Leave your thoughts about Jinn.
| VarietyAmy NicholsonJinn is the rare coming-of-age story that doesn’t simply pat kids on the head and tell them they just need to love themselves. Instead, Mu’min holds her characters accountable for the way they discombobulate each other’s lives, while giving them the space to do better, if they can figure out what better is. |
| The Hollywood ReporterKeith UhlichJinn consistently lets down its premise and performers with a by-the-numbers-at-best screenplay that triple-underlines all of its forward-thinking themes. |
| Washington PostMark JenkinsIntriguingly, Jinn makes a plea for understanding and cooperation between Muslims, Jews and Christians. Disappointingly, writer-director Ajmal Zaheer Ahmad does all too good a job burying that message within a blustering supernatural thriller. |
| Los Angeles TimesGary GoldsteinMagical swords, evil doppelgangers, a sexy black muscle car, an unremarkable final showdown and lots of first-draft dialogue factor into this thankfully brief (about 80 minutes plus end credits) frightfest. |
| Shadow and ActAramide TinubuMore than anything the film shines because it isn't about the trauma or pain that Black women experience. Jinn is about identity, those beautiful, carefree days of youth, and how in a split second, one thing that is so deeply important can be replaced. |
| Boston GlobePeter KeoughWith its awful acting, terrible dialogue, and laughable special effects, "Jinn" strains for the hapless genius of Ed Wood, but ends up just another bad movie. |
| The DissolveChris KlimekA deeply dopey, distinctly not-terrifying, unintentionally hilarious supernatural thriller. |
| The New York TimesNicolas RapoldMost of the time, this incoherent thriller resembles an overheated trailer for itself: a glaringly rough assembly of ill-staged computer-generated action sequences and portentous moments. |
| VarietyJoe Leydon[A] ponderously paced, needlessly convoluted and altogether unexceptional thriller. |
| User ReviewRobert SUsually I am not a fan of supernatural themes, but I saw this movie based on a friend's advice, and I was more than pleasantly surprised. Storyline was interesting, and besides a few transitional issues, I enjoyed the entire presentation. The special effects were a work of art, and i would recommend this movie to all. |
