Looking forward to this

This movie is full of lies and *beep*

It's pretty obvious from the low IMDB ranking and above comment to your post that zealotry will be a dominating force in the discussion over this film, which is a shame.

Objectively it's not as substantive a movie as I would've liked. It swings pretty haphazardly from personal home movies to attempts at poetic visual memoir to the hajj itself (by far the most interesting bits), all shot on an iPhone, which while necessary for the undercover filmmaking in the Kingdom, doesn't add a very strong visual presence to the other 70% of the flick. There's some very brief exploration of how Wahhabist ideas came to gain such a strong foothold across much of the faith but that takes a backseat to Thanksgiving dinner footage and other humanizing, but pretty boring filler. All and all it doesn't deserve the extremely low ranking it's sporting now, simply as an act of personal filmmaking it has some value, but it's also not really that strong a work considering how interesting the subject matter is.

Of course if you find the filmmaker hot then you may be more forgiving of the whole endeavor. ??

One thing is certain, no God who teaches hate stands the test of time.

Much love.
