In all honesty I was somewhat reluctant to go to the cinema and watch a 133min. Maltese movie entitled Qerq. But having heard good comments from friends I decided to give it a go. To my astounding surprise I found myself engulfed in the intriguing story and before I knew it over 2hours flew by as if they where a few minutes.
I must admit hats off to the writer, director and brilliant performance by all the actors. Not omitting the technical crew aspect where upon it rivaled an international movie.I must say the story is wound very well mixing emotion, suspense, mystery and action in the correct pro otions that make Qerq a rewarding and entertaining feature well worth the money. The actors main performance superseded my expectations and enhanced by excellent music moved me during those emotional scenes.
This could only be achieved by excellent writing and direction, compliments to Louis Cuschieri. Keep it up.
