The Zohar Secret

People giving this movie a ten out of ten rating must be as delusional as the character himself. I tried really hard to be open minded like some reviewers said before starting to watch The Zohar Secret. But after one hour I had real troubles keeping concentrated on the movie. It's all very confusing and most of all boring. Okay the producers might not have a big budget but that's not an excuse to make a bad movie. First of all it's way too long and second of all way too boring and repetitive. I won't say that all the positive reviewers are involved in some way with the movie. Some might, but I also think some people have just an awful taste in movies. Like one reviewer said, that he saw thousands of movies, I did also, and to him this one was the best ever, to me it doesn't appear in my top 1000 movies. Enough said!

All the 10/10 votes are coming from Bnei Baruch's associated. Actors, composer, director, costumes, full budget it's all coming from their associated worldwide. It's propaganda which didn't work so well. The movie was made between 2011/12, not 2016.

Cought myself thinking while watching "a few friends at film school liking 12monkeys, CloudAtlas, OneFlewOverTheCookoosNest and DaVinciCode somehow got a big(ish) budget and let rip" ...well why not.

But how about dialogue,story etc?

And Comedy,reeally? Who laughed more than twice raise the hand...oh, all aslewp, well.

Although great environment/costumes/background/props/scenery the script & (missing) dialogue is just not entertaining enough for 2h runtime.

And doesnt always make sense either, but hey, what does.

A thought-provoking, emotionally-packed and dynamic film that is guaranteed to keep you at the edge of your seat and left questioning the meaning of your life long after it ends. Max has been dealt the burden of carrying a manuscript that holds the power to change the entire course of human history- a burden he never asked for, nor truly understands. As he incarnates from person to person, era to era, an ever-persistent "self" of his continually haunts him, urging and manipulating him towards the pursuit of the inescapable purpose that He and the whole of humanity are bound to. The dichotomy between Max's interest to enjoy a pleasant, normal life, and the ever-increasing pressures that historical events/conditions and his other "Self" administer to him set the grounds for a movie experience that transcends the boundaries of an impersonal narrative and instead seeps into the conscious realm of our present-day reality, personal life, and deepest emotional questions.

This is definitely not a 8 stars movie. I wouldn't give it more than 4 stars. The rest of reviews here looks written by the same person. It's obviously a scam like all the 10 stars votes to get a better score. So I'm going to write a real review.

The story is full of all these pseudo-religious esoteric bullshit. You can see how the budget was low since they never show cities, villages or anything like that. The action it's always on interiors, caves, ruins, and old abandon buildings. The story is repetitive and unnecessary long. Since the very beginning you can imagine how is going to be the whole movie so you are just waiting and waiting until the end. And then at the end, more of this consciousness awakening bullshit. Don't waste your time.

This is the review that I would like to see here before I saw this movie.
