Prince

Horrible and irritating action movie. The trailers are inspiring and the music is good too, but the execution is too clichéful and the movie is full of classical and clichéful dialogues. The effects used in the movie are of fare below average quality, and almost all CGI effects remind you of the first time such effects came. Actually, the effects in Hollywood movies from 70-80’s are better than this one. Simply waste of time.

Imran Hosein: Dreams in Islam - A Window to Truth and To The Heart

Interesting book about the role of dreams in Islam. The author provides several examples of how dreams have provided guidance throughout the history of the different Islamic Prophets. In addition, did you know that the belief in dreams is actually 1/46 part of the prophet hood?

A must read for every Muslim, and also those who liked other books from this author.

Imran Hosein: The Gold Dinar and Silver Dirham - Islam and the Future of Money

Interesting book about the monetary system in the world today, and how it conflicts with the Islamic sharia by the references from Qur’an and Ahadith’s.

A must read for every Muslim, and also those who liked The Arrivals or similar series.

Imran Hosein: Jerusalem in the Qur’an

Interesting book about the prophesied destiny of the city Jerusalam at the End of Time. The main sources are Qur’an and Ahadith’s. An Islamic View of Gog and Magog in the Modern Age actually had a number of references to this book, which triggered my interest for this book.

A must read for every Muslim, and also those who liked The Arrivals or similar series.

Imran Hosein: An Islamic View of Gog and Magog in the Modern World

A very interesting book which has also inspired the “The Arrivals” and similar series, which are available at the internet (i.e. YouTube). The Islamic scholar, Imran Hosein, presents his interpretations of Quran and Ahadith’s and argue that the prophesied release of Gog and Magog actually happened during the time of Prophet Muhammed (PBUH). Furthermore, the world we see it today is actually the result of the actions of Gog and Magog.

A must read for every Muslim, and also those who liked The Arrivals or similar series.

The Prestige

After watching Inception, I was really in mood to watch another Christopher Nolan-classic, so I watched this one, again. This movie is simply fantastic and amazing, and you’ll notice more of its amazingness if you watch it second time.

Rating: 5 of 6

Import Eksport

A must watch with my wife. I basically like this movie, and the reason isn’t the relationship between me and this movie :). But after watching it two times earlier, not everything is that interesting anymore.

Inception

Interesting, fascinating and complicated movie from the director of The Dark Knight, The Prestige and Batman Begins (Christopher Nolan). This movie has received good critics almost all over with good reasons, and therefore I had huge expectations before watching it. As mentioned, the movie is fascinating and complicated with good execution and great visuals, and it’s the complication which has reduced the rating of it. Not everything is understandable when you watch it for the first time, but it can happen that you’ll understand more when you watch it second time and then also improve its rating.

The story deals “in a world where technology exists to enter the human mind through dream invasion, a highly skilled thief is given a final chance at redemption which involves executing his toughest job till date”.

Frustrerte Fruer / Desperate Housewives – Season 5

Basically good series, but I didn’t found this season that interesting as the previous seasons. Every season shows you more in depth of the characters in addition to the evolving story line, and in this season the makers are close to the limit of how much in depth you can show the characters before the stuff simply gets boring. Perhaps it’s time to close down the show or find new script writers?

Kites

Boring movie with Hrithik Roshan and Barbara Mori (Mexican actress and model) as the lead pair. The movie tells a love story, which has been told several times earlier. This time, the execution is somehow different; the movie is made in US and is also meant towards Western public by making two version of movie, one for the Indian and desi market, and the second for the Western market. The execution is professionally done, but as many similar love stories, the story has lots of clichés and holes. Therefore, it had nothing particularly to offer.
