This is the first time i write a review in this website, i was so excited after seeing the movie that i really wanted to share my joy with you. I saw the movie yesterday in cinema of Iran, it was really great. The cinematic were incredible. The musics used on the film (by A.R.Rahman ) bring it to the next level! I was a fan of Hobbit and Lord before this movie, but i can tell you that this movie in almost all aspect is as good as them with a simple difference which is that the history behind it is totally true! that makes a really great feeling specially for Muslims. I cried in a lot of scenes of it and goosebumps in the miracles scenes. I repeat that the best positive point of the movie is the music which has been successfully joined with the film.

Sorry for my bad English.

I have never left a review before, but after watching this movie in theaters (I am an international student in Iran) I really wanted to express my joy at it. The visuals and sound in the movie surprised me right from the get go; I did not expect them to be this good. There were perhaps some minor areas where there could have been some improvements (more post-production and editing related), but other than that it is definitely a must watch. I hope they get really professional dubbing or sub-titling done, as a lot of non-Persian speakers will be interested in watching this movie.

In terms of the story line, the movie tried to be as honest as possible - avoiding any blatant Shia-Sunni differences. It claimed to make use of historical reports that are famously accepted by both the sects and it more or less seems to have lived up to it.

This movie is in a class of its own. It is a feast for the senses: like a work of art, a painting, or a poem. It is a gentle breeze of fresh air, in a lonely, nonspiritual world. Unlike anything I had experienced before, in the venue in which I saw the film, the majority of viewers broke down in tears of awe at least once during the showing. You could see people shed tears all around. One lady nearby let out whimpers all along, as the film was just too strong for her to control her emotions. Amazing. Just a note for the producers if they ever read this: I wish that after all 3 parts are released, the entire trilogy is shortened into one single film for those who do not have the patience to sit through a 10 hour marathon (of all 3 parts). I think for an impatient viewer, joining all 3 parts into a 2-3 hour movie would be an excellent fit.

This is what i call an "Epic" movie . you might say well , meh , this guy is Iranian and after all this movie is Iranian too . i could edit my location to any other place and you wouldn't know , but here is the point : seldomly i like a movie to a point that i cry . this movie made me cry .

as the first part of a trilogy , it perfectly balances itself not to cross any line in regards to both "Sunni" and "Shia" sects . Majid majidi for me is the Christopher Nolan of Iran . only 8 years after his last movie , he has once again astonished his fans with a touching and aspiring movie .

ALCON , this movie is well capable of wiping the floor with other movies in all international events .

This is the most expensive and sophisticated movie any Muslim country has ever created and i hope it can effectively show the real side of Islam to foreign audience .

A.R Rahman and the great staff only add to the greatness of this movie .

my Rate : 10

8 years after his last film , once again Majid Majidi has done it.this time with the cooperation of some big names behind the camera. he has made a great film about the childhood of the holy profit , Muhammad.

the story is told in different episodes just like the way Quran tells stories , but here episodes don,t match perfectly and it could be more integrated.

the cinematography is one of the best i have ever seen.it seems that the camera flies everywhere along with the young hero.watching this film is just like watching beautiful paintings in a gallery.

the whole city is actually made in real size and it takes us to 7th CAD. the visual effects ,also is believable and beautifully illustrates a story told in Quran.

the best aspect of the film seems to be the music, made by A.R Rahman. it is really unique and impressive. 3 hours is too much for this drama and it could be shorter.

after all, this is a great film to watch. it,s just a long lovely poem.
