This movie attempts to perpetuate the myth that the core of Islam is all about peace and love, on a plane with Christianity. The second tenant of this erroneous mind set is that Islam has been hijacked by a few radicals. This, of course is not the case. The other myth that may be foisted on the unsuspecting is a poor caricature of Christianity. Both religions are grossly misrepresented. It is hard to escape the feeling throughout the move that the viewer is being "re-educated" rather than entertained.

Good movie. But what's is scary is as US Citizens we often want to judge what we know little about in one broad brush stroke. If that's the case all Christians would follow the mind set of the KKK or the White Christian Conference. Not a movie for people stuck in mind locks

The movie and message was well delivered. Storyline was suspenseful and the ending definite surprise. Moved by the message no matter if you are muslim or christian sin is sin.
