The Physician

One of my favorite go to movies of all time. Love everything about it, It has humor. Love. Romance. Empathy, Loyalty, Persistence, Humility, A burning desire to learn and help Plus some historical facts, Love, Love, Love This movie… Wish I could buy it In digital form…

An epic production with sword battles, the onset of Islam and the first appendectomy. At times the action slows down. Ben Kingsley as always very good. Equally successful Tom Payne, as the eponymous physician and Stellan Skarsgard as the healer who is left behind.

Filme: O Físico Assistido: 29-11-23 Elenco: @benkingsley.ig @thetompayne @emmarealrigby @stellanskarsgardofficial @elyas_mbarek Modelo: #drama #suspense #medieval Duração: 1h 59m Ano: 2013 Minha opinião: Um filme que se passa na era medieval, onde tabus e religião politica era uma grande barreira, onde pode perder sua vida. Onde cientistas, médicos poderiam ser confundidos com obras satânicas e ser queimado. Onde temos o jovem Rob Cole vê sua mãe morrer de doença e passa a andar com Barbeiro que vende aqueles xaropes "milagrosos" que eram verdadeira mentiras. Porem ele conhece a fala em questão de saúde. E isso abre para ele um mind set que ele ouve falar de um local onde existe uma escola para cuidar de pessoas e operar. E assim ele sai embusca de Ibn Sina e encontra na Pérsia. Ele não se diz Cristão pois havia guerras. E assim ele entra na escola, onde vai se tornando um conhecedor da alquimia e a possibilidade de cirurgias em momento que tudo isso era um tabu. Até quando chega ao final com guerra que destrói tudo. E ele retorna para a Europa e reencontra o Barbeiro. Uma proposta nova para um filme, feito com inteligência e que traz a historia de épocas que só ouvimos em livros de historia. Roteiro e enredo muito bons. Boas atuações dos atores. Vale apena assistir? Sim pela historia. E pela era medieval. E de saber que várias guerras que vivemos hoje, já havia na época. Nota: 7

Amazing movie! it was fun to see the main character grow and evolve. The medical aspects are interesting and very believable and the time period and geological situations are also really well written!

If you haven't read the book, it'll seem like a solid movie with plenty of action. However, for the ones who have experienced the whole journey (which is highly ignored) of Rob to pursue his dreams, the film has taken a different path from the one shown in the book, omitting chapters and stories that, for me, would have been essential for a better result of the movie. Nevertheless, I got to say, it has a superb cast and production which also deserves some recognition.

An exciting, brutal and original story of determination art and way to success

An enjoyable watch. Visually stunning. The only slight irk I had was that when the main character travelled to the middle East, they could all speak English. I know it makes for easy watching, but I feel his journey wouldn't have been so smooth there was a language barrier. But having said that, I was grateful for no subtitles since it is a long film. I enjoyed the passion for medicine and the trouble the main character gets himself in to, plus there's a love interest.

15/20...................................................................................................................................
