Persian stories

Rating: 7/10 (21 February 2013)

From the start, the film introduce the audience to the magical Persian atmosphere. The landscapes full of sand and sun help to held that all through out the film. Fantastic costumes and nice cities, accompany the great performances from the actors, who are keeping up the excitement. The action scenes are many, however they make the prince look supernatural rather than just a boy from the streets. Fortunately the romance is not too much, limited only to a few scenes, and does not over covers the whole story, which is about the sand of time, given to the men kind by the gods. Even the end is surprising, making a twist by returning to the one of the first scenes of the movie. All in all, an interesting film, with lots of action and Persian atmosphere.
