ti-jaheed Dear director, producer, writer and all associated personnel, I don't understand where did you get the history of 'A Muslim bows before a human'. Shame on you!!
cajonblews76 Wonderful show it's a must to see! It's gr8 to see how learning about medicine in 1020's was like. Gr8 actore very well put together enjoyed it all the way! would love to see a part 2
hniecalista I have to say that the story, the actors, the special effect and the shooting set are great and I will give it 8 out of 10 only if the genre of the movie is a fiction drama movie with all fiction characters and setting. I know it based on the novel, but if you want to make it as a movie then they need to do a lot of researches about the history because they expose the real figure, "Ibn Sina".Having fictional character and using the real history as the setting of the story, and also to have the imaginary connection between the fiction characters with the real live characters are still okay as long as they don't twist the real history.The death of Ibn Sina, the unknown Persian king with his problem with the barbarian seljuk and the strange Islam sect community (maybe be they want to say "It's a Shia Muslim dude") made this movie turned out to be ridiculous! and the forbidden relation between the lead character with the pretty girl also made this movie to be "a Hollywood" movie which needs sex and love scandal.
eminguven9 I want to analyze film from history side. And I say to you, it is a big lie!Firstly, İbn Sina was a Muslim, the film hiding that. Secondly He was not Persian, was Turkish. Thirdly he was not suicide, he died in Hamadan from nature way. Forthly He didn't live age of Seljuks. Fifthly Seljuks showing like barbarian and enemies of civilization in the film but that is a trick. However Seljuks established the first university in history, it was ''Nizamiyyah Madrasahs''. Sixthly showing Seljuks like enemies of Jews and genociders. That is not true. Khazar Turkish State(Khazars) and Ottomans helped Jews at vital importance moments. Seventhly, Rob Cole, starring role, came a level in knowledge that doing a mastery to İbn Sina, that is ridiculous... Another example, eighthly İbn Sina's master was not Aristotle or Hippocrates, He just read and translated them, Al-Biruni was main master him...I can not understand, why they try cozen to people.. Please say stop that!
