Even at that, I dare say most people won't miss even his best two movies in Terminator and Titanic.

All though, I can't ignore his technical achievements in film.

Even before that, when they were arguing about the bees over spaghetti, she was serious and you could tell she was really what he said she was. I also liked that satisfying pop at the end...
I'll try and see the original everyone keeps talking about.

It Was Just An Accident...... 8/10

Jafar Panahi delivers an intense thriller. At first, it seems slow and you're wondering what you're looking at. Still, you're left guessing cos it teases you in a way you want to see how it ends. Well, it doesn't take long for things to truly kick off and from there it takes you on a wild ride of revenge, h@te, conflicting morals.
It is an emotional rollercoaster, cos you're left with feeling finishing off one who has wronged you, while also feeling compassionate and not devolving into the same demons who had tormented you.

It is a story that revolves on a man kidnapping and seeking revenge against a government official who tormented him in prison some years back. Will he go ahead with his plan for vengeance or will his better judgement take over?

It's a classic defiant film to the powers that be in Iran. A rebellion against the autocratic regime and it's agents of chaos and subjugation.

I think it's a satire of some sort, of Iranian society and how the people one can term "evil" also have their "human" side— vice versa. The duality of man. Having equal measure of showing empathy and cruelty at the same time. Everyone has that capacity.

Now wtf was that ending. That ending leaves things in an ambiguous manner. Well, one can assume dude is well and truly fk€d.

"They used violence, so we should do the same? Then there's no end".

Iranian Cinema 💚.

I stood applauding and at the same time terrified for Vahid, after finishing this, this Christmas afternoon, because, that squeaking footsteps at the end, could only mean one thing!

This entered my must see of 2025, after the Cannes premiere, because Iranian Cinema can't seem to put a foot wrong, Their movies almost, all the time centers around the totalitarian regime and how it impedes the life of ordinary Iranians and this film, as others before it, captures it, in the most brutally honest way possible. I mean i follow, Supreme Leader Khamenei on X, and his post, speaks nothing of what we see in these films. He is always on about, women's right, freedom of speech and what not.

I would want to believe this film tends towards a satire but a sad one, as you have pointed out, you could clearly see the struggle of conscience, guilt and revenge of Vahid, as he comes face to face with his tormentor, going through hoops, to confirm if he got the right man, even with almost certain confirmation, he still helps the man, birth a child.

Btw, Neon has become my favourite distributor of foreign language indie gems like this. They have totally snatched the chains of A24!. The speed at which this and Sentimental Value (2025) came to VOD is just so so brilliant...I remember how i used to jump through hoops, literally scraping through the "Dark Web" to get these kind of films, because these 2 evil corps, A24 and Mubi would hold on to movies like this for months and months 😒😩.

I finished this film, and i instantly went to the kitchen to see what the woman of the house, has served up for this most auspicious day of our Lord and Saviour, saw a mountain load of Rice and the robust laps of the chicken, i slaughtered last night, i felt guilty for ending the poor fella's life yesterday 😒, but as i consumed this meal today, i felt zero guilt...why? you ask.... because I have just seen, a truly special special film!! 🎉✨.

Side note: The scene where they were at the desert arguing what to do with the "Tormentor" is my absolutely favourite. Ali, Goli and Vahid were showing restraint whilst relieving the horrors he did to them, meanwhile Hamid, the only clearly thinking man among them, wanted to end the tormentor's life, there and there, because he knows, you don't give the devil, a second chance. Beautiful chaos shot on a spiralling desert, i scrapped through Pinterest for a textless picture of the scene, and it's been my wallpaper since ✌🏿
