The Kingdom of Solomon

Such a waste of time and money! I watched this in Fajr festival and I was really surprised to see that such a great deal of money (according to Iranian expenses)had lead to an almost unwatchable movie. It doesn't have a plot. Characters are flat and the cast are all some 2nd rated TV non-stars. Visual effects are just as good as a low-budget Asian action movie. Cinematography is a job well done, though there are several repeated shots. Other than that every thing is poor and it's really exhausting to watch it through the end. I guess this movie was just another excuse for the government to accuse Jewish people and nothing more.

It may be the first Iranian film to have international quality. When I saw the film, I was very happy that Iranian cinema has progressed so much that make a quality film. Wait for higher quality movies from Iran.

The Kingdom of Solomon is simulation and imitation of some Hollywood movies . You can't see anything interesting in this movie , and it's like a reminder of some movies and TV series . If you watche this movie you can see the old zombies of 80's and you can see the Lost TV series smoke thing or you can see the 80's spaceships in the case of a ship with an average visual effect for all effects .

The other issue is this that the story is not completely defined , the characters are not completely introduced to viewer ;for example even you will recognize the Solomon's wife when she is going to die ... and so on .

The viewers in cinema laughed to drama and visual effects that was in this movie , the film is full of horse riding that makes the viewer tired , and , and , and , and ...

So at last I recommend to you to not to watch this movie . It's wasting time , It has nothing , Not story , not any interesting visual effects and in fact it's a repetitive movie with a lower level that you ever seen before . The 5 million dollars wasted for nothing .

Thank you. Best Regards.

First - Amin does a brilliant acting job at Sulaiman, not only as a strong and powerful king when he needs to be, but as a grounded and humble prophet too! Also - The film crew did a brilliant job of showing how the son of the Prophet Dawud would rule, it gives you a glimpse of Sulaiman would have actually ruled in his time. Education- The film does a brilliant job in giving us an insight into what Sulaiman did and how as it is quite hard to research into this particular character compared to others such as Jesus (PBUH) or Muhammad (PBUH). Film - The film does a brilliant job in entertainment, it has neither too much or too little action and neither too much or too little dragging bits. (and no cheesy scenes! :) ) I HIGHLY recommend you watch this and the 2 following films that, INSHALLAH!, will come out.

Yes the Visual effects -which the Chinese did by the way -were not great,the pace of movie is not acceptable and it has many flaws and is far from great by cinematography measures But...and yes it is a very big But,It tells the TRUTH which seems to be omitted in the Great movies (Then again by cinematography measures)of today,the time when God is never mentioned (if not in blasphemy)& his prophets are made known as merely KINGS & SEERS. Some of us just think of demons as subjects of tales & myths & aren't even aware of their huge role now and even more in the future as our enemies,the sworn enemies of humans. Watch this movie to know who Solomon the prophet was & What role did he have, and will have in the world of Today and in the future.
