Editor’s note: A brief editor’s note on The Mauritanian (2021): It leans into its Drama, Thriller roots without feeling derivative. Under Kevin Macdonald’s direction, the film keeps a steady rhythm and a clear sense of place. Tahar Rahim, Jodie Foster, Benedict Cumberbatch anchor the film with grounded, unshowy work. Clocking in at 2h 9m, the pacing is controlled, with room to breathe. A respectable mid-tier entry with a couple of memorable beats. If the premise speaks to you, this one’s easy to recommend.
