Sometimes the best thing you can do for someone you care for is to set them free.

Alithea is a really mature woman in mind and careful with her words. She knows that if her presence in a man's life will make his life a bit unbearable for him,she will be willing to let him go. Cling to nothing,she's aware of the other aspect of wishes and the consequences attached to it. This is self awareness and willingness to be open to new experiences.

This movie was good, it's romance at its core and it's told from the perspective of a djinn which is somewhat new, the story telling is also done masterfully well.

djinn has one of the most tragic love encounters ever, glad he found love again after all these years.

This movie is nice , I like that the story was narrated in the perspective of the immortal and allowed us to feel how living a long life n imprisonment affect an immortal .. I also like that we got to see different eras n realms ...thank you for the recap 😍

One thing you got incorrect. The Djinn did not replace her breakfast, Alithea left it by the door in the hotel room. He produced the SAME tray, he produced for Zefir, his last love and the woman who imprisoned him in the bottle that was chosen by our Heroine. :) LOVE this Movie. :) Anyone notice, the Galactic Beings in Queen of Sheba's Court?!? ;)

That's actually a really nice love story and has an interesting ending. Clearly they both like each other but, they don't work as a couple. It's like that rare instance where a couple breaks up but, actually remain friends afterwards.

A deep story and well executed, to truly care about someone you must love them more than you love yourself.

it's weird. i saw this in theater and i liked it don't get me wrong, but this little recap video actually made me understand it more 😅

I went to see this in the theater. I was the only person in there. I liked the first and second act but the ending made me upset. I felt like it could have had a bigger climax.

The film makes several references to the fictional Shahrazad Airlines. The name homages the fabled storyteller Scheherazade from the "1001 Arabian Nights", who told her king a fanciful story each night.

I know idris elba was mystical

I'm only 3 minutes in and I've decided this is what I'm watching tonight. Movies like this arnt usually my cup of tea, but I trust the staff and personally, I just need am escape right now. I've surprised myself many times with movies I passed on. I even have a list of movies I refuse to rewatch. 2 of which are Marley and Me(I can't even get past the first 20 pages of the book it's based on.) I'll never watch that a second time. Also Seven Pounds. That movie came out at a time in my life where suicide was on the table. Even reinforced my idea was that he donated his organs premeditated before it. How his brother was was how my brother was. Also a weird one, That Awkward Moment. Really one of the only romcoms from the male perspective. Was absolutely refreshing. I like to send women home with the homework of watching it to see if there are any red flags to her. Most women turn it off when they see its about the male perspective lmao. Some other gems on the list but these ones stand out as a firm immediate "no" to the notion of watching them. Adamant on it. I'm not crying that hard again. Wanna see me cry let's watch the finale of scrubs, the real finale.

What a lovely film! Thank you for making this video. Cheers

Heimdal and the Ancient one. What a combo!

One of the best movies I’ve seen in some time. I love these actors. Tilda and Idris are second to none. Also the graphics are just incredible.

A story of wishes that's not a cautionary tale? How refreshing.

I've been waiting for this.. thanks 😊

After I saw this movie I could speak for some time. It's an incredible love story, the longing is real. Truly moving

The stories were great and a bit nuanced but them just telling stories in a room then falling in love feels a bit rushed and forced.

I have to admit... I was expecting it to be a "B" rated movie with an "A" cast. However, it definitely hit the check mark for the genre of drama/romance.

The director of this movie, George Miller, sure has got a pretty eclectic range of films… His dystopian wasteland action flicks (MAD MAX series, FURY ROAD) - CGI hybrid films (HAPPY FEET 1 & 2) - live action talking animal pics (BABE 1 & 2) - and surreal fantasies with this film (3000 YEARS OF LONGING) and WITCHES OF EASTWICK.

Finding feelings in stories is the best way i've ever heard it put.

Wow. Awesome story . Love it.. # recap awesome 👍

This is an amazing movie! Thank you.

This really helped thanks a lot!

I love these movie recaps. It allows me to know if I'd want to watch the movie in its entirety. I'd love to watch all of this one..

Yea! I finally got to watch the movie! I've been wanting to watch it since I saw the commercial for it on TV. Oh well this is better than nothing!

Good! Keep it up i rather watch these videos then watching the actual movie lol

You're a lifesaver... Thank you so much

This looks like a good movie, I wish the name was in the description so I could look it up and watch the whole thing.

I'm definitely going to watch the full film now

wow, there is whole recaps on the history of the Ottoman Empire. Hurrem was one of the most powerful concubines in Ottoman history, (she became Suliman's wife). Kosem was also very famous queen from the Ottoman Empire. Very good reads if anyone is interested. There is also a very famous Turkish tv show about these famous women.

being loved is better than loving someone

Thanks for saving me the time. Nice movie

I really did not expect to like this movie but I did like it a lot and it was unique and strange and the music score was amazing i felt transported.

wish for the power to enchant an object into doing whatever you say it to directly while touching it or think about what you want the object to do while holding it. That way u could enchant let's say a piece of rock to go back to the time before something bad happened or enchant other objects for extra precaution I'm surprised the main character didn't think about this (but tbh I got the idea from the book not myself)

Interesting movie....thanks for the recap

Interesting concept! I liked it alot thank you

i watch the whole movie myself after seeing a little bit of this video and i honestly cried bro its such a good movie

Thank you💞

How come I never hear about all of these GREAT movies????

