George Miller has only 11 feature films on his directors resume which becomes all the more remarkable that the movies that he’s made outside of the four Mad Max movies and two Happy Feet have been widely diverse. From the fantasy Witches of Eastwick to the grounded Lorenzo’s Oil. He’s even helmed Babe 2 PIg in the City. Now sandwiched in the middle of his newly revived Mad Max franchise he’s placed a romantic fantasy ode to storytelling 3000 Years of Longing. The movie is based on the novella The Djinn and the Nightingale by A S Byatt about a narratologist who unwittingly unleashes a djinn. It’s hard to be a wish granting being to someone who is well versed in the mechanics of stories involving wishes, there isn’t a single one that isn’t a cautionary tale. That leads to the Djinn telling his tale of longing, his search for love that takes him throughout the years starting with King Solomon and his romance with the Queen of Sheba that goes badly and then Suleiman that…also goes wrong. George Miller has teamed up with some familiar faces like cinematographer John Seale and composer Junkie XL who have worked with Miller before on Lorenzo’s Oil for Seale as well as Fury Road for both Seale and Junkie XL.

Obviously the person reading your script hasn’t seen the movie, because they insist on mispronouncing the lead character’s name repeatedly….God, your videos suck.

I don't know if it was mentioned...but did anyone notice the djinn sounded a lot like the weird guy in the long coat with the pink collar. He even walked funny like him. It was after he turned to dust and she wished for him to speak...I think she was tricked.

@nataliejo336 7 ай бұрын

So many Mad Max references in this review….when the movie had plenty of mystery in itself. I thought the same thing as you….he sounded exactly like the guy in the long coat. I believe they are one and the same.

12:50, 2 different Solomons! The one wooing Queen of Sheba is the Biblical King Solomon (Shlomoh Hamelekh). The one mentioned later is the Ottoman Sultan Suleyman the Magnificent (Suleyman Muhteṣem).

I've been to the Pera Palace hotel and seen the room where Agatha Christie stayed, but they must have renovated because the hotel was like stepping into a stunning 1930s movie. I know the stories about the Djinn. I thought the true story of Solomon and the Queen of Sheba was better than that portrayed in the movie, but the movie version was still fabulous. Maybe the true story is another film for another day. I thought the movie crew did a good job.

I liked the movie...George Miller is a great director... Hope to see more like this... Mad Max movies were great grew up watching them but now that I am older I feel them to be to violent... The music in this movie was also great... It was said that King Solomon had an army of Djinn that fought for him alongside his elite armed forces... Army of the Djinn might be an interesting sequel but again I feel it would be to violent... More peaceful stories of the Djinn would be something that i would enjoy... ☮🔥🧞‍♂
