Well, i guess we must understand in watching this movie that it shows that there are all kinds of people in all faiths. I didn't look at Isalm in a bad way after seeing it. Look at the main character; he was a good hearted Muslim and was doing a good service to his brother(or close friend) by going back to Afghanistan to get his brother away from those extremest. And he had a great family. You can see multiple cultural views in this movie.
I deal with a lot of different cultural views in my family. My wife is south Indian, one of my aunts is Pakistani, My brothers wife is Saudi, and I am Italian, there is also Swedish, German, Bosnian, Greek, Turkish, African American, Afghani, and Isreali in my family, we are all Christian with the exception of my brothers wife(Saudi) who claims to be a Muslim, but doesn't really practice. I like to see movies that are reall and don't cover everything up.
I watch a lot of Hindi movies too. I haven't seen any movies with full Muslim content. Is there any? what are some good titles? They have to have english subtitles though, I don't understand to much Arabic and or Farsi yet.
God bless.
