Jon Espino
The film keeps everything light, and doesnt dare to fully immerse us in the true darkness we know exists. ( Read More )
-
David Parkinson
There is so little political depth and dramatic tension in the leaden script that the subversive aspect of Ritchie and Pintos platonic partnership is almost negligible. ( Read More )
-
David Noh
Quite bold in its depiction of Iranian repression and sometimes visually striking, unfortunately the script by Jon Croker is a thin assemblage of cliches, with characterizations that are uniformly skin deep. ( Read More )
-
Wendy Ide
Loosely based on the life of Iranian dancer Afshin Ghaffarian, this flat footed drama about the transformative power of art is crippled by earnestness and clunky allegory. ( Read More )

Graham Fuller
Afshin helps her kick her deadly habit cold turkey a melodramatic episode the movie doesnt need. ( Read More )
