Phillida Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
ayush-06521 The character of Rob Cole is not very Strong as it could have been. He has no flaws. Actors have done their part very well, but the script is not the best of all. The story is otherwise very insightful and the film, very entertaining.
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
PezhmaN PulsE This is a movie made on purpose to ruin Iranian history. On the age that the movie is taking place, West and England was just a village, however, Iran was one of the greatest countries on the world, maybe not now, but it was back then. Why such idiot writers and on the top of them stupid film makers made a movie like this that doesn't fit any historical facts about Iran or Ibn-e-Sina. Ibn-e-Sina was not living in Isfahan, he was living in Hamedan which is another city in Iran. Besides, they show people from Isfahan/Iran such an ugly faces but the guy from England or the girl from Spain like a holy angel which is another ugly lie. I wish I was a film maker and could show the world of how British invasions ruined many countries specially Iran.
The Couchpotatoes Why this movie gets such a high rating is a mystery to me. The first half hour I really thought it was going to be better then it turned out to be. After one hour I was already getting so sick of this movie I could not wait for it to end. And it's an extremely long movie, so my patience has been tested. The story is just weak and way too long to be interesting. There is way too much crap about religions, about how Allah is great and other bullshit. The tension between Muslims, Jews and Christians is not new, it's always been like that, and I'm sick of it. So watching a movie about dumb people praising a God is nothing for me. It's just incredibly boring to watch. The soundtrack or effects are also very boring, it almost made me fall asleep. Like they want to create a tension or whatever and fail completely. I watch between two and three movies per day and this is one of the worst I saw this month. Don't be fooled by the cast because even them can not save this boring movie. I would avoid this movie at all cost. Unless you're one of those dumb believers of a God.
