Moviegoers are saying

This ambitious Muslim-produced animated film about kids time-traveling to meet Islamic scholars has viewers torn between admiration for its groundbreaking representation and frustration with its rough production values.

I respect the message being shared and the intention of informing children about Arabian history, but there is a looong way to go. The plot is wack, the ending is predictable, and the animation feels amateurish at best. Why’d my mother make me watch this again?
