It's a trap, the trailer. Another trap is the poster. Would argue that it was a waste of money, but it is obvious that there was no budget at all for this film. Such a shame that this (purpose) of a movie would waste stars like Robert Kneeper or Gary Dourdan. Several plot gaps Lots of contradictions. Terrible storytelling jumbled chapters that wouldn't stick together with glue. Fatal errors. Lack of character and thoughtfulness never surfaced in the protagonist. There were many issues. To have the necessary justifications for writing this review and, maybe, sparing your souls from having to see this punishment, I had to make the ultimate sacrifice and watch the entire film.

Never heard about "The Moderator" from writers Hicham Hajji and Jonathan McConnell before sitting down to watch it. But since I do believe in given a movie a fair chance, of course I sat down to watch "The Moderator" as I had the opportunity to do so.
First of all, I think the fact that the movie is using the grizzly murder of two Scandinavian women in Morocco back in 2018 as its foundation was sort of improper and distasteful, especially to those left behind after that tragedy. So that left a somewhat foul taste in my mouth.
The storyline itself, if you remove the abovementioned aspect, was actually fair enough. Sure, this wasn't exactly a groundbreaking action thriller, but the movie was watchable enough for what it turned out to be.
The acting in the movie was adequate, and I was surprised to see the likes of Robert Knepper and Gary Dourdan in a movie such as this. And just how or why lead actress Irma Lake was hired for this movie was simply beyond my comprehension. Sure, she was able to throw a punch and do physical fighting, but she wasn't really blessed with much of any noticeably acting talent.
Is it just me, but does it raise an eyebrow when a supposedly dead man twitches an eye?
The music in the movie was actually rather good, and somewhat well composed.
"The Moderator" came and went without leaving a lasting impression on me. And while it is was a movie that I managed to sit through, it is not a movie that I will ever return to watch a second time.
My rating of director Zhor Fassi-Fihri's 2022 action thriller "The Moderator" lands on a four out of ten stars.

So basically the movie is trying to sell the idea those two Scandinavian girls that were killed in Morocco were not killed by ISIS but rather snuff producers from the west and a Russian girl slash vigilantly slash serial killer killed them all , and now Morocco is safe , look at all those good sight seeing spots , come back soon !
Well I don't blame them if they are that desperate , but I hate watching two hours ads ...
A side notice , the plot holes are more than you can count , you will just stop counting right after they talk about a girl that was raped 24 hours earlier that she lost her case on trial and committed suicide out of shame , so yea they do not preserve a logical timeline either .

Always check the rating on IMDb before you watch a film. When I decided to watch this film, I forgot to check out the rating. As some people said the trailer and poster are traps, I totally agree with them. Yes, the poster really looks good and also the trailer. But the film is not. It looks like amateur and low budget. The fighting scenes are not that good as I thought it would be. Some dialogues and acting are a bit weird. And as I've said in above, the trailer is much better than the actual film. That being said, I like how it ends. It's kind of good.
So, to conclude this review, if they could do better than this, this film might turn out to be just fine.

Really bad acting, the two male leaders are good but the rest are awful.
I started watching it thinking It would get better, how wrong I was.
I think it was a case of take the money and run.

Bad script, worse acting, worst behind the scene team.
Look at the poster, the main character even doesn't have gun, keep looking at the poster, she never wore that lingerie, still looking at poster?! Yeah nothing related to the movie.
The story was divided into two different subjects not pertinent to each other, too.
So let me warp this for you, enjoy your life and don't touch this.

Okay, Let's start with the poster. I think that's probably the only good thing about this movie. So, props to the graphic designer though the poster is more like a watchbait. It literally has nothing to do with the content of the film or what you'd expect from it. She's holding two guns with thousands of bullets surrounding her yet she never used a single gun in the entire movie. Oh, and I don't think I remember a single shot being fired in general. So, yeah! I feel tricked by the poster.
Now let's talk about the stroy plot. I think it was written by a 5-year-old. It's cluncky and predictable. Not to mention the endless errors that can't even be fixed by CGI. 7 minutes in it says Miami, FL while it's clearly Rabat, Morocco. I mean they didn't even bother to shoot the first chase scene somewhere where Hassan Tower (the most famous landmark in Rabat) can't be seen.
Next, we head to Morocco where the lead character is trying to avenge the death of her two friends. The cops couldn't be more rediculous. They seem to have graduated from Insp. Jacques Clouseau's academy.
The conversations between the characters can't be more confusing. Two moroccan cops converse in English, next minute the question a Moroccan boy in Arabic. Why? Just why on earth would you do that? You either make an entire movie in English so everyone can undersand it, or keep the original language when it should be. That's why Inglorious Basterds is one of my all time favorite. Tarantino respected every language used in the movie.
My only hope was that it could be saved by Prison Break's Robert Knepper, but he didn't really seem really interested in acting in this film. I think he just got paid to be himself. On a second that, I'm glad he was equally bad. He probably had to lower his standards otherwise the final result would be unbalanced.
Final thoughts: I was hoping that this would deal with the real event that took place in Morocco and deal with terrorists in a Liam Nesson Kind of way, but the movie went into another direction that has nothing to do with terrorism.
I highly don't recommed watching this.
