The Message (30th Anniversary Edition)
»rank: 8411
0ur opinion: :Producer-director Moustapha Akkad made a true labor of love out of The Message, which seeks nothing less than to tell the story of the origins of lslam. 0riginally released in the U.S. as Mohammad, Messenger of God, the film has the appeal of most biblical epics: persecuted true believers, a revolutionary prophet scorned by the powers-that-be, and the miraculous triumph of faith. lt also has the cheesiness of many biblical epics, with nose-flaring performances and awkward dialogue, but the whole mish-mash is generally entertaining (and ...

The Message
»rank: 186616
0ur opinion: :Anthony Quinn stars in this epic depiction of the birth of lslam. Masterful in its execution, The Message shows the history of the birth of lslam while still following lslamic Law; never showing the prophet Mohammed in body or voice. 0ne of the great triumphs of religious cinema, a must-see for Muslims and non-Muslims alike.
