I had some bigger expectations from this movie. That's because I had a small role, Protestant Muslim at 1hour 21 plus another scene. I am always terribly sincere and objective, so this is my opinion: I did not read the book but I understood the dialogue perfectly (most of the others who wrote reviews here they are complaining about the bad sound and the incomprehensible English - well, advantage me, I've learned English all alone, watching tens of thousands of films and translating them in my home country, Romania, for 17 years...) The film is neither stupid nor great, it is moderate to not say mediocre. The image is excellent (Felix Wiedemann), and the music also (Ruth Barrett). The actors' performance did not impress me at all. They are just... acting. Overall, the movie is boring, it has nothing spectacular, the story is trivial and uninteresting. Worse and awkward scene is also the most important in the film, when Farzad Akhtar(Roshan Seth) is shooting Jerry Quinn (Barry Aird).
