Having delved deeply into the relationship between Molana and Shams, I can confidently say their story is one of the most powerful and stirring narratives of spiritual and emotional connection. Although Intoxicated doesn't exclusively center on their journey, it beautifully distills its spirit, offering viewers a glimpse into that profound love.

The film is more than just a retelling-it's an invitation to reflect. With its exploration of themes like love, war, identity, and societal structures, Intoxicated challenges us to reconsider how we live and relate to the world around us. It urges a conscious embrace of the present and highlights love as a radical force-one that can bridge divides, dissolve prejudice, and even bring peace where there was once conflict.

Ultimately, Intoxicated isn't just a film-it's an experience that stays with you long after the credits roll. It has the power to shift your worldview, and I wholeheartedly recommend it.

Following numerous controversies, this much-anticipated film finally hit theaters. With a narrative centered on two significant Iranian historical figures and poets, Molana "Rumi" and his mentor Shams, the storyline held immense promise. However, the execution falls short of expectations. The movie suffers from a confused and inconsistent plot structure, frequently jumping back and forth between various points in the story. Moreover, it tends to focus more on peripheral side stories rather than delving deep into the core narrative. As a result, what could have been an epic Iranian historical biography movie is instead reminiscent of a Turkish romance drama. The film fails to fully capture the essence and significance of its central characters and their historical context. Despite its potential, it ultimately disappoints, leaving viewers wishing for a more cohesive and impactful cinematic experience.

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.

This movie is so interesting I am trying not give out the spoiler. We I was at the edge of my seat throughout of the movie. I am not into romance movie but this was a different one . It changes the way I see romance in movies. A well written plot and story kudos to the directors and crews for giving us the privilege to see this masterpiece.

Some people may have preferred the movie to end in another way but this was just so perfect.

The thrilling experience and epic moments in the movie should always be talked about. It has a lot of plot twist in it. Just my kind of story writing movies (Don'tet the viewers know what is coming next)

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.
