very different format for a demon possession kind of movie. A pregnant American woman who was due to give birth in just days brutally stabbed to death and her sister Olivia researches the subject and is awakened to the terrifying truth that demons exist and are not a good thing. There are many "copy cat" movies about Exorcisms but this is not one of them. Some of you may not agree but something about this movie really gave me that scared to go to bed with the lights off feeling. That doesn't happen often to me. The story is clear, the script is good. The story and film are paced well. The plot also has a very interesting connection to Adolf Hitler and Nazis.
Worth a watch if you like horror movies.

I finally got to see this flick. It's a must-watch! Magi has a very strong story and engrossing plot. I love the slow burner horror films and this was definitely one of those types of horror films. Stamm hits on Christian & Babylonian beliefs concerning the origin of the Devil, his demons, and God. i hate it when people spoil movies so I don't want to tell you whole story.
What i did not expect was to REALLY enjoy this film. This is not a jump scare movie There's a small amount of gore that it's't very over the top, but along with the death scenes, they prove to be very effective.
But the suspense of Magi was fantastic and its weird but You believe the story. yes,really It'll give you something to think about and it'll make you believe that perhaps, demons DO exist. The rest of the movie was very very fresh and new. There were enough turns and twists to keep you going and a nice amount of creepiness. It's the type of horror that gets under your skin and chills your blood. One of the best films, horror or not ,in recent memory.
before seeing this movie you should know What is the difference between angels, Jinns and devils? The JINN are beings living on earth in a world parallel to mankind.They are physically invisible from man as their description suggests. Through their powers of flying and invisibility, the JINNS are the chief component in occult activities. Therefore, Voodoo, Black magic, Witchcraft and Mediums can all be explained through the world of the JINNS. Likewise, so can the illusions and feats of magicians. so think about these words; Magic & Magi...! It was a clever plot with plenty of suspense and I never would've guessed the ending, which was great, surprising and memorable! It stays on your mind for days after. I recommend this to those who are into supernatural horror with a demonic possession backdrop. Magi is certainly worth seeing if you are a fan of the genre.

The plot.
Olivia, A New York-based journalist travels to Turkey when she receives news that her sister Marla is pregnant.
Marla recently ended a relationship but decides to keep the baby and that's when sinister things begin to occur.
This movie is a mess.
From the first frame, I wasn't sure if I should take it seriously or as a lampoon. Unfortunately i believe it was meant to be taken seriously.
There's not logic whatsoever to the movie. It rambles and makes no sense. Baldwin and Madsen who are in it for 10 seconds a piece obviously need the money. SAD.
The bulk of the movie is all talking and no action, peppered with ominous music here and there. Again, makes no sense.
It's a train wreck

A sober production from the director. he has the knack, the edge and the content without the craziness, intensity and shocks that his other movies delivered in the past.
I do recommend this movie if you like religious-occult themed horror films. It's very well directed and written by Hasan Karacadag who has directed so many successful Turkish horror films such as dabbe saga.
Supernatural possession or a murder or a crazy cult or just lies?
Script was nicely layout. The movie is loosely based on the real life (...and some true historical events) about occultism of Adolf Hitler. The story itself is quite good and different. I really enjoyed the horror drama aspect of the movie...The drama keep me in suspense.
The roles are well played by all of the actors. Most are very convincing. I like Michael Madsen and I'm so glad to see him in a Turkish film.He is a real legend! Based on real stuff is always the best and this was...Nice Tie into the struggle between evil and faith.Smart and well done, this is not your average horror film. Still, after watching it, it is fun to review the actual events etc. Watch this one. Great story line, masterful acting, and outstanding effects.
