Movie Reviews

Boston Globe - 10/10 by Jay CarrDeeper and richer in humanity than all but a handful of the American films released this year.
Christian Science Monitor - 10/10 by David SterrittThe tale is simply told but stunningly photographed and superbly acted in the best tradition of modern Iranian cinema.
San Francisco Chronicle - 10/10 by Mick LaSallePresents us with characters of such humanity and dignity that it begins to seem obscene that until now we haven't exactly given all that much thought to the Kurds.
Chicago Tribune - 9/10 by Michael WilmingtonShowing us a world through a child's eyes, A Time for Drunken Horses speaks so truthfully and well that it breaks the heart and scars the conscience.
Dallas Observer - 9/10 by Bill GalloIt's difficult to imagine a more eloquent tribute.
Film.com - 9/10 by Peter BrunetteIt simultaneously wows you with the stark beauty of its images, a beauty that leads to another, related kind of truth that is equally crucial. It's not to be missed.
Entertainment Weekly - 9/10 by Lisa SchwarzbaumThe nonprofessional cast of Bahman Ghobadi's remarkable, slow, rough edged feature reveals a simple, piercing grimness and determination framed by the gray, icy landscape of Iranian Kurdistan.
Portland Oregonian - 9/10 by Kim MorganA profoundly anxious picture that from its first frame holds you, clenched, never able to let go, even after its unresolved coda.
Baltimore Sun - 8/10 by Chris KaltenbachThe real hero here is Ghobadi, whose love and respect for the culture in which he was raised shines through every frame.
Variety - 8/10 by Deborah YoungIt is all the more heart-wrenching for being realistic. Its portrait of child labor brooks no sentimentality and no cliches.
