A Moment of Innocence (1996) - Rated 24 Dec 2012
"A sweet, lyrical, and surprisingly funny film, with an absolutely perfect final shot. In other words, it's Iranian New Wave."

Close-Up (1990) - Rated 10 Dec 2012
"I love that the Iranian "Citizen Kane" isn't about a great man of industry, but a poor, slightly nutty cinephile, with dreams that are at once modest and deeply profound. The final scene flawlessly captures the appeal of the movies, at once totally fake and totally true."

Mulholland Drive (2001) - Rated 26 Nov 2012
"Some effective moments, but the actual resolution (everything really sucks it was all a dreeeeeeeam!!!) is pretty much an internet commenter's idea of what makes something deep and edgy."

Prometheus (2012) - Rated 22 Nov 2012
"Some missteps (the "thinning out the crew" sequences are more than a little perfunctory) but still the maddest, most ambitious sci-fi I've seen in years. The trick is not minding that it hurts."
