Critics on Rotten Tomatoes

Top critics, in their words

All reviews
Rotten

It is talky, too long at 1 hour, 44 minutes and tends to be preachy and tedious.

Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times

Audiences hooked on Persian mainstream will devour this irreverent romantic comedy, spiced with saucy dialogue that spoofs traditional gender roles through gritted teeth.

Deborah Young, Variety

Worth seeing as a window into life in contemporary Iran.
