An engaging film about relationship struggles -- struggles that hurt both people in a couple, even if one of them is oblivious to the pain.

Jonathan Curiel, San Francisco Chronicle
Rotten

Although fascinating in its depiction of a surprisingly Westernized slice of contemporary life in Iran, the film awkwardly blends genres, with melodrama overwhelming Milani's attempts at social commentary.

Kevin Crust, Los Angeles Times
Fresh

The film does disintegrate into big speeches as it rounds to its climax - but through these characters, Milani hauntingly maps the souls of men and women at odds in a theocracy.

F.X. Feeney, L.A. Weekly
