Community Reviews
Viewers generally appreciate 'Eagles of the Republic' for its deep dive into political intrigue and the strong performances, particularly by Fares Fares. The film effectively blends drama and thriller elements, capturing the oppressive atmosphere of Egyptian politics. However, some found the plot overly complex and the pacing uneven, with certain scenes dragging on unnecessarily. The film's bold critique of Egyptian authority and its interplay of personal and political conflicts stand out.
