Review: The Mauritanian (2021)

Written By Adam Simcox

Directed by Kevin Macdonald; screenplay by M.B. Trave, Rory Haines and Sohrab Noshirvani; starring Jodie Foster, Tahar Rahim and Benedict Cumberbatch.

A solid and compelling film with a strong performance by Tahar Rahim, who just needs to be in more stuff.
Suffers a little from being pretty formulaic and isn't the most thrilling watch but an important subject matter handled fairly respectfully.
