You know what film is an 8/10 or a 9/10? Wolf of Wallstreet. You know what film is not? Magi.Yet, judging by all of the high star ratings and glowing reviews, you'd think this film may win an Oscar. Wrong. Fake reviews....they are plaguing IMDb.Many of these reviewers have ONLY reviewed ONE FILM (This film!)Note to fake reviewers: at least pump in a few reviews for other films so you can appear to be a film fan and not affiliated with the film you are reviewing.If anyone involved in the film (aka the fake reviewers) is reading this, please take note: YOU ARE RUINING IMDb! It has become a biased, fictitious ratings-land where the average consume cannot get an objective review of a film.My suggestion: move along to a film that stands on its own merit and doesn't need to trick you into viewing.
... View MoreStarring Michael Madsen, Stephen Baldwin, Brianne Davis and Lucie Pohl, "Magi" is directed by Turkish director Hasan Karacadağ. The horror film recounts the adventures of American journalist Olivia Watkins who comes to Istanbul following the murder of her sister.I enjoy this, The movie overall is pretty good, but I'm always a little cynical, and a big part of me wonders how closely this follows the facts of the true story.well directed, and does its best to maintain a spooky mood (but doesn't quite achieve that goal). If you are looking for cliché horror look elsewhere.If you're looking for blood and guts, look elsewhere. This film will grab your imagination and whipsaw your emotions into very dark places. Lucie Pohl is absolutely amazing as Olivia Watkins. Good acting. Special effects were overdone. Whether you're a believer in the supernatural or not, I thought it was interesting and scary at sometimes.
... View MoreFirst I have to say that I watched Dabbe 4-5-6 and we scared so bad at this films.Then we watched magi with 5 friends and we just laugh at this film.I have to say that this movie just made for money.Actors was good but topic was terrible and the effects.Film was includes some kind of sound effects that make us scare but there was not any action for scare and the film was too long we have waited too long for any action or something scary but there was not special things for scare we just wait for the end and I have to say that if people scare easily or more likely everything it can scare people but if you love horror Movies this not good for people who love scare movies.I will keep watching Hasan Karacag 's movies but this one was not good.
... View MoreI finally got to see this flick. It's a must-watch! Magi has a very strong story and engrossing plot. I love the slow burner horror films and this was definitely one of those types of horror films. Stamm hits on Christian & Babylonian beliefs concerning the origin of the Devil, his demons, and God. i hate it when people spoil movies so I don't want to tell you whole story.What i did not expect was to REALLY enjoy this film. This is not a jump scare movie There's a small amount of gore that it's't very over the top, but along with the death scenes, they prove to be very effective. But the suspense of Magi was fantastic and its weird but You believe the story. yes,really It'll give you something to think about and it'll make you believe that perhaps, demons DO exist. The rest of the movie was very very fresh and new. There were enough turns and twists to keep you going and a nice amount of creepiness. It's the type of horror that gets under your skin and chills your blood. One of the best films, horror or not ,in recent memory.before seeing this movie you should know What is the difference between angels, Jinns and devils? The JINN are beings living on earth in a world parallel to mankind.They are physically invisible from man as their description suggests. Through their powers of flying and invisibility, the JINNS are the chief component in occult activities. Therefore, Voodoo, Black magic, Witchcraft and Mediums can all be explained through the world of the JINNS. Likewise, so can the illusions and feats of magicians. so think about these words; Magic & Magi...! It was a clever plot with plenty of suspense and I never would've guessed the ending, which was great, surprising and memorable! It stays on your mind for days after. I recommend this to those who are into supernatural horror with a demonic possession backdrop. Magi is certainly worth seeing if you are a fan of the genre.
