Djinn

I Agree the story was cool...some intense scenes! I thought it was unique and interesting, especially from the back ground of this film. Being a middle eastern story and all. The lead guy "Imad" looks like the guy from the mummy. Lots of cool desert scenes, loved the fortuneteller, and the hookah scene.

The film is not a typical mindless film, it is very indie, you have to watch it a few times to get the weird hidden meanings, my buddies thought the same. The ending was cool, i just saw this on cable movies on-demand, I looked up the film maker, was his first film.,..very cool!

Will look forward to more.

The one thing that attracted me to see this movie was the story,which is very good.The acting it's... lets just say they can do better if they try to do so (or maybe not).The movie gets boring in a few minutes and at one point you ask yourself why did you want to see this movie,and you remember it was for the story.I'm going to talk a little about the story.It's based on an ancient middle eastern fairy tale.Imad's love Amina gets taken in her dream by an evil genie.Now Imad travels the black desert so he can reach the Tree of Life and save her. In conclusion don't get high expectations when you go see the movie,or you will be disappointed,it's not worth your time.

in my whole life i had never seen a movie so boring and without head and tail. i will request everyone not to watch this movie even if you got nothing else to do. i don't know how people can make such movies.

the other guy said it right:

It truly amazes me that there are people in Hollywood who are willing to finance movies like this one.

Save yourself the pain of wasting even a minute of your life in watching this title. There are plenty of other (and better) movies out there.

hope you all find this information useful

At the time I am writing this, this movie has a vote of 8.5. I saw the cover of this film and thought "well that looks crap" but due to the score, I thought I'd give it a shot. I watched the first 15 min of it and I've got no bloody idea what was going on, all the bad effects was making my eyes water so I turned it off. The director clearly wanted to achieve a mystical sense, but all he seemed to achieve was headache for the viewer.

The sound quality is quite bad. The voices have a low rumbling noise and combined with the bad English some of the actors spoke made it almost impossible to understand what they were saying. You can tell the film roll has been lying around because the first 5 minutes of the film has scratches and debris all over it. At first I thought it was an effect, but now I am pretty sure it was not.

For an Arab film, they could of at least picked some more hot girls. The acting... well what can I say about the acting, it is as good as the actor's spoken English, which is pretty crap.

I don't know if a middle eastern viewer would even like this. It is just a headache. If this film was made back in the time of world war II, the Nazi's would have used it as a torture device.

I should have known, a movie that has only 8 votes but gets a score of 8.9 had something suspicious about it. Add to that, alarm bells should have sounded, when I found out that the movie writer also produced; directed and starred in this flop.

After watching around 40 minutes of this drivel (it was so painfully awful) I gave up and turned on the television - watching commercials on the TV were more interesting than putting myself through the agony of poor acting; filming; direction and "special effects" of this lame film.

It truly amazes me that there are people in Hollywood who are willing to finance movies like this one.

Save yourself the pain of wasting even a minute of your life in watching this title. There are plenty of other (and better) movies out there.
