Five Moroccans are pushed to the fringes in Casablanca by an extremist government.

"Razzia" is fatally crippled by a conceit that flattens the characters to serve an argument, like bullet points in a sweeping editorial about the current state of Morocco.

Ayouch pointlessly, gracelessly entwines the fates of five thinly sketched types ... whose aimless arcs don't so much climatically intersect as reach the same Hail Mary non-ending simultaneously.

A sprawling cri de coeur set in the heart of modern-day Casablanca, Nabil Ayouch's Razzia is an intense network narrative that nearly collapses under the weight of its own ambitions.

2/5

It is eye-opening in its rawness and introduces interesting questions. It leaves many of them unresolved, however, consequently feeling unsure of its message.

2.5/5

Obviously, [Director Nabil Ayouch's] criticism of retreating values speaks as much to the countries of the Maghreb as it does to Europe today, but his cry against injustice is far less complex. [Full review in Spanish]

Watched this move at the Toronto film festival last year. excellent on every level. I found it to be a very accurate portrayal of the social issues in morocco. if you want to understand modern day morocco this movie will help. it is a must see.

To me Nabil, tried unsuccefully to copy past Babel movie in every aspect. I think he missed an opportunity to tackle serious issues such as Rif and all Morocan claims to democracy, education, health infrastructure...
