jamayetahmed I love Majid Majidi's work. This movie is also a good one. The camera work, the use of color everything was really good. But the story should be more organised. As the main focus was the first 40 years of the prophet life so there should be more important story in the movie. Actually the original work of the prophet not seen in the movie. It's mainly focus with supernatural things with the prophet. But the struggle and the difficulty faced in the life of the prophet is not mentioned clearly. Hope the next two sequel will be better than this.
xxhassanonexx Beautiful, JUST WATCH IT,and Judge it by yourself,nothing more...
mkmk-997-858049 One thing was so surprising to me that the massive amount of publicity was granted to the movie; after all it made up my mind to watch the movie at the theater. I want to start with good impulses. First of all I loved the music. The music-styling and composition was impressive; it almost captures the archaic and epical cadences of an original oriental-roman style. I should mention that the custom design was sth that was giving a dangerous quality to the movie.Actually, I expected much more battle scenes, because of the challenging and hostile waves of the first period of the Islamic history. Special effects was effected and terribly handled. The make-ups was not very detailed.I hesitated there were some major flaws in the plot itself. At the first impression, it seemed that the connection between the editing and the screenplay was infant with no sophistication; retelling some independent events with a clumsy attempt to make sense of the sequences.If overlooked, following and understanding the Mohammed's (PBEH) character from the movie was totally perplexed me: Sentimentality was sth rampant throughout the movie, the PLOT. Sometimes evoking a feeling of deception. As Armstrong says: "Their scripture, the Qur'an, gave them a mission: to create a just and decent society, in which all members were treated with respect. The political well- being of the Muslim community was, and is, a matter of supreme importance." But this supreme importance was depicted as some miracles and superstitions; even the prophet himself was illustrated as an angel descended from heavens! The movie could have a cultural consequences to introduce the real Islam, but it seems that it missed the opportunity.
David Kiliand This is the first time i write a review in this website, i was so excited after seeing the movie that i really wanted to share my joy with you. I saw the movie yesterday in cinema of Iran, it was really great. The cinematic were incredible. The musics used on the film (by A.R.Rahman ) bring it to the next level! I was a fan of Hobbit and Lord before this movie, but i can tell you that this movie in almost all aspect is as good as them with a simple difference which is that the history behind it is totally true! that makes a really great feeling specially for Muslims. I cried in a lot of scenes of it and goosebumps in the miracles scenes. I repeat that the best positive point of the movie is the music which has been successfully joined with the film.Sorry for my bad English.
