Namrata Joshi The New Indian Express Unlike Rasoulof’s previous outing, the astute, potent, lyrical, and moving There is No Evil, Seed of the Sacred Fig left me a tad incredulous. But then I wondered about how his own vicissitudes of destiny are a case of truth being stranger than fiction. Jul 10, 2024 Full Review Justin Chang New Yorker A thriller of propulsive skill and blunt emotional force, marrying the muscularity of an action film to the psychological intensity of a chamber drama. May 30, 2024 Full Review Mark Asch Little White Lies Though the film is epic in length and ambitious in subject, it also has a hurried, shoestring quality. May 29, 2024 Full Review Sarah Manvel In Their Own League On its own merits, the movie is a nearly flawless depiction of how a family and a country can be torn apart, and whether it’s possible for them to heal. As an act of defiance, it’s a triumph. Jun 3, 2024 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Amazingly shot in secret inside Iran.
