I think its marmite, you'll love it or you'll hate it, I liked it a lot but then I like MJ and have also had my share of thus type of religious thinking in my younger days. Its a life story shared over the course of growing through teenage years to adulthood and how western culture can conflict with the eastern culture, though fictional its presented as someones life story and I also like life stories, so its all round enjoyable film for me.
Remarkable acting (puts Hollywood/New York to their robotic shame) for this Egyptian produced story of a young boy growing up in 1990s Alexandria, Egypt, and starting out fascinated with Michael Jackson's music & dance (as probably most of the world was). He faces stern (mildly put) control by his father to become an educated devout real man. The movie juxtaposes that experience with his current life as an Iman leading prayers at his mosque. There is dissonance within him as he remembers his youth of dance & music, but under Qur'anic precept loving life is a sin at risk of losing an eternity with God. So, MJ within this person is the fulcrum/tool/vehicle by which the battle between Western culture and Muslim culture is fought.
A wonderful movie in every sense of the word
It shows the volatility of young people and their attempt to be close to religion.
The film is complete work casting direction Montague everything was prefect every actor was suitable for his role or we can say that actors made themselves perfect for their roles maged was the best actor in this show malek showed a confused teenage escaping from his empty life and his cruel father trying to find hims self in music and dancing fishawy wasn't able to present best he can the role was very short that i until the end and after end couldn't understand what happen after this his transform
the film was a good chance but the writer couldn't make best use of it
