Right off the bat, Mosallam establishes that this is going to be a formulaic but earnest rom-com with a unique energy that comes from the characters&#8217; cultural backgrounds. A prologue finds Mo getting dumped by a closeted boyfriend that he adores (Hassan, played by\u00a0Patrick Sabongui). Hassan\u00a0has decided to marry a woman to appease his religiously and <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social<\/a>ly conservative family. The cognitive dissonance of the hero&#8217;s identity is a source of observant humor that the movie will return to as the rest of the story unfolds. But note that the movie has sympathy for Hassan, too\u2014Mo is an openly\u00a0gay Muslim with\u00a0a supportive and accepting family, a luxury that he takes for granted.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<section>\n<section>\n<p>Jumping ahead one year, we find Mo still wounded in the aftermath. At a birthday\u00a0party for his\u00a0non-observant Muslim best friend Sam (Amin El Gamal), Mo meets a handsome white actor named Kal (Michael Cassidy)\u00a0and spends the night walking around the city with him, in a <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> of relaxed dialogue scenes that might&#8217;ve treated Richard Linklater&#8217;s &#8220;Before&#8221; trilogy as partial inspiration. Kal explains that his name comes from\u00a0Superman&#8217;s original Krypton name, Kal-El, a tidbit that thrills Mo because he&#8217;s a huge Superman fan. There&#8217;s a bit of subtext here that&#8217;s more effective for not being spotlit and turned into text:\u00a0Superman is itself a tale of immigrant\u00a0assimilation into the mainstream of\u00a0American life, about an exceptional individual who must keep his specialness under wraps in order to live a &#8220;normal&#8221;\u00a0life.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Mosallam has a good feel for the rhythms of conversations that are filled with expository dialogue and monologues\u2014a tricky balance, not easy to pull off\u2014and the performers are appealing and don&#8217;t overdo things. Sleiman doesn&#8217;t make the mistake of playing his character as a bland &#8220;Everyman&#8221; scrubbed clean of eccentricity. The character can be neurotic and a bit manic at times, and when emotions flare, the hero&#8217;s delivery has hints of Nicolas Cage kookiness. And the movie doesn&#8217;t make the mistake of turning Kal into a pinup for some sort of abstract &#8220;all-American&#8221; type, even though the hero initially is attracted to him for those reasons. He&#8217;s in recovery and has a traumatic family background that comes into play.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s no tour-de-force filmmaking or acting here, just skilled professionals taking a familiar template and doing something fresh with it. This is a movie that proves you don&#8217;t have to reinvent the wheel to build a new road.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em>Now available on digital platforms and VOD.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<section>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<figure>\n<div>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Matt Zoller Seitz\" src=\"https:\/\/static.rogerebert.com\/uploads\/user\/primary_image\/matt-zoller-seitz\/featured_MZS_portraits-10.jpg\" title=\"Matt Zoller Seitz\"><\/img><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div><figcaption>\n<h5><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Matt_Zoller_Seitz\"><\/span>Matt Zoller Seitz<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p>Matt Zoller Seitz is the Editor at Large\u00a0of RogerEbert.com, TV critic for New York Magazine and Vulture.com, and a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in criticism.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<section>\n<section> <\/section>\n<div>\n<div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Breaking Fast movie poster\" itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" src=\"https:\/\/static.rogerebert.com\/uploads\/movie\/movie_poster\/breaking-fast-2021\/large_breaking-fast-poster.jpg\" title=\"Breaking Fast movie poster\"><\/img><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Breaking_Fast_2021\"><\/span> Breaking Fast (2021) <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p> <meta content=\"NR\" itemprop=\"contentRating\"><\/meta> Rated NR  <\/p>\n<p> 90 minutes <meta content=\"PT90M\" itemprop=\"duration\"><\/meta><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<section>\n<section>\n<div>\n<div>\n<article target=\"_blank\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.rogerebert.com\/uploads\/blog_post\/primary_image\/streaming\/hbo-painting-with-john-john-lurie-tv-review\/thumb_painting-with-john-review.jpg\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p> about 4 hours ago <\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<article target=\"_blank\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.rogerebert.com\/uploads\/blog_post\/primary_image\/streaming\/bridge-and-tunnel-epix-edward-burns-review\/thumb_bridge-tunnel-review.jpg\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p> about 4 hours ago <\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<article target=\"_blank\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.rogerebert.com\/uploads\/blog_post\/primary_image\/streaming\/the-sister-sacrifices-logic-tension-as-its-twists-unravel\/thumb_the-sister_s1_ep01_00182_btn_04nov19rv-1.jpg\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p> 1 day ago <\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<article target=\"_blank\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.rogerebert.com\/uploads\/blog_post\/primary_image\/interviews\/the-climb-interview-michael-angelo-covino-kyle-marvin\/thumb_the-climb-interview.jpg\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p> 2 days ago <\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/section>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">For forums sites go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/forum.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Forum.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a><\/span><\/strong>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If you want to read more Like this articles, you can visit our <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.buradabiliyorum.com\/watch-movies-tv-series\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Watch Movies &#038;
