It's pretty slow paced and isn't action packed at all which was what I expected heading in. I was excited to see it but it didn't seem to be as good from the people who watched it early which lowered my expectations.The movie's all about story telling of a djinn's former lifetimes. It's definitely one of the more unique films released this year, it's filled with grand and vibrant visuals, it shows you his memories as they're narrated and the whole movie ekes magic because if it. As far as djinn stories go it's not as original but the way it's told makes it feel like something new, sets it apart from Disney's Aladdin.In the second half of the movie it moves away from the magical ambience and becomes a romance between the two protagonists that have only loneliness in common. Idris Elba and Tilda Swinton gave great performances; however as the whole premise of the movie is storytelling, it does lack depth and emotional pull which could've elevated it from just a good movie to a great one. Because for something that only wants to tell stories, it's a little disappointing that the visuals were the most captivating thing about it. It also feels much longer than it is, I don't think it should have been paced quicker but they should have just given the audience some more depth or thrill.It's a very zen movie, it doesn't flactuate, no highs and lows which makes it quite anticlimactic and movies like that are rarely memorable. It tells stories that happened over 3000 years, that's a lot to unpack in such a short time so it makes sense they couldn't unravel it all, but that unfortunately left me with the feeling it had so much more to offer. Little sparks of something special that never came to be.
