"The Mauritanian" is a Drama - Thriller movie in which we watch a man named Mohamedou Ould Slahi trying to convince the U. S. Government that is innocent. He was detained and imprisoned without any charge and now with the help of some lawyers he will fight for his freedom.
I liked this movie very much because it was based on true events, it had a nice and very interesting plot, and some outstanding interpretations. The direction which was made by Kevin Macdonald was simply amazing and he presented very well and very careful this sensitive case. He also succeeded on presenting his main characters very well without confusing the audience with all the dates and the locations. The interpretation of Tahar Rahim who played as Mohamedou Ould Slahi was simply outstanding and he made the difference. Some other interpretations that have to be mentioned were Jodie Foster's who played as Nancy Hollander, Shailene Woodley's who played as Teri Duncan and Benedict Cumberbatch's who played as Stuart Couch. Finally, I have to say that "The Mauritanian" is an interesting, in tense drama movie which I highly recommend everyone to watch it because I am sure you will learn a lot from it and you will also understand even more.
