One of my all time favorites.

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

There are incorrect practices portrayed in movie about Islam. This movie is not the place to learn about Islam and make comments about facts on Islam.4 persons are needed in witnessing adultery otherwise no action can be taken. Be warned to not learn about Islam through movies such as this. Grow up. Find out and learn.The movie is about the good and the bad in humans. The uneducated will choose the path that is to their preference irregardless of the laws of the countries or laws of religions. Seek knowledge. Seek knowledge. Seek knowledge.

It's a great movie. Its story is nice and real. Kandahar Break in its attempt to highlight Afghanistan as a brutal place before British and American troops removed the Taliban leaders. And it also shows Baloch freedom fighters of Baluchistan struggle for an independent Baluchistan.Afghanistan as a place under Taliban rulers may no longer exist, but Kandahar Break attempts to take us back there with a story about love, loss and revenge. Rather than a film about war, it's more about a man's personal journey and what happens when he finds love in a place which forbids it. Tatmain Ul Qulb as Jamilah, the woman he falls in love with, is beautiful and captivating. Her time on screen though limited to flashbacks is enough to make her presence felt throughout. As a love story, I would have liked to have seen it from her perspective and to learn why she would risk everything for an affair with Richard.As an outsider in Afghanistan, Richard has no idea about the rules, customs and the religion of the people there. As he makes no attempt to learn about any of these, he finds himself singled out as an infidel. When met with hostility he protests that he is English and pleads for them to speak English with him. I've come to know from several of my own travels that by learning even a few words of a country's language, you are more likely to receive a warmer reception than by not doing so. Richard's affair with Jamilah follows a similar pattern, and though we see why he would fall in love with her, I found it hard to see why she would reciprocate.

Again, as some of the movies that include Muslims did, this movie has a lot of misconceptions and fallacies about Islam - the biggest one is the center of the drama when a "Sheik" saw a Muslim woman kissing a western man, so the quick decision made is to punish her with death, and him also in a later stage - This has NO relation with Islam, and Islam certainly wouldn't call for a death punishment for a kiss! A lot of fallacies that contributes to make the image about Islam as the religion of a bunch of crazy bad-looking dirty men enslaving their women, and killing anyone they want with permission from their God - Which is a completely wrong image, and it's actually the opposite.In the movie, a man killed another because that other man was seriously injured and calling for help - In Islam, taking a sole with such no-reasoning is a shame ... It always promotes saving lives even if it's a pet's life.If you're looking for some drama in a strange world, watch this movie, but don't take your info about Islam out of it.

Going into Kandahar Break, I was not too sure what to expect, but coming out of the film, it's clear to say what the film is. It's a harsh look at the realities of a giant culture clash. Its a drama, centred around a love story, set in Afghanistan. The characters are really solid in this film, Shaun Dooley who plays Richard Lee, a clearance engineer who returns to Afghanistan shortly after he death of his ex-wife in Africa, is really something special. He comes across as something of a excellent TV actor, with leading man qualities, its going to be nice to see him do some interesting roles in the future. Dean Andrews plays the other British citizen in the film, Steve Delamore, who almost steals each scene he is in.The other actors, mainly played by local actors of Afghanistan are also very good, with much praise going to Hameed Sheikh who may not have the biggest part in the film, but has one of my personal favourite characters in the film.The directing of the film was pretty good, it does at some times feel a bit like a TV movie, but a good TV movie. David Whitney has certainly come from a TV background, but is certainly heading in the right direction to be a good feature director. The camera is still when it needs to be still and hectic when it needs to be hectic.Overall the full film is pretty pacey, clocking in at 94 minutes, the time flies by and at no point does the film drag. If you get the chance, and enjoy a good solid drama, Kandahar Break is a film you should be watching.
