9 / 10

One of the Best Adventures of 2014
In the Eleventh Century, in England, the mother of the boy Rob Cole has side sickness (appendicitis) and he foresees her death when he touches her. The orphan Rob is alone and he follows a traveling barber-surgeon (Stellan Skarsgård) that teaches him how to cure the needy. When the barber is blind with cataract, Rob Cole seeks out a Jewish physician that recovers the barber’s vision.

Rob Cole decides to learn medicine with the famous Ibn Sina (Ben Kingsley) in the distant Persia. Along his one-year journey, Rob makes a circumcision on himself and changes his name to Jesse Ben Benjamin, posing of Jewish to be accepted by Ibn Sina’s school in Isfahan. Further he falls in love with Rebecca (Emma Rigby) that is traveling to Isfahan in the same caravan to get married in a marriage of convenience. Jesse learns medicine with Ibn Sina while he performs forbidden experience with a corpse and has sex with Rebecca. When the mullahs betray the Shah Ala ad-Daula (Olivier Martinez) to the Seljuk, the lives of Ibn Sina, Jesse and their friends are deeply affected.

“The Physician” is one of the best adventures of 2014. The saga of gifted Rob Cole in his pursue for the knowledge of medicine in a primitive Middle Ages in Europe. Ben Kingsley is perfect as usual in the role of a wise scientist limited by the religion to explore his knowledge. My vote is nine.
