The significant role of movies in disseminating information and creating images of the real life is totally irrefutable. With the development of film production, critical and professional recognitions of films have not yet been developed along with popular recognition of films. This study is intended to investigate the image of Muslims represented in post 9/11 American movies through a semio-pragmatic approach based on the multimodal analysis of the selected films. Chandler's categories of codes and Fiske's semiotic model are adopted in a qualitative method of analysis to uncover ideological and social (mis)representation of Muslims in American Cinema. Thus, this study contributes, in a modest way, to suggesting a systematic approach to the study of western films in order to appreciate and evaluate their communicative and aesthetic impact as a powerful mass medium using semiotic/pragmatic practices.
