Please, please, some­one help me! What have they done to the plot? What changes have been made? Why is there a Nazim and no Vizier? Why is there sud­denly a Sheik being a men­tor to the Prince? What is the plot for the movie? It’s totally dif­fer­ent from the game…!

‘Nizam’ is the Vizier. They changed the name for some reason.
