THE PERSIAN VERSION
“The shocks come as quickly as the laughs as the film unspools a tale of life in a vastly different culture, and shows what it costs to chart one’s own course, especially as a woman in a deeply patriarchal, and deeply religious, society.” – Kilian Melloy, EDGE Media Network
DEATH ATHLETIC: A DISSIDENT ARCHITECTURE
“Death Athletic: A Dissident Architecture is an extremely one-sided documentary – more of a polemic, really – that will leave viewers cheering, angry or, if they’re not heavily invested in the national argument over guns, frightened.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies

“The Teachers’ Lounge pops like a kernel on a hot stove, and the explosion will make you question your every move in these fraught times.” –
“It manages to be both a scary serial-killer-on-the-loose movie and a high school comedy. It’s a difficult balancing act that they pull off with seeming ease.” –
“Eismayer joins other compelling gay military dramas we’ve seen lately, and ranks among the best of the genre.” –
“Nothing in Miranda’s Victim suggests that informing criminal defendants of their rights is a bad thing. What it does do is almost as revolutionary: it tells the story of Trish Weir, the then-18-year-old whom he attacked.” –
“Foe turns out to have very little to do with the scant science fiction trappings of the story. Instead, it’s about how difficult it is for two married people to stay together.”–
“Del Toro, who worked on the script crafted by director Grant Singer and Benjamin Brewer, has a meaty role that – like much of the cast – plays him against type.” –
“The way Bernal bares his soul for the camera in that scene captures the viewers’ hearts and makes Cassandro real.”