I had to pause this to go watch the movie and I loved it 🥰

- That was a really wholesome genie story, good stuff!

I really enjoyed this movie! I know it didn't do well, but I really did enjoy it. Also.........he had a kid???

I miss just great movies that take you to a world you never dreamed of or a ride of emotins.😉

A jinn story with a happy ending. She should have wished for him to have perfect health as long as the relationship they had remained intact. That way they could be married and stay together.

This story sounds like those childhood story they would tell about jinns and speaking animals coming in contact with humans becoming friends or falling love

I didn't even know this was a movie. It looks really good

I really appreciate the way you explain the movie. Love from Nepal🇳🇵

I actually just watched this movie last night and it was better than I thought it was gonna be.

Its gonna be a good day after a new vid

Great recap. Kindly upload that music background..I would like to have it.

This film can easily be a companion piece to 1001 Nights, AKA Les 1001 Nuits (1990). Indeed, both films are a reimagining of the Sheherazade tales strained through a modern filter. In both films, the principal characters relay a series of Middle Eastern stories full of magic, mystery, love, and intrigue. However, the earlier French film was comical in tone and structure, as the principal characters used a series of contrivances to jump backward and forward through time. This film, loosely based on a short story collection, the Djinn and the Nightingale's eye by novelist A. S. Byatt (1994), was more serious and had a romance novel motif. The principal character relayed the experiences of his long life through a series of fanciful tales. That said, the French film, which is almost lost to history, is notable as being the first feature credit of the lovely Catherine Zeta-Jones. She not only performed many of her own stunts but also did several nude scenes. This film, on the other hand, was far less kinetic. Relying instead on Mrs. Swinton's quiet performance as a person dented by life and reluctant to open themselves up emotionally to a potential new lover. Even though the romantic partner was a supernatural creature. (☉‿☉✿)

it was a beautiful and carefully structured story.

watched this in the cinemas! at first i was confused but turns out it was all good.

Hes gorgeous. Really great actors in that movie.

Hello love the channel

Even though I just watched the recap I still want to actually watch this movie

Well that turned out to be a sweet story

Great channel

Trying to figure out why don’t you put the move title in the description!?

A very good movie. Highly recommended!

amazing movie I never heard about it thank you so much the explanation was amazing thank you

This actually makes me want to watch the movie I do appreciate the cast of actors in it really makes it seem like a interesting twist that they are a couple in the movie and along with it it’s it’s just pretty interesting to see and I do like how are you incorporates actual history I don’t think Solomon would’ve been as bad as they say he was it was just an ability he was granted by Allah

I actually loved the film, it's magic and stories nice stuff though the ending was lacking juice

Best movies o just watch yesterday

great video

Why do i feel this is based on real event...maybe somewhere i want to believe we humans aren't the only one here.❤

"The more flesh the bigger the pleasure." Ahhaha

Intriguing recap. What would you wish for?🤔

Need more of that stuff

Who else just wanted her to wish for millions of dollars or smth useful 😭

*Interesting film. Lots of what ifs.*

the movie was something else but the storytelling.. it was amazing

Claiming to want solitude but secretly wishes companionship. This modern mental illness is quite tragic since the cure is so simple.

I love East & Bull ....Ist beautiful

Sounds like a wonderful film.

6:42 AMEN 🤣

What a remarkable movie!

This was a beautiful movie

This is so beautiful

why is it that everybody wastes wishes? it's not that hard to find a way to word your wishes to get everything you want without wishing everything you want.

How come I have never seen this movie? I must be living under a rock

Really good movie

Nice one

This movie is Something very different, and still succeeding so spectacularly

That was awesome

One of the best movies man I promise good damn movie

So freaking beautiful

JUST MAKE A WISH LADY! GEEZ.

I know its a little too early but is it possible you could do Barbarian next?

Ahh.. Tilda Swinton. I always have the urge to listen to Radiohead's album, OK Computer. I don't know why.

How can one remain calm after seeing a jin . 😳

I must be missing something.. I really like these recaps and usually, it's a movie I haven't seen and would like to watch... But I can never find the title of the movie anywhere so I can go watch it. Are you including the title and I'm just not seeing it?

*sighs* put the movie in the description please.

Heimdall and The Sorcerer Supreme ... this is a good Marvel Movie

For the first time, I wish I watched the full movie instead of the recap

I still want to know the name of the music in the backround!! :c

can’t wait to see it
