   Feb 12, 2021 · A drama based on the true story of Mohamedou Ould Salahi, who spent 14 years at Guantanamo Bay without being charged with a crime. The film fails to humanize Salahi and focuses on the white lawyers who fought for his release, with manipulative and showy direction.

    Is 'the Mauritanian' a good movie?

    • It is an old-fashioned drama through and through, with some impressive acting from Tahar Rahim, Jodie Foster, and Benedict Cumberbatch. But "The Mauritanian" fails to humanize the story it’s telling, never coming off as something more challenging or interesting than a superficial, manipulative accounting of true events.

    Where can I buy the Mauritanian?

    • Rent The Mauritanian on Fandango at Home, Prime Video, or buy it on Fandango at Home, Prime Video. The Mauritanian takes a frustratingly generic approach to a real-life story that might have been inspirational in other hands, but Tahar Rahim's performance elevates the uneven material.
