85 Genayat is quite a curious piece from '93, blending drama with a heavy dose of tension. It dives into the complex relationship between Colonel Hazem and Rawia, a glamorous figure caught in a bleak existence. Their chemistry is palpable, yet there's a constant undercurrent of danger, especially as they both find themselves entangled in a drug bust. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing the emotional weight of their situations to settle in. The prison setting adds a gritty realism, contrasting sharply with Rawia's opulent life outside. Performances are commendable, albeit a bit melodramatic at times. Overall, it’s the intertwining of personal and societal struggles that really gives this film its unique edge.
