Movie Reviews

Irish Times - 8/10 by Tara BradySahar Dowlatshahi, an actor who can emote with just gaze and eyebrows, beautifully complements [writer-director Behnam Behzad's] nuanced approach.
Time Out - 8/10 by Trevor JohnstonLike Asghar Farhadi's acclaimed recent movies, this is a story about middle-class Tehran and the layers of conflict that evolve out of seemingly ordinary circumstances.
Little White Lies - 8/10 by Amy BowkerA thoughtful meditation on female agency in contemporary Tehran.
Irish Independent - 8/10 by Paul Whitington[it's about] a depressingly familiar theme in Iranian society: the side-lining of women by a bull-headed, retrograde theocracy. But Behzadi's direction, and Dwolatshahi's subtle, elegant performance, make Inversion a lot less dryly didactic than that.
Film Ireland Magazine - 8/10 by Stephen PorzioInversion feels like a neo-realist movie. The settings appear tangible and authentic. The actors disappear into their characters. There is no soundtrack, just the noise of radios and ringtones.
Sunday Independent (Ireland) - 6/10 by Aine O'ConnorTehran's poor air quality is a defining issue and a metaphor for the oppression of women in Behnam Behzadi's understated but effective film.
The List - 6/10 by Hannah McGillIf its literal context is specific to Iran, the film also speaks to all of us about what happens when what we want clashes with what is expected of us.
Guardian - 6/10 by Peter BradshawIt is an involving story, but I found it sometimes a little dessicated, and the ending rather shies away from the intractable dilemmas that had been so painful.
Financial Times - 6/10 by Nigel AndrewsBehzadi's humanist miniaturism is so subtle - so "ordinary" on the surface - that at times it could pass for soap opera. But the characters are intertwined with a lethal craft.
Radio Times - 6/10 by David ParkinsonSetting several scenes in claustrophobic interiors that are cocooned by a choking haze and the din of electronic devices, Behzadi adheres closely to the conventions of Iranian feminist drama.
