Fish & Cat (2013)
9/10
brilliant idea, clever implementation, thoughtful pace for execution.

Warning: Spoilers
If you like Kubrick's shining, or The Others, or the legendary Primer. you will not forget this movie. This movie requires a patient audience, puts together the piece of the puzzle of time to get to the whole scope of the story but its amazing that they implement this whole story in one shot and it gives you a feeling of bad dream or a loop in the story. much like the characters who got cough in the loop of time forever, maybe until stopping the next crime through a tape recorder of some sort. Its a brilliant bloody movie without showing so much of the action but you can later assign each death scene ONE by ONE! and enjoy the story one more time by reciting the events.

The political layer of the movie was significant as well, students waiting to get out of country, Mahmoud whose numbers do no add up recently and the journalists who has become a prophet but yet its too hard to follow his leads.
