Ok, so it is different cinematography, but how different seriously now? I do get it, we have to encourage foreigners to do their best and show us their vision, which usually differs from the common Hollywood productions, or in my case African vs European. But all in all, for me, it was a familiar production, one very easily to anticipate, the only struggle I had with this movie was trying to understand the characters: all they do is fight yet we suppose to somehow feel they are a team.
After you watch this you will realize that not only it was very difficult to root for them, but they did the very absolute in taking the wrong decisions throughout the entire movie. So if I can not relate to them or even sparkle some empathy, why even go with these characters? After this first set back, we have the plot itself: well clearly not original in any way, I do understand the themes explored here, but the development is weak, far stretched and annoyingly boring.
For the first Tunisian horror ever, I will grade it a 4 thanks to the effort and courage into making it, but that is it. It showed nothing new, different, it was a movie I've seen it 1000 times only longer and more frustrating. A lot of the scenes could have been cut off and if the movie would have proved to be a huge success, perhaps added in the director's cut. But they have no place here, and as the run time is close to 2h, perhaps less quantity and more quality. Also...the plot itself is weird and non sense at time, as a lot of the things presented on screen either make no other appearance or no difference later on.
Anyway sadly I can not recommend it whatsoever as it is a difficult watch, even for those that want to put an eye on a different type of cinema, simply expect nothing than a movie which will seem to last for at least 3 hours.
Cheers!
