The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
That movie is more than " ExCeLLent " ... .. it's One of my top 10 movie-list , ..Talking about historical Islam starting to all world ,with a nice views of true story start in " MecCa " .. to almost " MiddleEast " area ..
I watch this movie many times in both English and Arabic version I loved more the Arabic one, maybe because it is my native.I think the acting was good, and in general, this was a good introduction to the religion of Islam.This shorten they real story to the maximum.Anyone who want to read more detailed facts how Islam started, he can got al raheeq al makhtum book. I think they can make a full series from it. That was an old movie, but one of the all-time best. It gives us an idea how the life in desert is. How the early Arabs was. How the first conflicts about Islam and the react of others.
honestly one of the best films ever made. this movie shows the life of Muhammad the prophet and messenger of Islam(Peace be upon him). the director of this movie is Moustapha Akkad who was killed in a suicide attack. and there is some rumors that he was killed because he directed this film. Mustapha Akkad one of the pioneering Arabic directors, and to me that is enough. The story of Islam put in its best form on motion picture. I recommend this movie to every one of all ages; especially people that would like to know or get a better understanding of haw the religion of Islam started. and i advice everyone to watch it whatever your religion.
