Popcorn Culture - Review: Three Thousand Years Of Longing

Just the synopsis alone is enough to intrigue: Tilda Swinton plays a scholar of mythology, who finds a djinn who offers her three wishes in exchange for his freedom. When she's sceptical about making the wishes, the djinn tells her fantastical stories of his past in an effort to convince her. Oh, and the djinn is played by Idris Elba. If that's not enough, the movie is directed by the always surprising George Miller, back at the helm for the first time in seven years. We review the movie. 

Produced by: Lee Chwi Lynn, Sharmilla Ganesan, Arvindh Yuvaraj
