looks sharpness between the eyes at times and calm at times .. and those who Checks will find that the voice of Khaled El Sawy was changing between scenes noticeable change .. Scenes were beautiful and exotic state of cohabitation and manufactured for the personal Vgesdtha Screen astonishing performance and terrifying. Nelly Karim: embodied the role of Ms. Lubna thin beautiful manner quiet and sophisticated Very able and portray the feelings of those beloved and highlighted perfectly in the scenes at the summit Romance brings to mind the beautiful romantic time Lebleba: about three scenes but Lebleba professorship in her performance and her impressions Own and know how to use coded by personal performed. Mohamed Mamdouh: I tried too much to imagine during the reading of the plays the character as possible Sameh Zidane and after I saw the film I did not see you .. provided the most appropriate doctor vindictive Wondrously silly and made him once he overlooks the screen without speaking personal As grim picture Ahmed Murad in his novel. Darren Smith - Mohammed Shaheen - Shirin Reza Abdatm in very few scenes but you You have made them memorable sights and even printed in the viewer's mind forever. Hisham honest: the case of realizing the subject prior to the submission Hisham always music as Did before the peace and the snake Tito and the sleepless nights and Abraham White and thieves In KGL Toe and more recently in the seven commandments ... I see the Blue Elephant In tune Music is very appropriate for the work and add music atmosphere vague sense of Azad Movie scenes. Note: There is one scene I had hoped that the film will be a car accident scene And the death of Yahya wife and daughter .. This was the scene will add a lot to figure Yahya Because it is the basis of the problem and was able to cream in his narrative of the incident sweetheart Lubna to arrive Scenes within the same salutes and makes you feel, and its sense of Palme. Each greeting and appreciation for the makers of this wonderful work and I see upscale response to be considered Egyptian cinema and put back on track after a recent decline For years.

Al-Feel Al-Azraq, I've not been so attracted by an Arabic movie that much (That I actually went to see it on the big screen) in ages ! And I didn't regret it ! :D Where to start ! Great scenario, not one unnecessary line. Karim Abdel Aziz at the highest peak of his career, Khaled El Sawy with a literally LEGENDARY performance ! Soundtrack, montage, editing, effects, CGI, filming, directing...all are so professional, so PERFECT...that you'll enjoy every scene so much that you won't want it to end, because the picture is SO beautiful ! Even if nothing important is going on during the scene, and trust me, there's something important going on in every scene, the movie is very intense, very highly detailed ! Story line will keep consuming all your attention till the very end. About the ending, it won't match with every taste (biggest weak point in the movie.) That's why I gave it a 9/10. But hell, I'm so proud that this project is 100%ly Egyptian ! Restored the hope. :)

I really missed that kinda Shutter-Island feeling ! Go watch it !

i really loved the movie i have read the novel about 2 years ago and i was waiting for the movie to come up i thought i am gonna get disappointed from the movie because this type of movie never been done in Egypt and the crew is young but there was one insuring thing that Ahmed mourad whose gonna write the movie it was excellent really enjoyed the movie and the length of the movie is perfect its filled with thriller and makes you think what is gonna to happened next takes your attention you wanna listen to every word so focused in it really it gives example to producers that good script and good stories always succeed. the best movie in the last 4years in Egypt.
