Cinematically Pretty Irritating!
No offence intended to anyone but it gets really irritating to watch a film which expects you to suspend your disbelief off limits by not ever showing it's Protagonist. OK, there's a reason for that but then the narrative could have been chosen from someone else's POV. It just never makes sense almost in all the starting parts of all the scenes involving Prophet Mohammad. You are left wondering what happened?
So, I pretty much couldn't digest what was being said around because it was all like "Someone is trying to tell a story about a bunch of people who heard some beautiful things from a man & started following him. Except that someone refuses to tell the words itself from the source (i.e The Prophet). It is told by some people to some other people that they heard it from this man that god has spoken to him & they are all acting like they have heard it themselves in the 1st place. So it is pretty irritating & confusing."
OK guys one question? Especially to all my Muslim friends out there. If Mohammad's image cannot be portrayed in any art form then why even allow a it to be shown partially (His Back, Veiled face, Shadow)?
Not showing him contradicts one of the biggest beliefs of Islam that ultimately Mohammad was just a human because not showing him creates an unconscious over glorification of the man. It is like he is a divine creature throughout the film. Too Pious to be portrayed by mere humans.
