Movie Reviews

CultureCatch - 10/10 by Brandon JudellNot as lyrically overwhelming as Ghobadi's previous works, A Time for Drunken Horses (2000) and Turtles Can Fly (2004), the politics of this offering more than make up for that lack.
Birmingham Post - 10/10 by Graham YoungA fine, optimistic companion piece for the Irish film Once, which won Glen Hansard the best song Oscar in 2008.
Total Film - 10/10 by Philip KempThe mid-section drags slightly, but the cumulative effect is powerful, revealing what it's like to live in a society where even well-behaved kids can be crushed by the dictates of arbitrary, heavy-handed authority.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 9/10 by Dennis SchwartzThere's a real life-threatening risk being in this pic.
Boston Globe - 9/10 by Ty BurrWhenever a band plays in “Persian Cats,’’ the director treats us to a fast, vibrant montage of Iranian faces and street scenes -- as if to say, look, this is who we REALLY are.
Compuserve - 9/10 by Harvey S. KartenOf special interest to viewers who are into international politics or indie rock.
MovieFreak.com - 9/10 by Sara Michelle FettersShot on location, filled with real people portraying themselves, Ghobadi takes risks other filmmakers would run screaming from, his film oozing with a validity it never would have achieved otherwise.
Minneapolis Star Tribune - 9/10 by Colin CovertA vibrant, engaging portrait of a generation bursting with repressed creativity.
Washington Post - 9/10 by Ann HornadayGhobadi has emerged as a filmmaker whose gift for poetic realism was only equaled by an unerring sense of precisely when and how to break the viewer's heart.
NYC Movie Guru - 8/10 by Avi OfferGenuinely poignant, compelling and unflinchingly honest with just the right balance of dramatic tension and comic relief
