Top 5 reasons why you should see Tyrant

1. Its based on a true story. In fact is so close to the truth it would amaze you, Barry the doctor has a all the similarities with his real human counterpart Bashar al-Assad the president of Syria, at first you may think but why would they make them so alike even if Barrys family rule in a fictional country and Assad in Syria since it would make it belivable.

2. It takes on the Middle Eastern extremism, both the extremism that a Tyrant that rules a Country brings where he takes away the peoples freedom to speak freely and the Tyranny of Extremism in Islam in such organizations as Islamic State(IS/ISIS), the Levant and other groups that robs people of their freedom and are themselves the Tyrant of their own religion.

3. It takes on the Oil problem in the Middle East and how the Oil affects the power struggle between countries and how alliances are made out of resources.

4. It takes on the issues on Old vs New. The old traditions that has been in a country changes fast and how people react to changes they are put in. Like education and in the presence of religion where female gets more rights and how this may affect extremists group that think this going to far away from the religious books

5. Its made by FX Channel. The same channel that made shows such as Sons of Anarchy and Homeland and the channel is known for their realistic perspective on world problems and local problems using the viewer as an instrument since they know the viewer most likely watches the news and like to be informed about the world and its issues.

Before we(1:30 Train) review(Spoiler Free)

Reviewers Intro

I just watched the romantic movie made Chris Evans. Its his directorial debut after being Steve Rogers/Captain America in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. When he took that role he got better being more dramatc actor, since he comes from comedic roots and has a long track record in playing in romantic movies who are mainstream.


This movie is not mainstream and its made for an audience used to Indie movies. Who knows that the movie isnt set in a straight line and that the ending is open for evey individual to interpret individually

Movie Plot

In the beginning we see a stressed girl running after the train she misses, she looses her cell phone when a lonely musician picks it up and starts communicating with her. This is the start of the movie and we soon learn both their pasts and their different viewpoints after spending time with them, we learned what led them to New York in the first place and how that One Night in New York changed their lives forever.

Actors performances

The musician Nick is played by Chris Evans who seem to have learned to play the trumpet and the girl who misses the train called Brooke is played by Alice Eve from Star Trek: Into Darkness and She is Out of my League.

Both actors seem to have the chemistry on Screen and New York is seemed to be a realistic place where crimes are commited and there places you can seek before you take the train home. Its as much about the two people as its about the City itself, thats what makes this movie so Unique and not a standard romantic movie, since its focuses on two people and a town they are in for a Night.

Movie Grade

I would grade this movie as 6 Mile movie to see, its different, and it will take you to unexpected places. Its for the more mature audience, but I would say this movie is worth seeing with a girl who understands this type of mature movie, where the story is set in  a way where its more character driven and driven by amazing cinematography highlighting a City, rather than expensive effects and overused movie plots.
