Maste eshgh

The film MestiAsk has break record, has attracted more than 50,000 viewers on its first day and grossed more than 3.5 billion tombs, achieved great success by breaking the first day sales record in Iran.

Many Iranians who have seen MestiAsk praise among other things about the film such as the great performances, the great production and the great soundtrack, the wonderful performance of Hande Ercel who brings Kimya to life and conveys and makes you feel everything she feels, and being very saddening the end of her character, and congratulate Hande Ercel and the whole team for their great talent and hard work, and for the great success of the film.

The most significant part of the movie is its unbelievable balance from different aspects. This great movie contains acceptable philosophy concepts, drama scenes, battles and etc. Also the movie beautifully stays between Iranian (Persian) and Turkish culture.

In addition, this masterpiece shows various moral and positive concepts which are definite parts of the story about those great humans. As an example this wonderful movie depicts anti war scenes and dialogues.

Furthermore, fascinating time jumps are a real art and a big plus point about this nice movie. Those time jumps make this biography and historical movies a nice drama one which is interesting for everyone.

This movie was one of the most awaited and controversial movies of Iranian cinema that I was waiting for, a philosophical and mystical story that at the same time deals with war and its consequences, and also deals with a love story. .... A complete and amazing movie, especially with the beautiful acting of Shahab Hosseini and Ibrahim Celikkol .

The point that exists is that besides being one of the great Iranian mystics, Rumi and Shams are also among the great poets of Iran. I think their poems should have been used more as a dialogue.

This movie had the ability to be made at least as a mini-series, pay attention, I say at least, because the story has the capacity of a long series, and I don't know why it was not made as a series.

In general, the editing work was good, the jumps to the past and present were well done.

The Farsi dubbing and dubbing of the Turkish actors was poorly done.

All in all, it was a great movie of Iranian and Turkish cinema. I definitely suggest you see it.

And finally, for a better understanding of Shams and Rumi's life, I suggest reading the book The Forty Rules of Love written by Elif safak.

This film has just been released in Iran, is directed by Hasan Fathi, and is based on the famous and true story of the friendship between Molan (Rumi) and Shams. Although I did not expect to watch a high-level movie, the more it passed, the more I got excited.

Actually, it started out a little boring because of too many flashbacks, but by the end, I was so satisfied. I want to count some positive points of this movie:

1. I believe it is actually a multicultural movie because the actors and actresses had been chosen from two nationalities, Turkey and Iran. Also, because Rumi's character in Turkey and even throughout the world is as important and well-known as in Iran, it can be a movie for extended audiences.

2. This movie could reflect Rumi's age well. And it was successful in representing the changes that Rumi had experienced during his friendship with Shams.

3. One of the most interesting things was that, although the movie was about Rumi's life, it was difficult to recognize the leading actor or actress from the supporting one, even until the end, because the director could use other actors and actresses, as well as Parsa Pirouzfar (Rumi) and Shahab Hosseini (Shams).

4. The music, the special effects, the costume designing, the set design, the cinematography, the making-up and so on were the other positive points of this movie. But if I were the screenwriter I would write a little differently.

5. This movie, in my opinion, was able to show Rumi's message and I think it could be attractive to many people in Iran and even in the world. Because Rumi's message is not limited to his age and geography. And also, I believe that it could attract the latest generations to Iran's medieval history.

6. After all, I believe this movie can be counted as a turning point in the history of historical movies that have been made in Iran.

I have extensively researched and studied the narratives surrounding Molana and Shams, and I can attest that their story, and the love that emanates from it, is profoundly moving and inspiring. While the movie does not solely focus on their tale, it adeptly captures its essence.

"Intoxicated" prompts introspection about one's reality, touching upon various themes including love, politics, and warfare. It encourages viewers to question their identity, prompting a reevaluation of life to savor each moment. Furthermore, the film deepens one's appreciation for love's transformative power - a force capable of both igniting and extinguishing conflicts, and transcending divisions such as racism.

In summary, "Intoxicated" is a cinematic experience that has the potential to profoundly alter one's perspective on life. I highly recommend watching this film.
