Stop historical debates , it's a movie data base ... !!

Warning: Spoilers
I just watched the movie yesterday , as a movie it's fantastic , maybe a match to Hollywood movies of same genre . However , most of reviews here are discussing the movie from a historical view forgetting that any period of time in history is seen by different ways by everyone according to their belief , So, as a Muslim I see Mohammed Al Faith as a great man , leader and a Sultan , others (I mean people of other European countries who were in wars with the Ottomon empire) will see him as a Barbaric killer , so , let's put history aside and talk about the movie from a cinematic view ... Story is good for me , I believe that the content historically is correct ,so, I like it and I'm proud of Mohammed AL Faith as a Muslim conqueror and somehow the true founder of the Islamic Caliphate of Ottomon empire . Music is good ... Acting is very good and I didn't know before (as Egyptian) that the Turkish actors are that talented . Visuals and direction are absolutely STUNNING , if i didn't know before watching that it's a Turkish movie , I would say that it's a Hollywood production ...

Finally , please put politics and history aside and enjoy the movie as a movie , and if you can't stand the historical mistakes(from your point of view) simply , don't watch it .!!
