Review of Theeb

Theeb (2014)
8/10
Moving and atmospheric
7 November 2018
I caught this film by accident on late night television. In the past, I've not been very impressed by most films coming out of the Middle Eastern countries but Theeb rapidly won me over. The acting was excellent & felt authentic and the cinematography makes good use of the dramatic natural locations. At times it feels a bit like Lawrence of Arabia told from the Bedouin or child's POV.

It moves a bit more slowly than most Hollywood films do, but it is better for it. I could write a lot more on this film but won't for the sake of brevity.
