A masterful debut from one of England's boldest and brightest new talents, Sally El Hosaini's MY BROTHER THE DEVIL stars James Floyd as Rashid, a young man from a traditional Arab family who runs with a gang that rules the streets of Hackney, one of London's most ethnically-mixed and historically volatile neighborhoods. Rashid's younger brother, Mo, (Fadi Elsayed) idolizes his handsome, charismatic older brother and dreams of following in his footsteps, but Rashid envisions a different life for Mo and insists that he stay away from gang life and stick to his studies. When Rashid forms a bond with Sayyid (Said Taghmaoui), an older man of similar background who is now a successful photographer, he is introduced to a world he never knew existed. But, just as he decides he wants out of his dead-end life on the streets, Mo decides he wants in, and starts doing drug runs behind Rashid's back. Headed on a collision course of conflicting desires, each young man is forced to face himself and confront the brother he thought he knew. (c) Paladin

Movie Overview For My Brother The Devil
Fourteen-year-old Mo is a lonely, sensitive boy whose hunger for the rant and banter of buddies makes him prone to tread dangerous territories. He idolizes his handsome older brother, Rashid, a charismatic, well-respected member of a local gang, whose drug dealing enables â€œRashâ€ to provide for his family. Aching to be seen as a tough guy himself, Mo takes a job that unlocks a fateful turn of events and forces the brothers to confront their inner demons. It turns out that hate is easy. It is love and understanding that take real courage.

Trailer For My Brother The Devil

Review For My Brother The Devil

Nuances of faith, politics and sexual identity enrich what initially presents as a classic good son-bad son tale, and although the film's melting-pot patois is occasionally too dense to decipher, we get the gist.
Jeannette Catsoulis-New York Times

El Hosaini fights the conventions of the brotherly gangster melodrama, but the conventions win.
Mark Jenkins-NPR

It's far superior to what usually comes out of the British slums in the genre of gangland thrillers.
Rex Reed-New York Observer

A tender, bracing fraternal drama of London's gang life, the immigrant experience, and questions no smaller than what "manhood" might mean to young men whose traditional cultures are colliding with the worst-and the best-of the secular west.
Alan Scherstuhl-Village Voice

Sally El Hosaini brings sensitivity, distinctive identity and an invigorating adrenaline charge to a story of criminally inclined youth in suburban East London in her dynamic first feature.
David Rooney-Hollywood Reporter

An energetic and imaginative tale of siblings at a criminal crossroads.
John Anderson-Variety

With My Brother the Devil, writer-director Sally El Hosaini tells a story both operatic in its implications and quotidian in its sensory, day-to-day details.
Steve Macfarlane-Slant Magazine

It's refreshing to see a new generation reinterpret the classics. James Cagney would be proud.
Mike D'Angelo-AV Club

It's to newcomer Sally El Hosaini's credit that she embeds a tangible, lived-in sense of the region's diaspora community and urban criminal underbelly that's leagues away from anthropological fetishizing.
David Fear-Time Out New York

There probably aren't too many Welsh-Egyptian writer-directors like newcomer Sally El Hosaini. But she's clearly representative of a new kind of diversity in modern Britain. And one which bodes well for its filmmaking future.
Graham Young-Birmingham Mail

As well as touching upon everything from homophobia to terrorism and the merits of bacon, it delivers a heart-touching degree of optimism that's all too rare for this genre.
Graham Young-Birmingham Post

In the busy swirl of London urban dramas which fly in and out of our cinemas this thoughtful and powerful film stands above the crowd.
Jon Lyus-HeyUGuys

The performances are uneven, but as the brothers, Floyd and Elsayed are both rather good.
Philip French-Observer [UK]

Sharply well-observed, this punchy British drama is packed with rising-star talent, including its gifted first-time writer-director, an engaging young cast and skilled cinematographer David Raedeker.
Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com

It's the twists in director and writer Sally El Hosaini's plot which set My Brother apart from the standard inner-city gang film.
Alex Zane-Sun Online

El Hosaini's skill as a director, and her way with an excellent cast, eventually triumphs.
Derek Malcolm-This is London

It becomes a winning mixture of Bullet Boy and My Beautiful Laundrette, and not nearly as dreary or dispiriting as you may fear.
Christopher Tookey-Daily Mail [UK]

It's an athletic, loose-limbed piece of movie-making, not perfect, but bursting with energy and adrenaline.
Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]

Just when you thought gun crime in London's East End couldn't possibly yield another movie worth seeing, along comes My Brother the Devil to show us what we've all been missing.
Tim Robey-Daily Telegraph

The plotting may be a tad unconvincing at times but the performances are outstanding.
Henry Fitzherbert-Daily Express

Pays real dividends with controversial themes and issues dealt with simply and subtly to provide a genuinely authentic insight into a mob experience that dare not speak its name.
Tim Evans-Sky Movies

El Hosaini's voice remains crisp, cool and consistently street-smart.
Guy Lodge-Empire Magazine
