A realistic depiction of Revolutionary Iran

Rating: 9/10 (27 October 2012)

As an Iranian, I watched the movie with tremendous doubt about how accurate and unbiased it will depict Iran, and Islamic revolution of 1979. And I have to say, I was bewildered! The locations, events, and dialogs are so accurate. There are few guff here and there, specially with the Persian accent of some of the supporting characters. However, the movie manages to provide a very solid story line, prefect acting, appealing dialogs all based on a magnificent plot. The first scenes set the tone for the rest of the movie, and offers a very quick, yet accurate introduction about the event, and for the rest of the movie it succeeds to keep the audience both interested and entertained.
