About This Movie

The Kidnappers, directed by Hossam El Dine Mostafa, is a 1972 Egyptian action film that dives into themes of trust and betrayal. Set against the backdrop of a workshop, it follows Jalal Abu Al-Majd's journey as he attempts to modernize his business in Germany, only to leave it in the hands of his older brother, Sherif. The pacing is tight, with moments of tension that keep you engaged. The performances bring a certain authenticity to the characters, especially the dynamic between Sherif and the con artist, Hassanein, played with an intriguing flair. Practical effects are used, but it's the atmosphere of impending doom and deception that truly sets it apart from typical action fare.

Interesting take on brotherly trust. · Explores themes of betrayal effectively. · Engaging performances elevate the plot.
